A great addition.
Will you do the same for theatre reviews? Michael Gill's were illuminating
I will do, but I was surprised how long it took me to actually do this page. I'm guessing (hoping) there isn't as many theatre reviews.
I also want to do wee things like group together the book reviews under particular publishers. I'm thinking of the obvious ones of Pluto Press, Verso, AK Press . . . those kind of publishers.
