(UPDATED AUG 1, 2026)
First, thank you for clicking the link or button that sent you here,
I'll try not to take up too much of your time, but I'm going to go over
what An ARC Reviewer is and what I'm looking for from mine.
If you already know what they are, feel free to skip down to the "What I look for" title.
⚠️Before you begin, I DO NOT pay for reviews.⚠️
I believe it to be unethical, so if you're looking for money or a paycheck from it,
please look elsewhere.
What is an ARC?
ARC stands for Advanced Reader/Review Copy. This is a book gifted to you by the Author (or publishing house) in exchange for an honest review and is usually handed out a month to a month in a half before the book release so you (the Reader) have time to read it before the Review section for said book is open.
What am I looking for in an ARC Reader?
This is much simpler than a Beta Reader. All I need is for you to read the book and the day of release or any time thereafter, leave a review on Amazon, Apple Books, Barnes & Noble, Goodreads, Kobo, Scribd, or anywhere else my books are sold, and your social media (if you do that). Even your book groups on Facebook, Discord, or so on would be AMAZING since most of the times book groups frown upon authors, even Indie ones like myself, posting book reviews and promotions.
Feel free to tag me in the post (all my socials are @BornAngelAuthor), this isn't a requirement, but I'd love to hear thoughts, conclusions, and even constructive criticism. If you find mistakes and wish to tell me PLEASE DO! The best way is to screenshot it and send that to my email: jenn@thebornangeluniverse.com, I know my books aren't perfect even after 4 editors, AND all the Betas.
Of note: in your reviews, DO NOT say that you got to ARC read the book. This can sometimes be flagged by Amazon and Goodreads.
You can however say so everywhere else... to my knowledge.
Up Next for ARC reading:
An Angel Enraged
(eBooks will be sent September 30, reminders will be sent in October 25th)
Book 7 of
the Kalista Chronicles
This ARC is specifically for those who have read Kalista Chronicles books 1-6 or at least 4, 5, & 6. The rest of this will contain a spoiler or two, so if you've not read them, head to THE SHOP and get all 6 for $8.99 read them, then come back to sign up to read and review this one.
WARNING: This book is rated NC-17 for ADULTS only. It contains sensitive material such as drugging, gore, blood, death, political bullshit, vulgar language, scenes of past torture, gaslighting, emotional manipulation, 2 funerals, and a wedding.
Kalista is out for revenge, and the only thing holding her back is timing. She will find her soul enemy and she will stop at nothing, not even her own safety to follow through on her threat: "Touch her, and I will rip your heart out with my bare hands."
