Library Tales First Look Club

The Library Tales First Look Club is a free community of passionate readers who love discovering new books before they're released. Members receive complimentary advance reader copies (also known as galleys or ARCs) of select upcoming Library Tales Publishing titles weeks before publication, giving them an exclusive opportunity to experience new stories before they reach bookstores and the general public.

Our members play an important role in helping independent authors launch successfully. By reading advance copies and sharing their honest opinions through online reviews, social media, blogs, book communities, videos, podcasts, or conversations with fellow readers, First Look Club members help introduce exciting new books to a wider audience while providing valuable early feedback to authors and publishers.

The program is completely free to join. There are no membership fees, purchase requirements, or minimum commitments. Members simply tell us the genres they enjoy, and when a title matches their interests, they'll be invited to receive a complimentary digital or print advance copy, subject to availability.

In return, we simply ask that members provide thoughtful, honest reviews and help spread the word about the books they enjoy. We never ask for positive reviews—only genuine opinions. Authentic reader feedback is one of the most valuable gifts an author can receive and helps other readers discover books they may love.

Members of the First Look Club also enjoy occasional behind-the-scenes content, cover reveals, author Q&As, launch announcements, exclusive giveaways, and invitations to participate in future publishing opportunities.

At Library Tales Publishing, we believe great books deserve passionate readers. The First Look Club connects independent authors with an engaged community of book lovers who want to champion fresh voices, discover hidden gems, and become part of a book's journey from manuscript to bestseller.

Whether you're an avid reviewer, an active member of the online book community, or simply someone who loves being among the first to discover an unforgettable story, we'd love to welcome you to the Library Tales First Look Club. Together, we can help outstanding independent books find the readers they deserve.
