How to get book bloggers to review your self-published book
As a self-published author, you’re in a tough spot. You can’t sell your book without reviews, but if no one is buying your book, how the heck are you supposed to get any reviews? Lucky for you, book bloggers have millions of followers who read their reviews and take their book recommendations as gospel. Getting an influential blogger to review your book can shoot your sales through the roof. But how exactly do you entice bloggers to read and review your book?
This book offers practical advice and insider tips for approaching bloggers and snagging their attention (without paying for it), including:
• Where to find and how to choose book bloggers
• What to say (and what not to say) when approaching bloggers
• The top reasons why bloggers might be rejecting your review requests
• Examples of good (and bad) query letters
• Hidden clues in a review policy that might increase your odds of winning a review
• How to cultivate relationships with bloggers that will help you with future releases and requests
Book bloggers are here to stay, and the authors who know how to work with them are more likely to hit the bestseller’s lists than those who don’t. And who better to tell self-published and indie authors how to approach bloggers than ACTUAL bloggers? Yeah, that’s what we thought, too.

Great resource
This book did exactly what it said on the label. It covers where to track down the elusive breed of book bloggers, how to lure them once you find them, and how to charm them once lured.
Definitely worth the read!

Some good information, but for the length, I would have just offered this as a freebie on the author's marketing site. It's more like an informational brochure to get you turned in the right direction. Worth 99 cents? Yes, possibly, but still think it kind of stretches the definition of a "book," being offered on Amazon.
