From 1st April 2010 our address is changing at The Truth About Books. Our new address is:
TTAB, PO Box 4732, Sheffield, S17 9BZ.
Any review copies or other correspondence should be sent to this address. However, to smooth this transitional period, items sent to our old PO Box address will still be delivered up to the END OF APRIL. After that date, no mail will be accessible by us and will be returned.If you have any queries regarding this change, please contact us using the links on the Contact Us page on our main website.
We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause, but hope that any disruption will be kept to a minimum.
Regards,The TTAB Team
EVER BOUGHT A BOOK ON THE STRENGTH OF THE REVIEWS ON THE BACK???
If you are like us (and probably one of the many thousands of book lovers across the globe) and have had the misfortune of spending your hard-earned cash on an apparent "best-seller"; you will probably also have experienced the dull thud as you bang your head against the wall, thinking "Why did I listen to the reviews on the back?!" The truth is: reviews found on books are usually self-promoting, PR stunt-type hype and not necessarily a true reflection of the books' quality at all.
It is our aim to tell the truth about books, but don't for one second assume that that is synonymous with us creating a blog to 'diss' authors' work - to the contrary - our intention is to provide an honest appraisal of each and every book we read. If the book is any good - it'll get a good review. If it's awful and a tragedy to the literary world - then it won't. It's that simple.
