A new online bookish magazine
Bookshelf Magazine is a new online magazine for book lovers.
Bookshelf Magazine will be a website for book lovers, publishing articles on its website multiple times per week, with biannual 'flip-through' traditional style magazines, available to read online. In the future we'll be launching other content, like videos and podcasts!
We want to be the go-to source for all bookish content, in all genres. We'll publish a new book review weekly, we'll let you know about all the upcoming new releases, we'll write some opinion pieces and open up discussion, and we'll have some fun, too!
We'll have our finger on the pulse of the publishing industry, too, and give booklovers all the industry information they want to know, including bestseller lists, publishing trends, and an insight into what it's like to work in the industry.
Most importantly, we want to get stuck into the community! We'll feature your favourite bookish content creators, shout out some fantastic bookstagrammers and book bloggers and booktubers, we'll share our favourite creator-founded content, and keep you up to date with all the readathons and community events!
READERS
