One of the ways to grow your book review blog or bookstagram is by reading and reviewing ARCs (advance review copies). These advance copies let book bloggers, influencers, and tastemakers read new fiction early, and start the conversation about the new book. New book bloggers always want to know how to get these ARCs!
For bloggers and book reviewers looking for review copies, eBookFairs has a new list of ARCs available to request. Each request will be viewed and approved or denied by the author. Reviewers commit to reading and sending an honest review, not an automatic five-star rave review. Do you want to find new indie writers and add even more to that TBR pile? Of course you do. (Please ignore that my Emotional Support Bookstack is taking over my nightstand.)
eBookFairs also organizes online book roundups around a particular topic. With each new book fair, you can see recommendations and vote for your favorites on a topic. Right now, the fiction book fair topics are fantasy, historical fiction, YA, and more, with a mythology-themed one coming soon. While you’re there, you should definitely check out eBookFair’s bookish giveaway on each book fair. Entering is simple, just visit one of the book fairs and enter your email for a chance to win the gift card, and make a dent in your bookish wishlist.
Besides review copies and voting on favorite books, eBookFairs has a whole range of other bookish features for authors. There’s an AI feature to create character names, and another AI feature to analyze a book cover’s quality. And of course, indie authors can set up book fairs and share their ARCs with reviewers here.
Our friends at eBookFairs have these two great ways for readers to add to our TBRs, both through ARCs and through a $50 raffle. So when you go to eBookFairs, you can vote for favorite books, browse possible ARCs, and enter the giveaways!

The ambiance of the book fair was enchanting, creating a welcoming space for book lovers to explore and discover new worlds through the pages of countless books.
