I read this book a few months back and have been holding off on reviewing it until I had a chance to actually work with it a bit.  I’m a debut novelist whose book will be out this coming April and I know it behooves me to help promote it by reaching out to book bloggers. But how does one do that exactly?  I can say honestly that this book has helped me in my early efforts to navigate the book blog landscape.The book is clearly written, and the information provide is up-to-date, directly useful and concrete.  To give a persona example--the fact that blogs that are swamped with books to review are open to running interviews with authors and articles by them, was new to me.  Would I have figured this out by myself?  I’d like to think so—eventually--but I didn’t have to, and it has made a difference that I knew this out of the gate.  There many other useful nuggets in the book.  It’s written by a blogger in the field of romantic fiction but what it says is applicable across genres.  She has surveyed other book bloggers and drawn on survey results as well as her own experience.  A boon to new authors--highly recommended!
