Seven ways to get your book reviewed

After the initial rush of praise for your newly published book, don't overlook the opportunities to continue getting reviews. Here are a few suggested options. Let me know what other ideas work for you.

1. Get reviews from midwestbookreview.com, bookpleasures.com and other firms that support independent publishing.

2. Ask a syndicated columnist for a review. Give them a relevant slant and you'll be doing them a favor by suggesting a fresh column idea.

3. Local newspapers

4. Associations: All the groups you belong to, including your college alum magazine

5. Bookstore newsletters

6. Your local library newsletter

7. Local media
