About Us
After a year of publishing the Sacramento Book Review, during a time when print newspaper book review sections were on the decline, being canceled, or being moved into the Arts section of a daily newspaper, 1776 Productions challenged that trend by expanding instead of shrinking. The San Francisco Book Review was launched in September 2009.
SFBR is a 32-page free monthly tabloid, reviewing about 200 books each month. Issues feature regular reviews in more than 30 categories, ranging from memoirs and biographies to science fiction and fantasy. SFBR also includes author interviews (Audible Authors – www.sacramentobookreview.com/audible_authors.php), who have new books being released that month, a calendar of upcoming local events, and whatever else catches our fancy. Special editions throughout the year will include children’s book editions, holiday issues, and unique themes.
SFBR is distributed around the San Francisco and the Bay Area in bookstores, libraries, coffee shops, colleges, and other gathering places each month.
