FAQs
About Reviewing
I would like to review your book. Can you send me a review copy?
If you are in the industry (trade publications, book bloggers, librarians, etc.) and would like to request a review copy of an upcoming release, please connect with the appropriate publicity contact for your country. VPR manages my ARCs for English-language North American releases, and they will have a signup form available up to six months before a book release. You can subscribe to my master list here and get an email notification when the signup form becomes available. Please note that signing up does not automatically mean you will receive an advance copy. VPR vets all requests and has limited ARCs available for distribution. Please refer to the appropriate publisher's request process for review copies in other languages.
I wrote a book. Can you blurb it for me?
Due to a busy publishing schedule, I am only able to accept a few requests each year. If you would like to submit a request, please contact my agent (see Contact page for email)
