BBC Wildlife magazine book reviews (1 Viewer)

[JTweedie]

I wonder if any of you here read BBC Wildlife magazine? Several months ago they stopped reviewing books which I thought was disappointing. While the reviews weren't in depth, it was good to get a heads up about what was new.

What are your favourite sources for learning about new books? Blogs? This website? Other publications? Coming soon section of retailer websites or even the publisher websites? Social media?

As Melanie says NHBS is a good source of upcoming books. British Birds does some decent reviews of bird books & also British Wildlife for any natural history titles that are relevant to the UK.

This. And I often buy from there as well since a good supplier needs support: I find their delivery service quick and efficient.

I use NHBS too, good to support an independent bookseller.

Must say I've never read an issue of British Birds or British Wildlife, although I have toyed with the idea of trying the latter.

I get both & particularly recommend the latter if you have broad natural history interests. I don't read everything, but plenty to keep me informed on the taxa I'm interested in.
