About The Unseen Review

Welcome to The Unseen Review! I’m Jess, a lifelong reader now working as a book critic (the dream).

I read pretty widely. My foundations are in contemporary fiction, particularly literary and speculative work (with a special emphasis on where the two overlap), but that doesn’t mean there won’t be nonfiction or classics to mull over, too.

The aim of The Unseen Review is to highlight what books are worth your precious reading hours, hopefully pushing you outside your comfort zone from time to time, and scouring both the world of the new release and the undiscovered backlist gem.

It’s also my intention to help readers get more out of their books, to share some of what I’ve learnt in my 10+ years reviewing and analysing novels.
