Hi Authors! Today I am listing book review blogs (some geared towards YA and fantasy), and each has between 1,000 and 2,500 followers. I researched about 500 book blogs and these were the ones with many followers and current activity. Try to contact some of these sites to review your new or upcoming release for some widespread exposure! View my July 29th post for a list of 14 blogs that have collectively over 50,000 followers! Good Luck! Jan
Terra - thanks for sharing girl!!! Cheers to you! Jan
Love the site's name!!! Thanks for sharing! I'll add hers to my list - thanks Meleesa! Cheers! *clink* *sluuuurrrppp* (it's 5'o'clock somewhere...) Jan ; )
Can I suggest another?

It was started just a few months ago by a good friend of mine, she adds several posts a week and has picked up quite a few followers in a very short amount of time.
Thank you for posting this! Really valuable info for marketing books. I have a list of book review sites (mostly for the fantasy genre) on my blog and few articles on doing book review requests: http:/ / twainwannabe.blogspot.com/ 2011/ 10/ i-am-done-stalking-reviewersfor-now.html
This list surprisingly does not duplicate many sites from your list - so I will be adding to it shortly. Thanks again!

Jan - awesome list - thank you for sharing!
Congrats on your release next year! I'm glad you stopped by and found this into useful!!
With my book coming out next year, I've been researching book review blogs but its such a vast field. This will be a great help in terms of targetting. Thanks for taking the time to put it together. I have no doubt that it was time consuming.
Hi Chynna, Celestine and Julie! Thanks for stopping by and best of luck to you all! Jan

Wow Jan, thanks for another fantastic list! :)
Hi Brynne! You are too sweet! You have a great weekend!!!
I think I am going to draw little wings on your head shot. You really are an author angel, you know:) Thank you's from afar!
Hi Rachel! I hope it is helpful for you! Your books sound awesome!!!!! I am going to jump over to your site now! Best of luck to you!!!
This is amazing, Jan! I'm a cofounder of the Indie Book Collective and we're always looking for reviewers to help our indie authors on promotion. I myself am a humorist, non-fiction so I'll be looking closely as well. My first book A WALK IN THE SNARK came out in January; my second book THE MANCODE: EXPOSED releases in December so this list is my new best friend. :)
Has anyone told you how awesome you are today?
Hi Valerie! I saw you just finished your last chapter on your WIP - congrats lady!!!
I think about half are geared toward YA (since that's my genre - I did this research for my book). This is just part of my entire list! Not that I am going to submit to them all, but once I started compiling it, I just couldn't bring myself to delete any!
