For Publishers

Find my next read

Tell us what the book is for and how much time you have. We'll suggest up to five from the lists our editors have put together, and say plainly why each one fits. No sign-up.

Not quite there? Ask our editors

Tell us what you're after in your own words and we'll reply by email with a few suggestions.

How we choose your shortlist

  • Every suggestion comes from a list our editors put together, with the note we wrote about it.
  • We only match on what we know: page counts from publisher and library records, the genre, and the lists a book is on. If we don't know how long a book is, it won't appear when you ask for something short.
  • No publisher can pay to appear here. How we work.
  • When you tell us a book missed and why, we use it to improve the lists.
