ABOUT URBAN REVIEWS
-
MISSION STATEMENT

Urban Reviews is the premier online resource for open and honest opinions on some of today's latest and greatest releases in African-American Fiction.  Our goal is to provide an insight for visitors to decide whether or not they should consider getting any of the featured releases.

Urban Reviews provides elaborate reviews of recent works, exclusive interviews with today’s Black fiction writers, new release information, diferent networks (Facebook Group, Twitter, etc) to discuss books, relevant topics, and give feedback on our reviews or the website itself. The Facebook Group is also meant to encourage everyone to take part and share information with each other and submit their own opinions on books that they have evaluated themselves. You can also learn about industry news, get press releases, be eligible for contests, get daily book previews delivered to your inbox, and much more in the Facebook Group.

We here at Urban Reviews feel that the website can be one of the best vehicles for getting informed on what’s hot and what’s not in the African American fiction world.


PERSONAL BIOS


Charles Hubbert (1978 - 2013)
Co-Founder / Co-Webmaster (July 2005 to February 2013)
This website is dedicated to my late husband and Co-Founder/Co-Webmaster Charles Hubbert.
Charles was a driving force behind Urban Reviews since it's inception. He always wanted it flourish and to become a trusted review source for the African American literary industry. Charles may be gone but will always be remembered as one half of the soul of Urban Reviews.
