For readers wanting to navigate the overwhelming flood that has become the self-published e-book market, there is finally a glimmer of hope - the IndieReader.com website. The window of opportunity in which digital publishing made self-publishing truly viable seemed to be closing, in my opinion, because there were so many people doing it that it was its own slush pile. How could readers EVER find you in all that stuff? Every writing group I'm part of has a constant stream of announcements about people's new e-releases, free book giveaways, etc., etc. And the reviewing mechanisms were too easily exploited just by getting friends to review your book, or paying someone to review it. I've been getting so discouraged by this whole notion.
ANYWAY, the IndiReader website seems to be like a breath of fresh air, a place for truly independent reviews and opinions on the indie, e-book, self-publishing market. Check it out:
