Nancy Lorenz | 9 comments Goodreads Authors/Readers,

I am looking for a reviewer for my contemporary YA book, entitled,
"The Strength of Ballerinas." published by Cedar Fort Books. Publication date is Sept., 2014.

It is still early, so there is no galley yet; it would be in manuscript form. My publisher, however, said that I should get reviews early before July. (The manuscript is 238 pages long.)

Where is the best place to find a reviewer on Goodreads? Is there a list?

Abby Vandiver | 124 comments Hi Nancy. Congratulations on your new book. No, there aren't any "lists" but lots of groups. A lot of times people swap books for reviews. There are some that will review with a review in return. The best way to do it is to go through your notifications. Facebook is another place to find authors who will review your book. Good luck to you and your book.

Thank you, Nicole. That is a great list. I will check them all out. (I am still trying to find my way around Goodreads!) Thank you again!
