Become an ARC reader.
Want early access to upcoming releases? Apply to join my ARC team and receive advance copies of future books in exchange for an honest review if the story connects with you.
How it works
What to expect
This process is meant to be simple, fair, and clear for both you and me.
If selected, you may receive an advance copy of an upcoming Envy Mercury release before it goes live to the public.
ARC spots are not guaranteed for every applicant, and not every book will be a fit for every reader. I may match readers to future titles based on genre preferences, reading history, and review habits.
The goal is simple: get the right books into the hands of the right readers early.
Who this is for
Good fit for the ARC team?
The strongest ARC readers are readers who already know the kinds of stories they love.
You’re probably a good fit if you enjoy:
- Anime-inspired fantasy and romance
- Character-driven emotional arcs
- Slice-of-life warmth or darker fantasy stakes
- Leaving thoughtful reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, or socials
This may not be the best fit if:
- You only want free books with no plan to review
- You do not usually finish books you accept
- You are not comfortable giving honest feedback
My catalog includes fantasy, romance, and emotionally driven stories with different tones. Some readers may be a better fit for Misplaced Hero, while others may fit books like I Fell in Love With a Girl and She Just Loves Her Cat or November Seven.
That’s why this application helps me place the right book with the right reader instead of treating every ARC launch the same way.
