ARC

WARRINGTON PUBLISHING ARC READERS

We give you a free e-book. You give our author a review. It’s that simple.

Advance Reader Copies (ARCs) are pre-publication copies of books that publishers distribute to reviewers, booksellers, librarians, and influencers to generate buzz before a book’s official release. We provide ours in digital format, which may still contain errors or unfinished details since they are not the final version.

We administer our ARCs through a third party called Booksprout for tracking purposes and ease of delivery. Here’s how it works:

  1. Click the button below and sign up for the Warrington ARC Team. You will be added to a list and receive an email (usually once a month) with the advance copies that are available.

  2. Click the link, and you will be taken to Booksprout where you can sign up for a FREE reader account and read the description to decide if it’s something you are interested in.

  3. If you agree to review the book, you can download it to your device.

  4. Once complete, you will get reminders to post your review.

That’s it. It’s very straightforward. Here are a couple of catches and things you should be aware of:

  • There is no obligation to sign up for every ARC you are sent as a member of the team. Not everyone likes fantasy novels. Thriller readers may not like spicy romances. Only sign up for the books in genres that interest you.

  • There is no fee involved. At all. Ever.

  • Your e-mail will not be shared with our authors or any third party other than Booksprout.

  • The review doesn’t need to be a book report like we used to write in school. There is no requirement for a two-page synopsis. A few lines about what you liked or didn’t like about the book are sufficient.

  • If you cannot finish a review, just let us know through Booksprout or email us.

  • If you agree to an ARC and then ghost us, you will be removed and banned from future participation.

  • The book is provided to you in return for a fair review. We value honesty. You will not be expected nor pressured to give five stars or a glowing review. We hope you love it, but there is no penalty from us if you don’t.
