Welcome to The Gilt List. By accessing or using https://thegiltlist.com (“the Site”), you agree to the following terms and disclaimers.

If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Site.

1. General information only

All content on the Site is provided for general informational and entertainment purposes.

  • Nothing on this Site is professional advice of any kind (legal, medical, financial, etc.).
  • Book recommendations, ratings, and opinions are personal views and are not guarantees that you will feel the same way about any book.

You are responsible for your own reading choices and for checking any content warnings, age ratings, and suitability for yourself or others.

2. No guarantees of accuracy or completeness

We do our best to provide accurate, up-to-date information, but:

  • details about books (e.g., publication dates, series order, content warnings) may change
  • individual posts may contain errors or omissions
  • opinions may evolve over time as we read more or revisit a book

We make no guarantees that the information on the Site is complete, accurate, or current. You use the Site at your own risk.

3. Reading, content, and triggers

Books discussed on the Site may include:

  • strong language
  • sexual content
  • violence
  • dark or distressing themes
  • other potentially triggering material

Where possible, we aim to flag major content warnings, but:

  • we cannot guarantee an exhaustive list of all triggers or sensitive topics
  • you should always exercise your own judgment and, if necessary, research a book independently before reading

We are not liable for any distress, discomfort, or harm resulting from your reading choices.

4. External links

The Site contains links to third-party websites, online shops, and platforms.

  • We do not control and are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party website.
  • Inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement of the linked site, product, or service.

You access third-party sites at your own risk and should review their terms and privacy policies.

5. Affiliate relationships

Some links on the Site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you make a purchase through those links, at no extra cost to you.

We only recommend books, products, or services that we genuinely believe are relevant to our readers, but:

  • we cannot guarantee your satisfaction with any purchase
  • issues with orders, delivery, or quality must be addressed with the seller or service provider, not with The Gilt List
