Book Bloggers Rock!

As most people know, the book review sections of newspapers are shrinking and in some cases, advertising dollars impact the selection of which books get reviewed, so what are struggling novelists and avid readers to do? Book bloggers are here to save the
day! For honest reviews and great book suggestions, book blogs are the place to
go to get all the info on what to read, what to skip, which authors are rock
stars and which authors need to get their head out of the stars (and come back
down to Earth!)

I was lucky enough to get some great reviews on my debut book, SISTERS OF MISERY, from some wonderful YA and Adult book bloggers. Since major mags have such a limited space to run reviews, book blogs are the perfect place to go to get real opinions and great reading suggestions. Some of the larger book blogs, like BookBitch, GalleyCat and Maud Newton are more well-known and established. But my experiences with smaller and up and coming bloggers and book blog sites have been amazing. At this time, I’d
like to proclaim my incredible affection and devotion to the following blogs
