Weekly review of books byThe New York Times
The New York Times Book Review (NYTBR ) is a weekly paper-magazinesupplement to the Sunday edition ofThe New York Times in which current non-fiction and fiction books are reviewed. It is one of the most influential and widely readbook review publications in the industry.[ 2] The magazine's offices are located nearTimes Square in New York City.
TheNew York Times has published a book review section sinceSaturday, October 10, 1896 , announcing: "We begin today the publication of a Supplement which contains reviews of new books ... and other interesting matter ... associated with news of the day."[ 3] In 1911, the review was moved to Sundays, on the theory that it would be more appreciatively received by readers with a bit of time on their hands.[ 4]
The target audience is an intelligent, general-interest adult reader.[ 2] TheTimes publishes two versions each week, one with a cover price sold via subscription, bookstores, and newsstands; the other with no cover price included as an insert in each Sunday edition of theTimes (the copies are otherwise identical).
Each week, theNYTBR receives 750 to 1000 books from authors and publishers in the mail, of which 20 to 30 are chosen for review.[ 2] Books are selected by the "preview editors" who read over 1,500 advance galleys a year.[ 5] The selection process is based on finding books that are important and notable, as well as discovering new authors whose books stand above the crowd.[ 2] Self-published books are generally not reviewed as a matter of policy.[ 2] Books not selected for review are stored in a "discard room" and then sold.[ 2] As of 2006[update] ,Barnes & Noble arrived about once a month to purchase the contents of the discard room, and the proceeds are then donated byNYTBR to charities.[ 2] Books that are actually reviewed are usually donated to the reviewer.[ 2]
As of 2015, all review critics are freelance; theNYTBR does not have staff critics.[ 6] In prior years, theNYTBR did have in-house critics, or a mix of in-house and freelance.[ 2] For freelance critics, they are assigned an in-house "preview editor" who works with them in creating the final review.[ 2] Freelance critics might be employees ofThe New York Times whose main duties are in other departments.[ 6] They also include professionalliterary critics , novelists, academics, and artists who write reviews for theNYTBR on a regular basis.[ 6]
Other duties on staff include a number of senior editors and a chief editor; a team of copy editors; a letter pages editor who reads letters to the editor; columnists who write weekly columns, such as the "Paperback Row" column; a production editor; a web and Internet publishing division; and other jobs.[ 2] In addition to the magazine there is an Internet site that offers additional content, including audio interviews with authors, called the "Book Review Podcast".[ 2]
The book review publishes each week the widely cited and influentialNew York Times Best Seller list , which is created by the editors of theTimes "News Surveys" department.[ 7]
In 2021, on the 125th anniversary of theBook Review ,Parul Sehgal a staff critic and former editor at theBook Review , wrote a review of the NYTBR titled "Reviewing the Book Review".[ 8]
"Inside The New York Times Book Review" is the oldest and most popular podcast at The New York Times. The debut episode was released on April 30, 2006 and the show has been recorded weekly ever since.[ 9]
1983Legion court case [ edit ] In 1983,William Peter Blatty sued theNew York Times Book Review for failing to include his 1983 novel,Legion , in its best-seller list.The New York Times had previously claimed that it based its "best-seller list" is based on computer-processed sales figures from 2,000 bookstores across the United States. Blatty contended thatLegion had sold enough copies to be included on the list. Lawyers forThe New York Times did not deny this, but stated that the content of its best-seller list is a subjectively editorial compilation. The court ruled in favor ofThe New York Times , relying on theFirst Amendment precedent ofMiami Herald Publishing Co. v. Tornillo (1974). [ 12] [ 13]
Best Books of the Year and Notable Books [ edit ] Each year since 1968, around the beginning of December, a list of notable books and/or editor's choice ("Best Books") is announced. Beginning in 2004, it consists of a "100 Notable Books of the Year" list[ 14] which containsfiction andnon-fiction titles, 50 of each. From the list of 100, 10 books are awarded the "Best Books of the Year" title, five each of fiction and non-fiction. Other year-end lists include the Best Illustrated Children's Books, in which 10 books are chosen by a panel of judges.

In 2010,Stanford professors Alan Sorenson andJonah Berger published a study examining the effect on book sales from positive or negative reviews in theNew York Times Book Review .[ 69] [ 70] They found all books benefited from positive reviews, while only popular or well-known authors were negatively impacted by negative reviews.[ 69] [ 70] Lesser-known authors benefited from negative reviews (i.e., bad publicity boosted book sales).[ 69] [ 70]
A 2012 study by writerRoxane Gay found that 90% ofNew York Times book reviews published in 2011 were on books by white authors, whereas2010 United States census found that only 72% of the population was White, defined as includingHispanic and Latino Americans who identify as white.[ 71]
