Join the Advanced Reader Team
Read new titles before release. One obligation in return.
Before each new title goes live on Amazon, a small group of readers receives an advance copy. In return, I ask for one thing — an honest review posted on Amazon on or around release day.
That's the arrangement. No catch, no complicated process. You read the book, you post your review, you stay on the team.
If something in the book isn't working — a plot inconsistency, an editing issue, something that pulls you out of the story — I'd rather hear it from you by email before the book goes live than read it in a review afterwards.
That kind of feedback isn't required, but it is genuinely valued. A reader who can pinpoint what's wrong and explain why is rare. If that's you, say so in your application.
The Commitment
- You receive an advance copy before the book goes on sale
- You read it and post an honest review on Amazon on or close to release day
- If you spot something that needs attention, you email me directly before the book goes live
- Members who don't review are removed — the arrangement only works if both sides hold up their end
