Did you notice there are three reviews for this book at Amazon.com now?<\/p>\n

Have you ever wondered how to get reviews for your book? You ask for them. Who should you ask?
\n\u2022\tThose who contributed to your nonfiction book.
\n\u2022\tColleagues and experts that you consulted while writing the book.
\n\u2022\tProfessionals within your field or writers in your genre.
\n\u2022\tProgram directors for some of the events where you\u2019ve spoken.
\n\u2022\tFriends and readers of your previous fiction or nonfiction works.
\n\u2022\tReviewers for publications related to the topic\/genre of your book. <\/p>\n

There are also many book review sites online. Most of them do NOT charge. You should not have to pay for a book review. If you are doing your job to become known by your readers, you should be able to call on many of them to give you a testimonial and\/or write a review. If your book is decent, you should be able to get some of the online book reviewers to review your book.
\nHere are a few book review directories:<\/p>\n

\n http:\/\/www.stepbystepselfpublishing.net\/free-book-reviews.html<\/a>
\n http:\/\/hampton-networks.com<\/a> <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s another tip: If you write reviews, testimonials or blog posts for other authors, they are more apt to do the same for you.<\/p>\n
