We give out review copies to bloggers, retailers, librarians, and media outlets in exchange for an honest review!I would love to participate in Blogging for Books but I imagine my geographical location will prohibit it but for some of you book-lovers this is probably right down your alley.
They have books in all of these categories:
Better Living
Business
Cooking & Food
Crafts, Home & Hobbies
Entertainment
Faith
Fiction
Non-Fiction
I also found this one, BookLook Bloggers which is a similar company. I have noticed a few people using this one too.
Apparently these are the qualifications to be involved with BookLook Bloggers:
- With an actively maintained personal, public blog. The program does not accept Facebook, Amazon, Goodreads or any other type of community profile site as a viable form of blog.
- Who have a visible minimum of 30 followers or subscribers. If the BookLook Bloggers team cannot view this follower count, we cannot currently accept your application. There are multiple options in order to place a follower count on your blog, such as Google Friend Connect, Wordpress Follow Blog Widget, Blogger Buzz, Twitter follower buttons, Facebook follower buttons, and using a Feedburner Count.
- Who consistently post content at least once per week.
And BETHANYHOUSE also has a review program. Are you kidding me? They also allow world wide review of electronic copies so that means I'm eligible.
Anyhoo, Blogging for Books, BETHANY HOUSE & BookLook Bloggers are more than cool and I thought you'd want in!
Sounds like a good idea Tori as many of the bloggers I know are readers!! I do honest book reviews occasionally just because I like sharing a good book with my friends. I also do Good Reads for the same reason. I love finding good books that others have read as well.
ReplyDeleteHey, that's pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. Blessings
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, Tori! I've seen several bloggers who do this. A great way to build up your book collection.
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed getting free books from Blogging for Books! Sometimes I have to wait for the ones I really want. This time they actually wrote me and offered to let me review the THM books, which was nice since I was genuinely interested in those books! :) In the past I've also enjoyed reviewing for Thomas Nelson. That's great that you found Bethany House will send you electronic copies! I know Blogging for Books also has eBooks available for many of their books.
ReplyDeleteWow what a neat idea.
ReplyDeleteThank you for these links. I have done the Blogging for Books one before and love it. I have read some awesome books. I am going to check into the rest.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Tori. I love to read and discuss books - how much more fun to do it for free!
