We do not review  poetry or picture books, any other genre will be considered.  We only give HONEST reviews but we do try to be constructive and fair. We will not take down a review because you don't like the rating.  We no longer review Self Published works (unless previously reviewed or ad space is purchased, see below).

    Guaranteed Review: If you buy any bundle ad space that book is guaranteed to be reviewed HOWEVER the rating will be completely honest, one to five stars. This includes self published books. Reviewers get a long list of books that they can review and this is a way to stand out. Buying ad space is not mandatory just an option.

    Please note: We ONLY accept pdf, epub and mobi formats.

    If you have a book with Dreamspinner, Evernight, EXtasy, Imagjinn, NineStar, Roane or Totally Bound Group: We receive books from these publishers. You only need to fill out this form if you're adding a giveaway. Thank you! ​
    We DO NOT review self published books unless previously reviewed by us or with purchased ad space. Add 'previously reviewed' under publisher name. ​
Once submitted you can email us the PDF - thetbrpile(at)gmail.com  . If you don't want to add the PDF until your book is accepted that is perfectly fine. Having the PDF ready just makes things quicker on our end.

We get about ten submissions a day plus we review for several publishers so please be patient. If we haven't gotten back to you in one week feel free to send an email.

Please note, we get these pdfs/arcs with the intent to review and then discard. NEVER will they be sold or shared. Each reviewer at The TBR Pile is either an author themselves or works in the publishing industry. We understand the terrible book pirate epidemic up close.

Thanks for your submission!

Do you consider M/M or F/F?

Yes, we review GLBT books.

Is this only for Romance?

No! We review a lot of romance/erotica simply because that is what's submitted most frequently.

If you reject a novel from the author will you consider other novels by the same author?

Of course!

I need my book reviewed at a certain time, can I ask for a date?

You can ask for a date but that does not guarantee it'll be read by then.
