Introduction
Ever wondered where to go to find good book recommendations, writing tips, and other book-related content? I’ve built up quite a few connections during the time I’ve been blogging, and I’ve listed the ones I personally recommend below. These are blogs I look at all the time or ones where I know the author and their content and can safely say that you’ll find interesting or useful. There’s a variety of content ranging from reviews or writing advice to writing from the bloggers of the sites. Some even have all of that. Let’s take a look!
Review Blogs
These sites do reviews of books, and most accept requests for reviews or even will do blog tours and author interviews by special requests. James’s blog does author interviews regularly both in video and via blog post, so if you’re looking for that, hop on over to his blog and request those.

Jenna Moreci’s vlog on YouTube
Chuck Wendig’s blog Terrible Minds (Can’t promise this one will be clean or won’t contain swear words. Actually, I guarantee the swear words will be in there. But if you like humor and to-the-point writing advice, check his blog out. I like that he breaks down the techniques and things you can learn from other writers.)
Better Novel Project’s Blog (These guys like to combine writing with doodling, so if you like sketching or drawing and writing, this might be for you.)
Ignite Your Ink Blog (This blog is filled with writing, editing, and marketing advice. Ignite Your Ink also has author services available like editing and other similar things.)
The Art of Narrative Blog (Writing, editing, and making money as an author as well as book reviews and author spotlights from well-known, established authors.)

Conclusion
Have a blog you want me to consider adding to the list? Drop a comment below or shoot me an email, and I’ll take a look over the site and consider adding it on here. Due to my busy schedule, I may not be able to reply to everyone. If I choose to add the requested blog, I will get back to you. If I don’t, then I probably won’t be adding it. Not everything is something I’d feel comfortable recommending, so please don’t be offended if I don’t respond and add the site.
