Screen shot 2014-03-28 at 3.00.24 PMI like the new service being offered by Books at a Glance.

Subscribers can use it to be informed on what’s being published and make wiser purchasing choice.

They offer “executive summaries,” as it were, for Christian books, summarizing the main argument and the chapters in 7-10 pages. So you get a good sense of what’s out there and whether a book is really worth picking up and reading straight through. They also provide book reviews, author interviews, and a blog. It’s worth checking out!

Here’s a little blur I wrote about the service:

Of making many books there is no end” (Eccles. 12:12). If that was true in Solomon’s day, how much more true is it today in the 21st century! Even the best of us can only read a tiny fraction of what is written. If we want to “make the best use of our time” (Eph. 5:16), we could use some help so that we don’t waste our reading. I thank God, therefore, for ministries like “Books At a Glance,” designed to guide us to choose our reading wisely. From summaries to reviews to interviews, I expect this to be a key resource to help me know what is out there and what to read next.
