Free guides from GetBookReviews
Two short guides, free to download and free to share unchanged. No sign-up needed. Both explain how honest reviews work, what the stores allow, and where GetBookReviews fits in. We run GetBookReviews and say so in the books.
How to Get Your First 50 Honest Reviews as an Indie Author
A rules-first plan for advance reader teams, reader platforms and launch week: store review rules in plain English, a ninety-day plan, templates and a tracking sheet. No tricks, no promises; nobody can guarantee reviews.
Free Books Before Anyone Else: The Reader's Guide to ARCs
What advance reader copies are, where readers find them, the etiquette of a good ARC reader, a five-part review template and how to stay safe from scams. Nobody has to write a review.
About GetBookReviews
GetBookReviews is a free reading platform built by a small community, for readers and authors. Readers discover indie books for free and collect Bookmarks while they read; authors can list a finished book without a subscription. Nobody is required to write a review, reviews cannot be bought or traded, and none is guaranteed.
Reading tip: EPUB works in any e-reader app; the PDF is laid out for phones and tablets. Both guides were written with the help of an AI language model and edited by the GetBookReviews team.
