Kirkus Reviews is shutting down. I can recall tuning in to quoted reviews on the inside of paperbacks when I was
about 15 or so. After a little unscientific tabulating (in my efforts to read Books That Mattered) it seemed to me that
NYTBR was significant, but
Kirkus was King. According to
this link (via
ALD)
Ron Charles says, "For me, they were the last reliable source of negative reviews." Yes: and positive, too.
