How Can I get readers to review my debut novel on Amazon

[Reggie Ridgway]

I am a thriller writer and my debut novel came out on Amazon last week. I noticed other authors get up to 20 instant reviews. I suspect many of them were genuine but also think they might be friends and family helping out. How can I get reviews without leaning on friends and family?

Any suggestions or info in posts here?

It seems to be a universal problem. I am finding some help from posts here.

Hi all,

I'm also having trouble getting reviews for my latest book. Deadly Image is a Christian romantic suspense so finding the right market is proving a bit difficult. If anyone would be willing to read, review and post to Amazon I would appreciate it very much. I have PDF copies and a PRC kindle copy. Please contact me at [e-mail] if you would be willing to review for me.  I'm not quite sure what is considered spam on here, so I won't post the blurb, but I will post a link to Amazon where you can read it if you are interested in reviewing it. I have PDF and PRC copies available for review.

Yes, yes, ask the review bloggers *points to self* Especially the ones with blogs focused on your kind of book. I post long, detailed reviews on my blog and condensed versions on Amazon and Goodreads (since customers can be impatient!)
