Mary Terzian's most recent book, Politically Homeless: A Five Year Odyssey across Three Continents, has just been reviewed by Kirkus. Through her own story, Terzian articulates the ways in which patriarchy, culture, bureaucracy, and politics challenge but never fully derail an independent woman’s ambitions.-Kirkus CLICK TO TWEET: Are Kirkus reviews worth the fee to sell your book? Kirkus is book review service. They put out a magazine of reviews and provide a number of services to authors, including objective reviews for a fee. Is a Kirkus review is worth the money? It may lend credibility to a book, but will it boost sales? If Kirkus particularly likes your book, they can promote it on their site, but there's no guarantee that will happen. You buy the review; you have to earn the marketing.
Their own site, https://www.kirkusreviews.com/, will give you the argument in favor of a review. For a contrarian view, try... http://www.msauret.com/kirkus-reviews-wasted-money/ or http://www.selfpublishingadvice.org/publishing-is-a-kirkus-review-worth-the-price/ What do you think?
