As an author, one of the most valuable assets you can have is honest, thoughtful feedback—and that’s why I recently joined Pubby. It’s a review exchange platform where authors read and review each other’s books in exchange for receiving reviews on their own. So far, it’s been a game-changer for my writing journey.
Not only has Pubby helped increase the number of verified reviews on my books (which, let’s face it, is essential for credibility and visibility), but it’s also opened the door to an incredible learning experience. Every book I read through Pubby teaches me something new. Whether it’s storytelling techniques, character development, niche knowledge, or simply fresh perspectives, I’m gaining insights that I can apply to my own work.
The platform is easy to use and encourages a fair, respectful reviewing system. You don’t review books in your own genre, which means you get to explore topics and styles you may have never considered before. That diversity alone is worth the membership.
More importantly, Pubby fosters a community of writers helping writers. There’s a sense of mutual respect and support that makes the process rewarding beyond just the reviews. If you’re a self-published author looking to grow your reader base, improve your craft, and build momentum for your books, I highly recommend giving Pubby a try. It’s more than just about reviews—it’s about growing as a writer in a community that understands the journey.
