While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

Company details
Written by the company
BookReverb is a platform that connects publishers with motivated readers to generate honest, high-quality reviews. We help authors and publishers launch and promote their books by offering a structured, feedback-driven review process. Our network of real readers engages with books and provides thoughtful reviews on Amazon and other channels—never incentivized or biased, and always within platform guidelines. At BookReverb, compliance and integrity come first. We do not pay for or manipulate reviews. Instead, we provide digital reading copies and compensate readers for their time spent reading, not for the content or tone of their feedback. This ensures authentic, trustworthy reviews that publishers can rely on—and readers can believe in. Whether you’re launching a debut novel or amplifying a new release, BookReverb gives your book the visibility and reader engagement it deserves.

They are very responsive
They are very responsive, especially when I have queries. They are very helpful for indie authors like me who need book reviews and support. I really appreciate their quick replies and guidance.
Easy review service to use
I have used other book review services. This has the advantage not having to engage in a round of reviews of other books and gives me space to write.
Real and genuine reviews
I like how real and genuine reviews I've gotten on my books. I would like it even more if they could make it available for real purchase as well
Reviews are fair and thourough
Reviews are fair and thorough. Done in a timely manner. New experience, but a tremendous value and resource for authors and publishers.
Real reviews from relevant audience
What a great opportunity to get your book seen by relevant readers. I am so grateful to have received legitimate reviews from this experience, it really makes a difference on Amazon. Thank you BookReverb, and thank you to those who took the time to review my book!
Saves time — verified purchase reviews would make it even better
I’ve been using BookReverb to get early reviews for my book, and overall the platform is helpful and easy to use. It definitely saves time compared to chasing individual readers, sending PDFs manually, and following up — everything is more streamlined in one place.
However, I think it could improve by attracting more genuine readers who actually engage with the content. Verified purchase reviews or more active readers would make the system stronger and more reliable for authors.
Overall, it’s a useful tool, especially for saving time and simplifying the process, but there is still room for improvement.

I have found BookReverb very easy to use. The platform is straight forward and the company follows KDP compliance guidelines. That is essentials for true book reviews.
Reviews came in quick and as expected
So far, so good!
So far, so good! I've been worried about my reviews ever since KDP started going crazy with removing reviews, banning books, etc. I haven't had an issue with Book Reverb yet, which means they're doing something right.
The reviews come as advertised
The reviews come as advertised. But some are so short, I wonder if the individual actually read the book.

One of the few tools for pro writers and publishers that actually works. They put your book in front of real readers.

Poor Quality Reviews from Readers Who Didn't Read
THANKFULLY I tried this service after I already had a fair amount of proper reviews, including a few editorial ones, because the quality of these reviews, with perhaps one or two exceptions, was extremely poor. I think only one of the readers actually even read the book, and some of the reviews were either one sentence or they CLEARLY just commented on what they THOUGHT the book was about but not the actual material, so it absolutely wold mislead a reader. I can see why people would worry that their KDP accounts might get pulled from this service. Sure, these readers are under no obligation to leave a review, but I am unconvinced they are actual readers. At least, most of mine weren't. I actually turned off my campaign while I still had a balance in my account because the quality was so poor, I did not want to risk any more of that stuff on my feed. I can not in good faith recommend this to anyone serious about their work.
