The Mission

The mission is simple, to continue to share and offer book recommendations and reading resources so you can continue your love of reading.

To accomplish this, we share book recommendations based on our own reading history and thorough research. We may also share trusted reviews of reading-related products, practical “how-to” guides, and other valuable information related to reading and books.

We also strive to connect book lovers together in an online community, where they can discuss books they’ve read in a safe virtual environment.

At Epic Book Society, we believe that books are not just pages of words, but a tool to help us change our lives and nurture our imaginations.

Meet The Team

Who Are The Epic Book Society Bookworms?

All of the Epic Book Society team members are avid readers and book enthusiasts. Together, our long list of knowledge about books and authors helps to bring you carefully crafted recommendations based on personal reading.

If we’re not writing, we’re reading. It’s what we do every day.

The writers of this blog came to Epic Book Society as reading enthusiasts, and together we have read thousands of books in a variety of genres.

We are not only readers, but writers too. This means we are well-placed to discuss what constitutes as good writing and storytelling. Our team members are also parents and teachers, and are well placed to talk about what books children love, as well as books that can be educational to children too.

In addition to our core team of readers, we also have an online community in our Facebook group who actively share their reading recommendations. If we agree with them, we may feature their recommendations on this blog too.

We also share recommendations from industry experts, such as teachers and professionals we are connected with.

However, we never accept payment for a review or promotion on this blog. The reason for this is that we want to maintain the quality and standards of the books we recommend.

We are happy to be a platform that welcomes new authors and Indie authors, as well as authors who want to self-publish or promote their books.

However, we hand-select and personally review books that we recommend and insist on reading any book we promote on this blog.

We put in volunteer hours to read these books and ensure their worthy of a recommendation.

What We Do

As a team, we have years of reading under our belts, and that’s why we want to share everything we know with you. Why? Because finding a new book to read is no easy task. Especially when you’ve just finished a series you have fallen in love with.

Epic Book Society was created to ensure you never hit a reading slump. To ensure this, we have a selection of primary goals we strive towards:

Help readers of any genre find book recommendations based on their interests
Offer helpful tips and tricks on how to get out of reading slumps and continue your love of reading
