We’d love to hear about your book.
EcoLit Books reviews new fiction, nonfiction, poetry and graphic novels that explore our relationship with the natural world and the animals we share it with. Our reviewers are volunteers, so we can only take on a small number of the books we hear about. That’s a reflection of our limited time, not your book.
What we review
- Books with environmental or animal themes, from literary fiction and eco-mysteries to science, memoir and poetry.
- As a vegan-managed site, we do not review books that glamorize hunting, fishing or meat/fish/dairy consumption.
- We’re not reviewing children’s books right now, because we’re still looking for a children’s book reviewer. Interested? Get in touch.
How we choose
We review every pitch we receive that falls within these guidelines. A clear description and a few lines on why the book fits EcoLit Books help a lot. Please do not email our contributors directly. Relevant books are sent to all contributors for consideration. But we all have plenty of books to read!
What happens next
If your book is a fit, we will email you, usually within two weeks. If you haven’t heard from us by then, it means we couldn’t take it on this time. Please don’t mail physical books unless we ask for them.
Another way to reach our readers
If you’d like to put your book in front of our readers right away, take a look at our advertising options. Many authors use them alongside a pitch.
