Question for friends who read small press, out there-ish literary fiction. Where besides Goodreads do you discover new books? Are there any online publications that are go-to's for reviews?

A couple prizes (The Republic of Consciousness Prize--the UK one seems more experimental than the U.S. one so far; the Sukenick and Doctorow prizes run by FC2 Press). Mostly presses themselves (Charco, Journal of Experimental Fiction, Dorothy Publishing, Sublunary or the distribution collective they are part of: Asterism Book). Haven't had as much luck with online pubs. Sources you like/use?

Oh these are great, Marc. Thank you. I definitely check out the upcoming releases of my favorite presses from time to time.Between having a great bookstore in my neighborhood with solid recs and connecting with so many amazing readers here on GR, and also having a number of IRL friends who seem to always know what's up, I never really want for books.
I guess I should be forthright and say, I'm interested in writing a review of a book for a small press writer I really admire and I'm wondering where I should send it.
It's a good problem to have!That's cool about the review. Hopefully, the GR hivemind comes through with some good recs for submission!
books and bao .com has a quite eclectic collection of recommendations, but it veers more to contemporary fiction, not sure if it's what you're looking for
