Chapbook Review

Chapbook Review

a directory of chapbook reviews, presses, and contests

About

Chapbook Review grew out of a desire to create an online resource where links to online reviews of chapbooks could be gathered together and a listing of chapbook-related publishers, contests, and review sites could be housed. The site isn’t so much a literary journal as it is a space where writers, readers, reviewers, and publishers find a common ground.  We also hope to share news of new chapbooks being published from 2020 onward (just send us the cover image, a brief description of author and book, and the publisher’s name and website, and we’ll post it to our site).
