Hi Avery,

i find that bloggers respond best when approached one by one. So go to the blog group, and ask for reviews, interviews, they usually have a wait list. Some have taken several months but it was very worth it. As a good example of one worth the wait was Great Minds Think aloud, I waited months for my review, but they wrote an awesome review, posted it everywhere, invited me for an author interview and are now marketing me as a give-away. Of course what is a review but a mere opinion, and as such an honest review..is always scary  and it's a risk. Anyhow I hope this helps, look for bloggers in the various groups and see which review books in your genre, my book is a genre cross over Historical, paranormal, mystery and romance, so I can approach a variety. So I get turned down from YA, Sci-fi, Chick-Lit bloggers as an example. But have a pretty broad base audience.

Best of luck and I hope this helps.

You're welcome, Richard :) To answer your question it depends what you're here for. Since you're an author, like me, then this site can be used to find bloggers to review your book. First you need to check out the Groups and decide which ones you’ll benefit from joining. A few good ones are Promote Your Book, Advertise Your Work, and Network Your Blog. By joining Network Your Blog, you’ll be able to post under Authors Seeking Bloggers to find reviewers. You can also go to the Forums to try and find reviewers there.
