Penguin Random house Avis 

Any publisher that gives Harry Windsor & Meghan Markle a 4 book deal is worthy of boycott in my opinion. I see they have terrible reviews on Trustpilot already.

they definitely have one of the largest inventory of books that you can find online at the moment. i love just browsing their website sometime and come across books that i have never heard of. you know, bestsellers, classics, specials, niches, uncharted territory, you name it. and I also started reading a lot ebooks which is far more comfortable than reading physical books turns out, and penguin is still my go to place to explore stuff and get some interesting reads

Bought Ivanhoe, started reading yesterday, so confused and none of the first couple of pages made any sense, then realised page 1 starts at the end of the book! And I was reading the ending backwards, I'm not impressed, it will be returned, and I will be getting my money back.. buyer beware

How dare you mess with classic literature. PG Wodehouse should be left intact. Hitler's burning of books comes to mind!! Oh oh wokey wokey. I shall avoid your books at all cost!😡

Received a book as a gift - unfortunately 50 pages were missing. Was unable to return do vendor due to being a gift so having no proof of purchase, so got in contact with PRH as the publishers. Received a complete replacement book in about a week or so - great service from this publisher, a shame the printing error happened at all though.

Just so anyone reading this knows... the bad reviews all come from angry British people. The website is terrible to use but it is not a scam

Death of a great publishing house after Bertelsman bought them. Such a waste.

This company are paying millions to Prince Harry to (a) allow him to moan about his differences with his family and (b) damage our country and Royal Family. Personally I value publishers who invest in new talented writers, rather than subsidise hate and over-entitled disloyal royals. So one star. I prefer to support books from publishers who sign up great authors. A better cause. Bad company. Bad web site.

In my opinion, the penguin book printing quality has diminished in recent years, and I have noticed other people at book shops voicing the same concerns.

The printing on the pages remains too faint and unreadable, possibly due to the publisher printing the books on the ink-save mode or by using cheaper ink. Also the font size on some books can be unnecessarily small even for medium-length works. Notwithstanding the poor binding across much of the penguin range, for instance the books appear to be floppy and bendy with minimal structural integrity. And I have witnessed the cover material on the book spine peeling off within days of use.

Such cost-cutting methods only compromise the overall product and typographic quality of your books, not least the reader experience.

Authors dedicate much effort and time into writing something decent, and one would expect the publisher to at least print the books with dark ink, readable font, good construction and paper quality.

I put my findings in writing to penguin and they forwarded my feedback to the relevant department, however I somewhat doubt they will address the printing quality issues mentioned.

In light of everything, I have since had no choice but to always double-check the publisher before purchasing any books, leaving me to seek previous editions from charity shops or inspecting the print quality before purchase.

This company it all related to a tik tocker who constantly swears and uses her kid in her videos and makes him swear, uses mental health issues and body dysmorphia to make everyone click her videos. Shame on you penguin random house. Shame on you.

We bought one of your books, “Mommy mama and me” and I just wanted to share my experience with you. Everything is good but the quality of the book is poor and after less than a month we have it it’s already broken.

This is a great publishing house with plenty of history and I particularly enjoyed all the books by author Dan Jones. No, not the Da Vinci Code muppet. There's an even better Dan Jones out there who writes about English history in the best possible way. If you've not read his books, punch yourself hard in the kidneys because that's the kind of disrespect you're serving up to yourself. Nice work Penguin.

They are proven liars and hypocrites. Don’t you have people pitching worthwhile content. I can guarantee I will NEVER purchase anything connected to the Markles.

Contacted by email for a very obscure query, response within a few days solving my problem completely.

Cannot believe so many business are willing to gamble their good name on Harry Windsor and his wife. After they bang on and on and on about kindness, compassion TRANSPARENCY etc but are happy to get on national tv to trash their family. Trashing them with PROVEN LIES. The archbishop had to make a statement because they had the audacity to pull him down in their “spectacle”. I’ll put you on my do not do business with list.

I am absolutely disgusted to find out that you are giving the Duke and Dutches of Sussex the means for them to be able to tell their unprovoked attack,And lie after lie ,about totally innocent people,Her bullying and disrespectful manner in which she conducted herself,towards our Royal Family Her Majesty the Queen,At a most distressing time for her ,And given her advancing age ,I would have hoped you and your fellow publishers would have had the ,Good grace not to entertain these two and their proven lies ,I have bought many of your publications over the years ,But no more And neither will my many friends and family members,who are equally appalled at the suggestion of such books ,which are clearly to be set out to hurt people with their lies ,I hope you will be able to justify your decision to go ahead with this plan ,In the future when you are also dragged into the ,gutter When people start court action.And what leg have you got to stand on knowing of their proven lies they have told in the past ,No less than 17 proven lies in the OW show .And you intend to do business with these two liers ,all I can say in all respects to this is more fool you ,I’m asking for you to reconsider your intention in publishing these books ,now you have been made awear of the situation and how strongly we in the UK value our Queen and we would hope you would do the same ,Thing given her many years of service to the crown ,

If you are publishing a book for duke of Sussex you are paying a traitor to a country millions to have the publishing rights on his 4 books of lies. You will become the publisher connected to trashy books, that they are assisting the fall of Queen Elizabeth II and possibly the British Monarchy. After the Oprah Winfrey interview was aired on TV it has been proven that there are no fewer than 17 lies , during which they contradicted each other clearly not managing to even remember the lies they were supposed to tell. I belong to many groups whose thousands of members will not be purchasing from Penguin Random House if this publication goes ahead. We as a group have discussed this in detail i am very disappointed you would go along with this takedown of the monarchy

I have only given you a 1 star rating because you have to select a star to be able to leave a review. It's hard to believe that a reputable company would pay good money for what will possibly be the "life story" of an entitled, spoiled brat, hell bent on revenge because he and his wife are forced to make their own way, while they live their "private" lives. If the Winfrey interview is anything to go by, distortions of the truth will be rife. Test the public sentiment towards the couple, you might be surprised.

Random House should HANG THEIR HEADS IN SHAME. This lying, manipulating, cash-hungry Social Climber MEGHAN MARKLE, and her ‘HANDBAG HARRY husband, told that WINFREY woman 17 PROVABLE LIES!! Do Penguin Random House CONDONE people, ROYAL people, with hundreds of years of history behind them, who blatantly LIE?? Sure, the terrible twosome may not care about what the British people may think of them, and are selling this ‘Enid Blyton’ ‘MEMOIR’ (haha) of Handbag Harrys, mainly to the US, but remember, the Commonwealth consists of many Countries. Let the Americans have them. They have Donald Trump, after all, (what a cheery little threesome they make!! Lol) But most of the rest of the world only want to see these two money-grabbers fall flat on their privileged faces. Again, SHAME ON YOU, Penguin Random House for not only giving over huge amounts of cash to these liars and sensationalistic pair of gobshites, but for hoping to ‘Cash in’ yourselves IF this tale of FICTION, along with it’s cousin, THE BENCH (haha again) sells (mostly to the American People. Well, if that baffoon-faced orange pumpkin, Donald Trump can ‘make it big’ in that country, the Harkles can easily follow in his footsteps. By the way, I’m Australian, and love my Queen. If this potential SON OF JAMES HEWITT does do damage to our Royal Family, then Penguin Random house can pat themselves on the back for giving Harkle a helping hand. I have done my own survey here where I live and only ONE person said they MAY buy the book out of ‘curiosity’. I sincerely hope you lose money hand over fist Penguin Random House. I, like many millions across the world will NOT even buy these Harkle Books as toilet paper, as that is all they will be used for!! Why dont you try Publishing REAL Authors, those who struggle to get a GOOD book Published, not these Hillbilly Money-Grabbing two-bit ‘Royals’. Again, SHAME ON YOU!!

I am appalled that Penguin Random House are going to pay a huge amount of money for the publishing rights to supposedly four books written by Harry Mountbatten‐Windsor, or by whatever ghostwriter is being involved. Prince Harry betrayed HMTQ, the entire British Royal Family, the British people,and the UK. His truths, told so far in interviews, have mostly been debunked as lies. What can we expect of him when he now claims to be telling the truth? I don't think so. His so‐called memoir and all books that may follow are going to be full of lies too. Are Penguin Random House really thinking it is okay to be compliant to the destruction of the House of Windsor, forced by a privileged man in his mid‐thirties who still behaves like a child? A man who is using the tragic and untimely death of his mother to make money, and who has absolutely no problems whatsoever with trashing his family with continuingly telling lies. I can't believe he is given this platform to pursue his agenda to further damage the BRF. I'm done with you.
