Book bloggers are the unsung heroes of the publishing industry. There's so little written about them yet they are the seeds of change. An unknown author could conceivably strike it big by the strength of their reviews.
With a few choice words they tell the world how they feel about a book. Feelings are important. A book is more than just words and story. It's about passion and connecting with the reader.
That's why I hold so much stock in a book blogger's opinion. They spread a message.

It doesn't matter if you're an indie, a small press author, or a Big 6 megastar, book bloggers have a grassroots influence that transcends any fancy advertising you can buy.
Today, I'm visiting Jackie Burris. This is an extra special post because if you have a question about review blogs, you have an honest-to-goodness book blogger you can ask. So stop by. Add yourself to Jackie's follower list and feel free to join in on the conversation.
I met Jackie totally by accident when I was browsing on Goodreads. I noticed her avatar (one very cute Chihuahua) on one of my friends' lists and I clicked on her link. Well, Jackie is also from Texas and that was all it took for me to send a friend request. The rest as they say is history.
I hope you'll visit her and say howdy.
