You’ve written the book. Now it’s time to get readers talking about it.
An ARC (Advance Reader Copy) campaign is the secret behind many successful indie launches. ARC readers receive a free digital copy of your book before release in exchange for honest reviews and word-of-mouth support once your book goes live. Those early reviews are powerful — they build credibility, attract new readers, and give your book the visibility it deserves.
With Stacks Publishing’s ARC Reader Service, you don’t have to do any of the chasing. We promote your book directly to our 2,500+ Substack Bookstore readers and authors, through our sister publication Free Books, First — a trusted community of people who love discovering and championing new indie titles.
We take care of everything:
Promote your book to thousands of engaged readers in your genre
Manage reader interest and distribution via BookFunnel (keeping all emails private)
Coordinate reminders and follow-ups so reviews are shared on time
Deliver a final summary of responses and review activity
Every campaign is personally managed by Fleur Hull, founder of Stacks Publishing and The Substack Bookstore, ensuring your ARC reaches genuine readers who are excited to support indie authors.
Like all ethical review services, we can’t guarantee reviews — but we can guarantee your book will reach readers who are eager to help it succeed.
Perfect for: Authors preparing for launch who want early visibility, social proof, and strong Amazon momentum.
Launch stronger. Build buzz before release.
Book your ARC Reader Service today and let us help you turn early readers into your biggest advocates.
Please note there is an additional charge of US$5 to join the Free Books First Substack.
