Book Reviews Quotes

I rarely read or buy a book because of a review Picture Quote #1
The last publicized center of American writing was Manhattan. Its writers became known as the New York Intellectuals. With important connections to publishing, and universities, with access to the major book reviews, they were able to pose as the vanguard of American culture when they were so obsessed with the two Joes--McCarthy and Stalin--that they were to produce only two artists, Saul Bellow and Philip Roth, who left town Picture Quote #1
I rarely write in my own voice except in book reviews and memoirs; otherwise, I am writing in mediated voices, modulated in terms of the characters whom the voices express Picture Quote #1
I started to write book reviews as a means of recording my thoughts about what I’d read before all memory of them vanished Picture Quote #1
Literary men now routinely tell their readers about their divorces. One literary man who reviews books wrote, in reviewing a study of Ruskin, that he had never read a book by Ruskin but that the study confirmed him in his belief that he didn’t want to read a book by Ruskin. This man very often writes about his family life Picture Quote #1
E-books are great for instant gratification - you see a review somewhere of a book that interests you, and you can start reading it five minutes later Picture Quote #1

As I review the great history of our nation, community organizers have been at the center of so many of our great social movements Picture Quote #1
My husband and I are huge bibliophiles. He’s always reading ‘The New York Times Book Review’ and then ordering 20 books online Picture Quote #1
Shorter work - personal essays and book reviews - allow me to take a break from working on a book, which is good for the book and for its author Picture Quote #1
I have turned off Google Alerts and don’t Google my name or my pen names. I don’t go on message boards. I don’t read my book reviews Picture Quote #1
Why do I do this every Sunday? Even the book reviews seem to be the same as last week’s. Different books same reviews Picture Quote #1
I have a confession to make. For years, I earned a living - or a sort of living - writing negative book reviews Picture Quote #1
Advertisements
What with the reviews of critics, the sarcasms of one’s friends, the reproaches of one’s own taste, there’s precious little peace after publishing a book Picture Quote #1
If I like a book, I tend to read the author’s entire collection. But I choose mainly through personal recommendations, general word of mouth and book reviews Picture Quote #1
Most books reviews aren’t very well-written. They tend to be more about the reviewer than the book Picture Quote #1
Note that the #1 Top Reviewer at Amazon (4550 book reviews) is Harriet Klausner, formerly an acquisitions librarian in Pennsylvania. This just goes to show that librarians were destined to rule the Web Picture Quote #1
The unflattering reviews are painful for short periods of time; the badly written ones are deeply, deeply insulting. That reviewer took no time to really read the book Picture Quote #1
I don't read reviews because by then it's too late - whatever anyone says, the book won't change. It is written Picture Quote #1
Advertisements
The first function of a book review should be, I believe, to give some idea of the contents and character of the book Picture Quote #1
I mean, when you’re tired of book reviews, you’re tired of life Picture Quote #1
Book reviews have never helped me. Most of them erred in their interpretations and their work has been a waste of time Picture Quote #1
Why do I do this every Sunday? Even the book reviews seem to be the same as last week’s. Different books same reviews Picture Quote #1
We set up a beta site, a test site, with movie, music and book reviews. If you’re reading them and you want to buy a book or a ticket for a movie that’s reviewed on the site, you can do that without leaving our site Picture Quote #1
My generation was not only maligned in book reviews and attacked in graduate school but we lived to see our adored and adorable daughters wonder why feminism had become a dirty word Picture Quote #1

The authors of book reviews would consider themselves dishonored were they to mention, as they should, the subject of the book Picture Quote #1
