Have you written a review?
Almost all book reviews on our site are submitted to EM by others. If you’d like to submit a review of a nonfiction, fiction, or poetry book, please click here.
Want me to review your book?
Due to time constraints, I seldom accept books for review. I am not able to accept e-books, fiction, poetry, or anything not on the list below. Please don’t ask!
(Emails that start out something like, “I know that you don’t usually review fiction, but, given your interests, the subject of my novel would be perfect for you..” don’t receive replies.)
Occasionally, as time and interest permit, I accept review copies of nonfiction books on the following topics:
- literary criticism, history of literary movements, biographies of writers
- the Beat Generation
- Surrealism
How to send items for possible review
If you’d like to send a book, please email me to see if I have an interest in reading and possibly reviewing it.
When sending your query, please include a synopsis of the book, the publication date, publisher, and links to where it may be purchased.
Has your work been published in Empty Mirror?
If you’re a contributor to EM, and you’ve recently published a book, please send me the details. I’ll post them to our news page and to social media. And, if someone else has reviewed your book, please encourage them to submit to the review to us.

To Denise:
Book Review Request:
title: The 2020 Candidate
author: Lloyd Bruce Miller
The narrator is considering running for president of the United States
in the year 2020. I put it down as nonfiction, meaning that the author
is the narrator, a real person. It’s relatively short, 11000 words, 90
pages.
The book can be found and purchased only on the Lulu publishing
site, http://www.lulu.com. There’s an e-book for only $2.99. But if you’re
interested in reviewing it, I would, if you wished, send you a free
paperback. Lulu is regarded as the publisher of the e-book. The
paperback is self-published, printed, manufactured and sent by Lulu.
The author,
Lloyd Bruce Miller

Thanks, Bruce, for telling me about this book. Unfortunately, I’m not able to accept any books for review right now. Good luck with the book! Denise

Hi Don,
I’m not able to visit a website to consider books for possible review. However, if the books fall into one of the fairly narrow categories described on this page, please email me with the necessary information.
best,
Denise
