§ ARC Team
Read it early. Review it honestly.
ARC copies are advance reading copies. You get the book before everyone else. You post an honest review when it goes live. That’s the whole deal.
§ How it works
How it works
Apply.
Fill out the application below. Applications are reviewed ahead of each book cycle, not on a rolling basis.
Get approved.
You’ll receive an email confirming your spot. If the current round is full, you’ll be added to the waitlist for the next title.
Receive the book.
ARCs are distributed via NetGalley or BookFunnel, depending on the release. You’ll get the link and any access codes you need.
Post your review at launch.
You pick where: Goodreads, StoryGraph, Amazon, your blog, your feed. Honest means honest — a three-star review is fine. A no-show is not.
Repeat.
ARC readers who follow through get first consideration for the next book. It’s a simple system.
What’s expected
You post, or you don’t stay on the list. There’s no judgment — life gets in the way, books don’t work for every reader, timelines shift. But if you receive an ARC and go silent at launch, that’s the end of the arrangement. Accountability isn’t punishment. It’s how this works for everyone.
Reviews go live on publication day, not before.
What you get
- Early access — you read it weeks before it’s available anywhere
- Free copy of the book, no purchase required
- The exclusive ARC reader newsletter with behind-the-scenes content
- First to know when the next book opens for ARC applications
Applications
Apply for ARC access.
Applications are reviewed per book cycle, not continuously. Response time is typically 2–4 weeks before a release window opens. Approval is based on review history, platform activity, and available spots — not follower count. Being on the list for one book does not guarantee placement for every future title.
