On Edelweiss, go to the book page, click on "Review," write a review, and under the "Nominate" section, select "Indie Next." Unfortunately, clicking "Much Love" does not count as a nomination.
On NetGalley, click the green “Title Feedback” button for any title in your account.

When nominating for the every-other-month Kids' Next List, please note these publication date parameters:

ABA member booksellers can nominate up to six (6) titles at a time, each time they submit the form.

TIPS

Next Lists blurbs are not reviews: Think of them like a tweet or a sound bite! How would you describe the book to a customer or friend? Please try and limit to 280 characters or less.
Write conversationally; think of what might follow "I loved it!" or "I couldn't put it down," or "Wow, that was an emotional journey..."
Don't be intimidated by the quotes you see in the final Next Lists. They've all been edited! (We'll take care of the grammar and punctuation....)
[1]You might already have a lot of nominations on hand — send in what's on the staff pick cards you've written up, or send in your staff picks from your newsletter or website.
All subject categories are welcome — fiction and nonfiction, hardover and paperback, for adult and children (all categories).
Help remind other staff members in your store to submit, too. Post the Next List Nomination Shelf-talker [2] wherever you keep your ARCs.

*Only nominations from ABA member booksellers will be considered.

Thank you!
