Our reviewers choose their books via a link to the book on Amazon. Please make certain that there is an image of the book available along with a clear synopsis as we’ve found that this encourages our reviewers to request the books. Also – if the book doesn’t appeal to a reviewer who is being sent the book it’s probably going to be harder to persuade a reader to spend money on the title. Most of the money which keeps Bookbag running comes from the sale of books through Amazon, so it’s in your interest and ours that the books look as inviting as possible. If a book does not yet have a listing on Amazon please delay sending until the listing is live.
Please note that only in very unusual circumstances will we don't usually review books take a book published more than six three months ago. We prefer to have books at least a month in advance of publication. Because of the number of books we receive we have to be selective about which books go on the shelves if they arrive after publication. We'd also appreciate if you could check with us if you're planing to send the manuscript on A4 paper. This is expensive to post to reviewers and difficult to handle.
We're reluctant to cover subsequent books in a series if we haven't covered (and loved) the first. It's unfair on the author if we review a book when we don't know what's happened before - and it's not ''that'' much fun for the reviewer, either.
