Book Reviewer Yellow Pages (EDIT: CLOSED to SUBMISSIONS 7/26/2012)
Hello all, my company is gearing up to do the 3rd edition of the Book Reviewer Yellow Pages. It's FREE for any blogger or book reviewer to be listed, and you can increase your followers and web hits. If you accept book submissions from authors/publishers, then you can join.
This resource is designed to help small publishers, and that's why we do it. All the bloggers/reviewers listed will also get a free (PDF) copy. Our current list has about 200 book reviewers, and it grows by about 5 new reviewers per month. My contact e-mail is in the attachment (in WORD format) if you prefer to e-mail me directly).
THANKS to everyone who submitted their information! I've closed the submissions for the Book Reviewer Yellow Pages as of 7/26/2012. You can still be added to the website by contacting me, but new additions to the book are closed until next year. Thanks again everyone!
THANKS

Hi, my blog is new, but I've been reviewing on Amazon and Goodreads for years.
Here's my answers to your questions:
Blog/website name: Fiction Playground
Main blog URL: http://fictionplayground.blogspot.com/
How long has the site been active? since June
Main reviewer’s name: Moises
Best method of contact: email- (on my review policy page)
Do you accept independent and small press books? Yes, as long as they are professionally edited.
Do you accept audiobooks? Yes.
Genres that you accept: Fantasy (epic, YA, etc), some chick lit, romance, historical fiction, Sci-fi and Young Adult.
Genres that you do NOT accept: poetry, erotica, horror, police procedurals, true crime, or any other violent material.
Do you accept nonfiction? Not on this site. If so, what type of material do you accept?
Do you accept any adult content or erotica? Not really
Do you accept e-books? No. If so, what format? No, physical books only
Do you host online blog tours for authors? Yes
Do you host contests/giveaways? Yes
Approximate turn-around time for reviews: 1 month.
What are your “pet peeves” when authors or publishers contact you for a review? Being asked to review a book that's clearly not something I accept. My review policy is pretty clear. I also don't like accepting e-mails with attachments, because I can never be sure if the file is corrupt or laden with viruses. That's why I accept physical copies only. I have a Kindle, but I use it only for books that I purchase myself.
Other than your own website, where else do you post your book reviews? Amazon, B&N, Goodreads
Do you accept fees for any type of promotion or service? Not right now.
Other comments (tell us a little about yourself): I have a Kindle, and I enjoy reading on that. I like epic fantasy a lot, but it's hard to find an author that I really enjoy. Right now I'm reading Christopher Bunn and I think he's great.

Best method of contact: email: fetachan@gmail.com
Do you accept independent and small press books? Yes! :)
Do you accept audiobooks? Not really.
Genres that you accept: YA in general. I love contemporary YA the most and my biggest love are novels about depression, eating disorders ect. I also like fantasy.
Genres that you do NOT accept: sci-fi, erotica, poems
Do you accept nonfiction? If so, what type of material do you accept? No, but sometimes I accept true crime.
Do you accept any adult content or erotica? Erotica – no. Adult content – violence, but not too graphic.
Do you accept e-books? If so, what format? Of course! Mobi.
Do you host online blog tours for authors? Yes!

Approximate turn-around time for reviews: Depends on my schedule. It’s quite busy usually. Sometimes it takes me a week, sometimes 2 months. But around 30 days I guess.
What are your “pet peeves” when authors or publishers contact you for a review? I really don’t like when I don’t get enough info, when author or publisher doesn’t read my review policy. Attaching file with the book in first email is quite annoying too.
Other than your own website, where else do you post your book reviews? Goodreads, and if available: Amazon, Kobo, Barnes and Noble, Diesel, The Book Depository
Do you accept fees for any type of promotion or service? I haven’t yet. Reviewing is my hobby, not work :)
Other comments (tell us a little about yourself): English isn’t my first language, I’m from Poland :) So I make mistakes of course… I’m still a student by the way.

That sounds like a really good idea. I am not a blogger/ book reviewer, but it would be great if I could look up blogs/reviews by genre and offer them my book. Looking forward to using it.

Hi Irina;
You can see the abbreviated listings for the reviewers here now, if you are currently trying to promote your book. The Book Reviewer Yellow Pages will include detailed listings (like the ones above) and it will be ready at the end of July 2012.

Blog/website name: {Dive} Under the Cover
Main blog URL: http://diveunderthecover.blogspot.com/
How long has the site been active? (example: Nov 2011) Since April 2012
Main reviewer’s name: Shelly Greninger
Best method of contact: e-mail (on my review policy page)
Do you accept independent and small press books? yes, but only if I think they are something I would enjoy reading and feel comfortable recommending to my readers.
Do you accept audiobooks? no
Genres that you accept: YA, paranormal, romance, contemporary romance, sci-fi, horror, mystery. thriller, etc...
Genres that you do NOT accept: poetry, most non-fiction
Do you accept nonfiction? If so, what type of material do you accept? I will accept some, depends on if it's a subject I am interested it.
Do you accept any adult content or erotica? some, depends on subject matter and author.
Do you accept e-books? If so, what format? I prefer print books for review.
Do you host online blog tours for authors? yes
Do you host contests/giveaways? yes
Approximate turn-around time for reviews: 2-3 weeks in most cases (if I don't have to read prior releases in the series)
What are your “pet peeves” when authors or publishers contact you for a review? Form letters that aren't personalized to me. When I do receive one of these then I know it's likely that my review policy wasn't read. I don't have many other pet peeves really.
Other than your own website, where else do you post your book reviews? Goodreads and Amazon, B&N if the author requests it, but I don't automatically post there.
Do you accept fees for any type of promotion or service? no, it's just something I do because I enjoy it.
Other comments (tell us a little about yourself): I am new to the book blogging world, but I have been reading and talking about books to anyone who would listen for years! I post very regularly, nearly every day and I try to do at least 2-3 reviews a week. I really do read that much! I do have a kindle, but I prefer print books for review because it's easier to flip back and forth and keep track of my thoughts with sticky notes, etc... Also, and this is totally a personal opinion, I feel that when an author puts in that extra bit to have a book printed it shows that they believe that they are putting something quality out there and that's something that I should take the time to read.
