    Book Smuggler Specialties

    We do at least two of these conversational-style joint reviews a month
    ------------------------------------
    Interviews with authors whose books we have reviewed
    ------------------------------------
    Authors whose books we have reviewed talk about their writing inspirations and influences
    ------------------------------------
    Reviews of books that have made it to the big screen
    ------------------------------------
    Monthly feature in which we "dare" guest reviewers to read & review books outside of their comfort zones
    ------------------------------------
    Feature in which each Smuggler reads and reviews a book that the other has already reviewed
    ------------------------------------
    Weekly feature in which each Smuggler discloses upcoming titles they cannot wait to read
    ------------------------------------
    Feature in which we ask the often controversial question: Do Covers Matter?
    ------------------------------------

      About Us

      We are two completely obsessed, sad, sick addicts when it comes to books. Faced with threats and cynicisms from our significant others and because of the massive amounts of time and money we spend at Amazon.com, we resorted to getting books delivered to our offices and then smuggling them into our homes (in huge handbags) to avoid detection. Here we found a perfect outlet for our obsession! Reviews, recommendations, and other ponderings are our specialty.
