Kirkus Reviews, founded in 1933, is published biweekly and reviews, 2 to 3 months before the publication date, approximately 5,000 titles per year: fiction, mysteries, sci-fi, translations, nonfiction, and children's and young-adult books. The reviews are reliable and authoritative, written by specialists selected for their knowledge and expertise in a particular field.
It takes the Kirkus staff, plus more than 100 freelance writers, to cover such a voluminous and wide-ranging amount of books. Below is an introduction to the people at Kirkus.

 | Reader Beware
August 15, 2008 - Eighth-grade grammar is of direct use for very few professions. Copyediting is one of them. Good copyeditors, who remember eighth-grade as well as, or better than, their first kisses, are worth their weight in platinum. And when copyediting is not done well, everybody suffers. Our reputation to the contrary, Kirkus reviewers can be a forgiving lot: We typically review from galleys and have grown accustomed to reading past typos and other errors, confident that the publication team's copyeditors will correct them in the finished books. This doesn't always happen. Consider the case of one of the best young-adult books of the year.
