Twelve Month Indie Book Challenge

There is an exponential number of books being produced with a shrinking number of book readers globally. We at Samjoko Magazine are making a New Year’s resolution, and would like social media to join us. We especially ask that Indie authors join us.

In 2026, we are going to read and review one indie book a month. We will post the review here, and would like to encourage anyone who writes a review of 400 words or more to submit it to us so that we can publish it here on our site also.

Our book for January 2026 will be THE CICADA TREE by Robert Gwaltney.
