For a Scookie Review

Calling all self-published and small press authors

*This is something I’d like to get back to one day, but for now it’s on pause. Page under construction.

I’m [not] currently accepting review copies for my YouTube series: Scookie Reviews Indie Books. Check out the channel below to see what types of book I read. If your book matches, then complete the form below.

I aim to provide positive (3.5 star or higher) reviews with critical feedback which might be useful to other writers. Even if I love a book, my reviews will likely always contain some critique as I use books as a learning point for my own writing. As I know one less than great review can really harm an indie author, I will also pass if I don’t feel I can truly be an advocate for your story. I am not looking to make negative book reviews of indie books.

So if you’ve written a fantasy, dystopian, paranormal, or apocalyptic book for any age audience, then I’d love to review it! All I ask is for a gratis copy of the book.

While my preference is to receive an eBook first so I can check it’s suitable for review, if you want to follow up with a print copy, then I will prioritise your book. A hard copy gives me something to hold up in the video, and I can also comment on the overall finish of the book. I’m more than happy to have an eBook only, but I won’t be able to comment on the full product.

If you send me a print copy and I decide against creating a review, I would like to offer you feedback on your first couple of chapters as compensation. Most of the time it’s because the book isn’t quite ready for publication (in my singular opinion). My hope is that my feedback can help you revise and publish a new edition, although I understand not everyone will be interested. However, feedback can take me a fair bit of time, so I’d appreciate if you could let me know by ticking the box below if you’re interested.

Thank you for trusting me with your words, and I look forward to reading your book.
