How to Get Your Book Reviewed by the Times
Dec 1st, 2009 by MPC Press
We at MPC Press were ecstatic when Rhyme was reviewed by the Times. Assuming the review is somewhat positive, it is quite an achievement to have the Times review your book. With circulation only trailing USA Today and the Wall Street Journal according to a list on Wikipedia , there are few places where an author/publisher would rather be reviewed than the New York Times. Every bookstore buyer reads the NY Times Book Review and certainly millions of readers take notice. Sales undoubtedly rise after a review by the Times. But did I mention that the review of Rhyme was actually by the San Mateo County Times? So, can someone please tell me how I can get my book reviewed by the New York Times? Hundreds of books show up daily on the desk of the editor of the NY Times Book Review, so it isn’t easy, I assure you.
