Use The Sistah Circle Book Club Online Bookstore to purchase books. Email club for authors not listed in the store. By the title, one wonders what is going to be said. From the aspiring author with a manuscript to the author with an impending book deal. As many of the authors know, I am not looking for praise.
Book clubs are a vital marketing source for new AND established authors.
Publicists and publishers vigorously send review copies of books to receive endorsement or reviews of titles. It only takes one book to post a review. Then there are the unanswered email messages or flat out non-responsive club to mail outs. That is another animal in itself. With good planning, they go off without a problem.
