I really hope to be asked to review the updated version of David Chilton's The Wealthy Barber.  That book was, and still is, PF gospel here in Canada.

Don't wait around to be asked.  Figure out who the publishing imprint is and find their PR email address.  Email them a short intro to your site with a few of the subscriber stats and ask for a review copy of the book when they become available.  It doesn't work everytime, but I've gotten quite a few fiction books that way.  They're always looking for PR for new books.  If you come to them first, it saves them some trouble in finding reviewers.

Thanks BB!

I did email the Chilton team directly already but i'll try this as well.

You should just go ahead and ask them for the review copy. I do this all the time and they send me the book–just find the contact person on the publisher's page.

I received a request from Johnny of Debt Free and Wealthy as well.  I am curious as he had many glowing reviews on Amazon.  It would take some time, but it would be outside my usual comfort zone, and he is truly only offering feedback at least.
