Reviewing a Book by
Sandra Murphy
What I Look for When Reviewing a
Book by Sandra Murphy
Reviewers, by definition, love books. Most
have specialties like cozy mysteries,
thrillers, or science fiction that they enjoy.
When you ask someone for a review,
you’ve asked them to give up hours of
their time to promote a book.
So, what makes a reviewer say yes or no
to your book?
Who’s sending the book?
Did the request come from the author or
the publisher?
Have I read this author before? I go to
Amazon to see what the blurb says. Is it
part of a series, a stand-alone and what
else has the author written. Readers who
enjoy a book will want more.
