Today I queried the LL book Review formally, LuLu Book reviews. They are a reputable book reviewer and they don't charge for reviews. They review all kinds of books, including childrens books!
They are booked for January and February but they are accepting queries for March and beyond. They accept books in electronic and physical formats. They also do blog tours and author interviews.
I will admit, I don't know how to inquire about either of these. I've searched the site and I don't see any information on how to contact them for anything other than a subscription, a book review or a comment. This is probably user error! I'm not sure what I'm missing!
They have a long list of reviewers but I didn't choose one directly. Sometimes a site will ask you read about each reviewer and pick one to submit to. This site didn't insist upon that. I decided they will know best who should review the book--if they select The Pet Washer for review at all.
In the meantime, I continue to struggle with my blurb. I have posted a thread on the KDP community and I'm hoping for feedback. It's hard, I think, for the writer to be objective regarding a blurb. I know too much about the story to stand back and sift out a teaser. I'm trying though!
Hi Jennifer-
ReplyDeleteShannon here from the LL Book Review. Our email address is llbookreview@gmail.com. You can email us there with questions about interviews and such, but I'll try to help you out here.
We'd only do an interview with you if your book is chosen for review.
If you want to do a blog tour with us, we're happy to host you if your book is chosen or not. But you do have to provide your own material: blog post, blanket interview, pics, videos, whatever you want to post.
Hope this helps! Email me if you have any other questions!
Best of luck!
