Review: Better Than Expected - Better than I expected from the "look inside this book" and mixed reviews on desertcart. Overall look of book, with pages from featured photo books photographed against a wood grain, provided an attractive continuity. I liked the one-page book commentaries/facts (on a white page with black fonts). The publishing info for each featured book was short and to the point, easy to grasp. Knowing print run size, printing and paper info, retail pricing, etc. was invaluable. Left me with the impression that indeed you could do small print runs and have fun. Glad I bought the book. Intend to keep it as an inspirational reference.
Review: A compendium of some of the best independently published books in recent years - A compendium of some of the best independently published books in recent years, with advice interspersed. A nice lighthearted volume

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great resource for self-publishers!
*by B***A on September 12, 2018*

This book isn't a "how to" so if you're looking for that you should look elsewhere. This is a great resource for ideas and inspiration on self-publishing, full of many various examples of different types of self-published zines and whatnot, with info on materials and costs. You basically have a free Alec Soth zine right in the middle of the book so that's worth the price alone.
