How to Get Books from Bostick Communications + Reviewing for Bostick 101

A lof of book bloggers just started receiving emails from Bostick automatically with offers of books for review. However you can get on their list yourself by going to their website: http://www.bostickcommunications.com/ and contacting them. Just explain that you are a book blogger and provide your url and mention that you'd like to be included in their mailing list.

You may or may not receive a message back saying you're on the list. You probably won't know until you start receiving emails. All you have to do to ask for a review copy of a book is reply to the email with your mailing address (and I always include my blog url). I usually add a short sentence like: "I would love to review this book." I don't know if this is necessary. You will NOT get a reply. You may or may not receive the book.

Please note that although it looks like the offers are from the book authors, they are all from the same email address as Bostick.. So save any papers that come with your book if they have the author's email so you can alert them when their review is up or ask any questions. If you want to inquire about an interview or giveaway or anything else, use the contact info that came with the book first. If nothing came, then reply to the original offer message and ask that they forward the email on.

Comment by Marci on January 23, 2009 at 4:07pm: Well that sucks that they don't ship to Canada. If I would have known that then I wouldn't have requested books. Oh well, I have a few on my desk waiting to be read...

Comment by Dani ~ aka The Romance Book Addict on January 22, 2009 at 2:19pm: Thanks Benjamin!

Comment by Benjamin Potter on January 22, 2009 at 11:27am: Dani -- go to Bostick Communications' website and click on the Contact button. That may be the best way to get on their email list. You can surf around there for more info as well.

Comment by Shelly Burns on January 15, 2009 at 4:32pm: Just posted my review for Ralphina, the Roly-Poly.

Comment by Marta Hoelscher on January 13, 2009 at 5:49pm: I just got my first email from Bostwick!

Comment by Ignacio on December 29, 2008 at 12:57am: I have a small pile of books to read but would not mind seeing what ARC are available from Bostick. I like fiction and non-fiction but tend to gravitate towards non-fiction, especially memoirs.

Comment by Callista on December 26, 2008 at 10:26pm: Don't know about anyone else but I haven't said yes to very many offers from them lately.

In December I've said yes to:
RALPHINA, THE ROLY-POLY (a picture book)

In Novemeber I said yes to:
The Secret Lives of Men - groundbreaking truth about the secret lives of men
Magic - learning magic has never been easier

neither which I've received.

Comment by cindysloveofbooks on October 30, 2008 at 9:36pm: AmyAileen I have received a few books through them so some do come and others don't. Good luck,

Comment by AmyAileen on October 30, 2008 at 7:17pm: Thank you cyndyslovofbooks and Anysia. I did contact them through their website, and it was within minutes that I started receiving emails about books. It'll be interesting to see if I actually receive any that I requested.
