Steven Lewis

Author of Peering Through Infinity Mirrors of Love & Grief

Very flattered by the review, of course. And grateful for the praise. Beyond all that, though (and not to be underestimated), I am so impressed by how articulate and probing and spot-on the review turned out to be, in particular the reviewer’s understanding that the book “refuses the tidy version of mourning.” I also very much appreciated the accompanying graphics. I’ve been writing professionally for nearly sixty years and have rarely (rarely!) come across such a compelling and incisive review of anyone’s work. Thank you.

Miguel Wandenbergh

Miguel Wandenbergh

Author of Journey from the End of the World

First, I was glad that my sci-fi novel qualified for a professional review, and then I was impressed by the serious consideration, and proof of a thorough reading of the book. The synopsis is detailed but does not reveal too much, encouraging readers to find the truth.
Finally, I was a bit overwhelmed by their “take” on my novel, honest.

Author of Stillness and Survival

Aida’s review made me choke up. Her review was beautiful, heartfelt, reflective, honest, and sensitive to the subject matter. This is one of the most in depth and insightful reviews of my upcoming memoir that I have received. She got it and understood why I wrote the book. I really appreciate her taking the time to read and review my story in such depth. My hope is that the book will help others to navigate their own mental health issues.

James Wood

James Wood

Author of The Arch Mage

Book Nerdection’s reviews are top notch, insightful, and witty in their own right! I highly recommend their review services to any author looking for an honest take on their work! Book Nerdection reviews offer so much more than other editorial review services (like quotes from the novel itself) and specifics that could only be known by a reviewer that actually read the book without cutting any corners. There are several good sites out there offering reviews, but I truly believe that Book Nerdection is a cut above.

Book Nerdection gave me one of my first reviews for my first novel, and they did it with efficiency and professionalism.

I greatly appreciate them for their services and would recommend it for any new or returning author!

Stephan M. Sechi

Stephan M. Sechi

Author of Blood Vendetta

Nice review, thanks 🙂 Thoughtful and accurate, without giving away any spoilers. I only wish the reviewer had taken note of the many cult fictional “easter eggs” that are scattered throughout the story and include references to vintage Spaghetti Western plots, William S. Burroughs novels (The Western Lands), 1960s-80s song titles and lyrics, and the spirit guide character, Raven, who quotes from TS Elliot’s The Wasteland – and once or twice, Edgar Allen Poe, of course – though to be fair, so far no other reviewer has noticed that stuff either :). Thanks also for the Book Nerdection Excellent Read award. Thanks to you folks, I can now refer to myself as an “award-winning” author… 🙂

Dennis Barger

Dennis Barger

Author of A Secret Soldier's Confession

The review was completed in just under eight weeks. The reviewer, Faiza Bashir, did an excellent write up. She really captured the intent of my book being focused on the adventure plot, combining history and current day in a fast paced action story. She is correct that there is not deep exploration of the characters, as they are presented to support the plot. Well done.

Beth H. Macy

Beth H. Macy

Author of Moscow Misdirection

Very complete review. Covered the plot, the characters, and the pacing. Well written too.

Author of Rudeness Rehab: Reclaiming Civility in the Workplace and Your Home Space

I greatly valued the time and attention that the reviewer gave to my book. I sometimes see reviews and wonder if the reviewer really took the time to carefully read the book. Wajeeha clearly did and produced a high quality review for my book…. for which I am so very grateful.

Daniel Abrams

Immortality Bytes: Digital Minds Don't Get Hungry

The Book Nerdection review honestly and comprehensively appraised a complex (perhaps hyper-nerdy) novel. Its criticisms were fair, and that made the praise more impactful. Honored to get their “Must Read” seal of approval.

Shannon Vierra

Shannon Vierra

Author of The Chimera Snare

I strongly recommend Book Nerdection’s Book Review Services. My reviewer digested, dissected, and understood the entire story, as evidenced by their thorough review. I’ve tried out a few review services, and honestly, nothing compares to the depth and quality of service I received here. I will continue to use Book Nerdection’s review service for my up-and-coming books and will recommend them to my fellow author friends as well.

As an author searching for book reviews, I was very happy to work with Book Nerdection. Professional set-up, good communication from staff, and a very thorough review was received. The site offered options for various response times, and my “expedited” request was received in less than three weeks. The timing was perfect for having a great pre-launch review. Not only does Book Nerdection send you a direct link to the review, it will also be posted in other locations, such as Goodreads. Definitely recommend for authors looking for a reliable source for reviews.

Author of 'Immunity for Murder' - The Veronica Taft Story

With graphic narratives, true crime can be a difficult genre for some. ‘Immunity for Murder’ was one of those. Thankfully, it fell into the well qualified hands of reviewer Andrew Okiemute who clearly read every detail in the book and did an outstanding job with his review.  I did a lot of research before choosing Book Nerdection.  I chose wisely.  Thank you, Andrew and Book Nerdection for a great and timely review. I will certainly consider using your service in the future.

Thank you Book Nerdection for such an incredible review that surpassed all expectations.

Early and positive reviews are so important and gratifying, so thank you for everything you do.

Author of The Birthday of Eternity

Service was prompt and easy. Wajeeha Bashir’s summary was accurate and set the stage well. I liked the quotation she selected and I especially appreciated her attention to the Prologue and Epilogue. Her critique addressed nicely the points that are particularly crucial to mystery readers (structure, tempo), and to readers of historical fiction as well. Overall, a fine job!

Richard Fast

Author Of End Man OBESITY: it's NOT what YOU THINK it is! &

Reviewing a book is a big job, and doing it thoroughly is no small task. It’s easy to tell if a book reviewer is punching time or if it was a genuine evaluation. Having read a number of reviews from different reviewers, I can say that the Book Nerdiction reviewers take their task seriously, and they give honest and helpful reviews that potential readers will appreciate.

August Astrom

August Astrom

Author of Wolf on the Fells

I found my review very well written. I really appreciated that my reviewer emphasized the underlying themes of love over the more superficial plot concerning the protagonist against the wolf. That shows me that my reviewer was a pro and really understood the message of the novel.

Thank you so much for this opportunity! Book Nerdection gave my work more respect than it ever deserved, and for that I’m very grateful!

Guy Quartley

Bryan Foreman

Bryan Foreman

Author of Discovering Mom

Book Nerdection provides an invaluable service to both authors and readers, and for that I am extremely grateful. It’s hard to get someone to review your book theses days… not without paying an arm and a leg. Book Nerdection is very affordable, and their reviews are top quality. My reviewer in particular did a spectacular job! Her critique of “Discovering Mom” was smart and thorough, and her analysis was spot on! I will definitely use Book Nerdection again for my next book, hopefully in the very near future.

Author of Vermilion Sunrise

I appreciated the reviewer’s attention to detail and the spoiler-free nature of the review. It was also clear the reviewer attentively read my novel and was writing something that would help potential readers decide whether it was their kind of story. Thank you!

Brad Norris

Brad Norris

Author of Division: The Chronicles of the Fallen States of America

This is an excellent service that any author should consider. It is reasonably priced and the turn-around time was faster than estimated. Reading is subjective so it is fair to expect that the reviewer will bring their likes and dislikes to their review – that’s what an honest review means. My hope is the review will interest other readers in the book and I believe the Book Review Service with its reach and following has the potential to connect with those readers. I definitely recommend it.

Muhammad Rahim

Muhammad Rahim

Author of Khuda Buksh: The Pioneer of Life Insurance in Bangladesh

Thanks for your review. I know that book reviewing is a daunting task. After I received the review, I felt that the reviewer had carefully read all the details in the book and had a clear understanding of the social, economic, and political background of the countries involved before writing the review. The reviewer correctly analyzed the title of the subject and showed how the title explains the subject matter.
I am glad that the reviewer placed the review in a framework that made sense for the readers to “take” on the book. The reviewer provided some information about the author and the circumstances of the text’s production. The reviewer made a logical and sensible analysis of the work of Khuda Buksh. I have received several reviews before, but this review made a huge difference in the review quality. I was a little surprised that the quote “what a lovely man he was . . . I must say.” was extracted from the book to reflect the personality of Khuda Buksh- the wizard of insurance. It is noteworthy.
Bottom line: The reviewer is highly experienced and professional, and I would highly recommend using the expertise of Book Nerdection for any book review.

Winnie Pagora

Winnie Pagora

Author of Unclutter: A Survivor's Story

Being a debut self-published author is scary since it’s really hard to get fair reviews. And without reviews, our books are not given a chance. Thank you so much, Book Nerdection team for reviewing my book in a detailed and beautiful manner.
I’m honored to receive your “must read” label and am glad to have earned it as you don’t just give it away to everyone, making your service 100% authentic.
I will recommend your review service to all the authors I know and on social media.
Thank you again for making me feel like a real author.

Best,
Winnie

Author of Woman in the Wheelhouse

I was delighted with Chantal Onyango’s review, of course because it was so enthusiastically positive, but also because this is a writer/reviewer who uses words like ‘orthographic’ and ‘quotidian’. AND, because the service provided exactly what they said it would provide. No small thing. I’m grateful to learn about it, and having used it, will definitely use it again for the books of authors that Head to Wind Publishing publishes.
