eBook Reviews: Coming Soon!

Have an ereader? Reading ebooks on your laptop, iPad, or phone?  Not sure what to download next? You go to the library for book suggestions and reference questions, but where do you go when you need ebook suggestions? Hubbard Public Library, of course!

We will be offering ebook reviews here on our blog monthly. You will be able to learn more about the book, its author, and each review will include multiple ways for you to access the book.

As always, your comments and questions are welcome. Let us know when you read a title and if you agree or disagree with the review. Are we neglecting your favorite genre? Tell us!

Are you an author or publisher with an ebook you want reviewed? Email amy@beyond-books.org for submission information and guidelines.
