How to Leave a Review
If one of my books or audiobooks kept you up past your bedtime, one of the biggest things you can do to help is leave a review. It doesn't need to be long. A few honest sentences about the characters, the story, or the narration makes a real difference for an indie author like me.
Below are all the places you can post a review. You don't have to hit every single one, but if you're willing to cross-post on even a few, it helps get the book in front of more readers. You'll need a free account on most of these, but odds are you already have one.
Find the book on my author page and rate or review it.
Search the title on BookBub and leave a rating.
Mark it read and drop your thoughts in a review.
Reviews here help both ebook and audiobook readers.
Leave a star rating and a short review on the book's page.
Ratings and written reviews both help here.
Leave a review on the book's B&N product page.
Chirp now allows reviews without a purchase. Scroll to "Ratings & Reviews" and click "Add Review."
If you listened through a review copy or code, a rating here goes a long way.
Leave it under the Audiobook or Audible tab if that's how you listened.
shop.carlywrites.com — reviews help here too.
TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, wherever you like to post. Tag me if you make a video, I love seeing them.
Thank you for supporting indie authors, and for spending time with my books. It means more than you know.
