Call for Latino/a Book Review Vlogs

I had a bright idea today. (It happens every so often ; )) I’d love to have more Latino/a book reviews here. Unfortunately, I am only one person and a big part of what I do entails working on book related campaigns so what ends up happening is that I can’t dedicate my time here to writing the rich sort of book reviews and analysis I love to see/read/write myself. So I’ve decided to open up the space and keep the focus on books.

If you have or would like to submit any Latino/a lit book review videos you have created, I would like to give them a home here and share them with my readers. I look forward to your links and comments in my inbox.

Here’s a nice one I found on youtube that’s had over 17k views that gives you an idea of what I’m looking for!

* If you are an author, publicist, etc., and would like to inform my readers of your new book trailer, please feel to send me a line as well.

Disclosure notice: I work for the company that published this book and yes, I know Robin is not Latina. However, I chose this video based on view count, overall quality, and well, I like the book. I did search for Latino/a lit reviews and failed to find any promising ones, which is a signifier to me that we need to get the ball rolling on this. It’s in your court now.
