Welcome to the website of book lovers, book readers and book critics – we are the team of The Last Critic! You will find many amazing things to read on our website. We regularly post book reviews, literary articles, author interviews, author introductions and general opinions on literary updates. We are certainly one of the emerging book review websites in India but we aspire to be different.
We are here to try our best to bring the value judgement, worthy criticism and the best possible way of reviewing a piece of written literature at the fore of our literary horizon. Our critics will read the books by Indian authors and novelists, poets, and scholars. We will also bring the book reviews of international books alongside the book reviews of books by Indian authors. The Last Critic team will ensure that once you read any of our reviews, you do come back to check our reviews again and again – and we promise to offer you fresh and quality literary content every time you visit this website.
