How the app works

Three chapters.
One fair exchange.

Give a review, get a review. Snaps keep the exchange fair for everyone.

  1. 1

    Add your books

    Tell readers what makes your book special and choose how they can access it.

  2. 2

    Earn Snaps

    Pick a book from the library, try it, and share an honest review. Snaps land the moment you claim; a verified review keeps them.

  3. 3

    Get reviews

    Readers discover your book. Your dashboard tells you when they start — and when their review is live.

MTMarcus ThompsonAuthor of Code of Shadows
“The community here is incredible. Not only did I get reviews, but I discovered amazing books to try. It's a win-win.”
RCRachel ChenAuthor of Starlight Promise
“Every review is checked against the live link before readers get credit. My readers actually engaged with my book.”
