Here at the Writers Book Mall, we provide unbiased product info and customer reviews on
thousands of books, and provide links to sites where you can make easy, secure
purchases.
There are lots of great books for writers - books on writing, books on writing
jobs, books on the writing process and writing techniques, software and tools
for writers, books about software and tools for writers, etc.
The problem is finding them and matching up the right writing books
with the right readers...um, writers.
There is a sea of writing knowledge out there in print, waiting for
you to come and get acquainted.
So, in our own small effort to promote good writing
non-fiction, technical, business, fiction, whatever) and writers, we've
organized books for writers into categories (with a little common sense) to
help you find them, and added our own built-in searches to take you straight
to the right places on our affiliates' sites. The whole idea is to get you and
those writers' books together. You can
browse our categories, where you'll also find short introductions to each
subject, our featured writers' books, and links to more writers' books.

Customer Review: I wanted to like this book. Everyone I knew loved it and said I had to read this book. I didn't make it past Italy. I was disappointed that she was paid to take this trip (book advance) and wondered how much of it was manufactured for the book. Also, to me, her tone seemed haughty and... more info
Customer Review: Good morning to thee, potential buyer of this Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, good morning! I am writing this review to hopefully prevent you from making the same mistake I once did, to wit I mean, buying this book! There are many reasons why buying this book would... more info
Customer Review: The book is generally poorly written. It is extremely colloquial, and thus could be of use for teaching younger students. However, for an educated audience (college level), it is extremely weak and close to useless. I was assigned this book for an introductory writing course at my college and was... more info
Customer Review: Had Twain stopped after the first section, in which he describes riverboat piloting and his exploits therein, I would have come away with a positive impression of the book. His piloting writings were entertaining and interesting, even though not particularly relevant in today's world. However... more info
Customer Review: I was mildly amused at first, but as the novel bogged down halfway through, I couldn't help but wonder if there was ever going to be an ending? What trivial and boring lives Austen satirized. Yes, this is satire, but it is not high satire. It's barely noticeable satire. I finally put the book aside,... more info
Customer Review: I had to buy this for my honors thesis course in college, but ended up never having to use it. You could easily find anything useful in this book for free online. This book was too long and too expensive.
Customer Review: Our order was scheduled for 24 hour delivery. It disappeared. Called Mon. about Thursday's shipment. (Fri. due date.) I was told I could get a replacement by talking to someone at the end of the day. Replacement was sent without an additional call. (Thanks!) Product arrived Wed. evening.
Customer Review: My daughter had to read this book over the summer for a grade in her Honors English class. I liked the fact that it was cheap, but on the other hand, what I paid for shipping I could have went ahead and purchased it out of the store. I wasn't to thrilled about that!
Customer Review: Gave this seller a poor review for slow shipping and a book in poor condition. Happy to report that they quickly responded to my complaint email and issued me a refund.
Customer Review: where to bloody begin.... ah.. in my junior year i and everyone else in class was forced to read the book and watch the horrible origanal slow and boring movie. after we got done with it almost everyone in the whole dang room yelled out that it suck, right at the same time. both this and the great... more info
Customer Review: This book is a must have for anyone attending college that has to write papers. It will guide you through citing your references correctly. I would have been lost without it. I was happy that this book was cheaper on Amazon versus our bookstore, and other retailers in the area.
Customer Review: Great job! I ordered a total of three books with my order. I paid extra fees for quick shipping, but not for this book. However, this book arrived first.
Customer Review: It was not the book advertised--close, it was the red dot 2009 MLA updates but no APA updates. My professor said it will work--but really need updated version. Need to be careful you are getting the right product. I did not realize it was the wrong one until my professor said it does not have the... more info
Customer Review: Research is most definitely a craft and as with all research books, there is a great deal written about scientific research and medical research. Generic research guides do little to offer help to Musicological research. Yet this is a helpful resource tool if taken generically.
Customer Review: This is the classic book on how to write. If you've already read it, you don't need me to tell you how good it is. If you haven't, then stop reading this review and go get it--either online for free or in an inexpensive paper version. I'll just suggest three books to back it up on your shelf. Strunk... more info
