Book Reviewers Needed

Can you commit to reading a book in 2 weeks and then writing us a killer review?

If so get in touch with the KitschMix Team ASAP.

We’re looking for enthusiastic LGBTQ+ readers who can write a short review for our website.

It’s simple. We’ll send you a preview copy of a book – you read and write a review – and email it to us!

What we’re looking for…

People who love reading and who get excited about books. People who just can’t wait to tell everyone all about the great novel they’ve just read. People who understand that the reader wants to know what the reviewer thoughts about the book and not just what’s written on the back cover.

People who can write in a knowledgeable but conversational tone, akin to a good quality blog post. And importantly, people who understand the importance of deadlines.


How to apply…

Write an original review of a book that you know well and that you’d be happy for us to publish on KitschMix. It doesn’t matter if you loved it or loathed it.
Include the idea of the plot, but make the bulk of what you write your opinion of the book. The ideal length is 300-500 words. Use the review format which you’ll find here and please check your grammar and spelling.

We’d also like to see the titles of your five favourite books – in no particular order, and please provide your name, email address, and post code.

Please submit your review here or send it in the body of an email to [email protected]. If emailing, please use the subject line ‘I’d like to be a book reviewer’. Put your review in the body of the email rather than as an attachment, please.

What we offer…

We have excellent connections with many of the major publishing houses and with some of the smaller independent publishers. We’re sent hundreds of books every month, all of them crying out to be reviewed.

If you’re accepted onto our panel, and after you’ve had a review for the first book we send you accepted, you’ll be free to choose books from those on offer.

You should only ask for books that you think you’d enjoy. You can take books when it suits you and according to your own schedule, not ours.

Once you have the book, we want you to send the review within 2 weeks and when the review is completed, the book is yours to do with as you wish. The books we send ARE review copies. They’re usually of the same quality as a book you would buy in a shop, but quite often you may receive an uncorrected proof copy, which you can’t resell.
