Kindle-Only reviewers are at the bottom
Book reviews are the best way to promote your book for free! Now, don't expect reviewers to PAY for your books! A regular print ad in a newspaper can cost thousands of dollars. A book review only costs you the postage and the cost of the book. Got it?
Although submitting books for review can be costly (with postage costs, etc), the rewards are enormous. And it's still a LOT cheaper than print ads. A positive book review on Amazon is like a shower of gold for writers. If you can get 10 or more positive reviews, your book looks like a winner for anyone looking to buy it. Read this fantastic article by bestselling romance author Stacy-Deanne about how to "trick" reviewers into reviewing your self-published book (hint* sometimes it's best to just keep your mouth shut!). And this is another great article on how to approach Indie Bookstores without sounding like an idiot.
Be careful when you send out books to people who solicit you for a copy of your book. Most legitimate reviewers don't solicit authors directly. Most of these requests are bogus, (people who just want the book for free).
A word of caution: if your book is un-edited, full of typos, or otherwise unfinished-don't bother contacting the reviewers below. Trust Thy Reviewer. Not everyone is going to love your book. That's Okay. A few negative reviews are expected. Don't freak out. But take the advice under advisement, and be smart about it. Let's say you send your book out to 10 reviewers. If one reviewer hates your book, but nine reviewers LOVE it, you probably have a hit. On the other hand, if all ten reviewers think your book is a giant piece of crap, it's probably a piece of crap. Back to the drawing board. Please contact us if you are a book reviewer and would like to be added to this list.
This list is updated often, so check back every week or so. Help us keep this list updated by reporting dead blogs or reviewers that are no longer accepting submissions.

Review Lists on Other Sites
We have a few other review lists below; they are here because they are a good resource, but many of the reviewers on these lists do not review self-pubbers. But we have included the information here because of the sheer number of listings.
Simon Royle
Great list of indie sites by author Simon Royle, constantly updated. http://simon-royle.com/indie-reviewers/ Listings are current.
FabianSpace
Check out this fantastic new resource for self-published authors! The Fabianspace SP reviewer list is long and a goldmine of potential reviewers. I hope you can find a great reviewer for your book.
Best of the Web Blog Directory: Review Bloggers
This is the link to a vast list of bloggers who review books. Some are good, others not. Take the time to visit a few and see if you can find some useful links. If you get a good one, (or a new one) please contact us so we can add it to our main list.
Ottinger's Book Review Blog list
A huge blog list (almost 300) of book review blogs. Some updated, some not. Worth looking at. Mostly Sci-Fi and Fiction reviewers, but a lot of goodies here. Bookmark this one for sure.

There's also a great list on The Complete Review for tons of book review websites and print reviews (240 in all). It's worth checking out. The Complete Review is not accepting submissions, but they have one of the best resource pages on the internet.

Ottinger's Book Review Blog list
A huge blog list (almost 300) of book review blogs. Some updated, some not. Worth looking at. Mostly Sci-Fi and Fiction reviewers, but a lot of goodies here. Bookmark this one for sure.
Robin Mizzel's Reviewer List
Another great list sent to me by a reviewer. Lots and lots of reviewers here, but you will have to contact each of them directly in order to see if they will accept your submission. The benefit of this list is that they are divided up by genre.
