However, as I recently figured out, the alerts sometimes miss blogs (and other pages) that the Google search engine picks up. I was recently searching for an old review of SZJMB on Google when I noticed pages that I had never received alerts for.
This lead me to search Google for undiscovered links to my book. Most turned out to be worthless, mostly Amazon affiliate links. But some were Gold. I found two reviews and a couple mentions of my book in blogs!
First, I found a great blog: Paranormal Sisters. They gave SZJMB 4.5 stars and wrote a great review. Here's a quote:
"Over all I totally loved and am happy with how it ended, with a slice of sense of humor. But I want more. Whether more of these characters or more of MJA Ware writing, which is lucky we get two bonus short stories along with this book. Yay. "
My reply is: Don't worry Dashley, book 2 is coming along! If you've never heard of this blog check it out, it has some great reviews and they provide updates on Free paranormal Kindle books.
Elsewhere, I found what seemed to be a great review from The Crew of Misfits:
"SUPER ZOMBIE JUICE MEGA BOMB is the first installment of this unique series that is something new, something fresh, and ..."
But alas, the site is now offline and all I can read of the review is that small portion which Google had cached.
I found one more blog: Jess Resides Here (header may not be work safe) recently got a copy and I'm keeping an out for the review.
Last, there was a really cool mention on the blog, Tales of a Semi-existent Being. Apparently, the blogger had a dream (maybe more of a deranged nightmare) inspired by a wonderful zombie book, Super Zombie Juice Mega Bomb (his words, not mine) :
"The zombies were giant pink fluffy teddie bears and they zombified you by giving you a hug."
Wow, that's what I call a dream, and the first dream (outside of my own while writing it) to be inspired by the book!
So, if you have Google News Alerts setup for your books, you may still want to check the Google search results out from time to time!
