The Library

Written by Kristy

What Is the Library?

The Library is where you'll discover books from other authors that are available for review. Browse the available titles, select books that interest you, read them, and leave honest, informed reviews.

In return for completing reviews, you'll earn Snaps, which can be used to request reviews for your own books.

In the Library view, you'll find helpful information about each assignment, including:

  • Assignment Type

  • Snaps Awarded

  • Due Date

  • Genre

  • And more!

You can also use the filters located directly beneath the All Books heading to narrow your search by genre, assignment type, and other criteria to help you find books that match your interests.

The example below shows the Library with no filters applied.


How do I access the Library?

Go to the library by clicking READ in the left side menu of your dashboard to sign up to read books. Reading and reviewing books is the most popular way to


Verified Purchase (VP) Assignments

What is 'Requires Purchase Free Promotion'?

This refers to Verified Purchase Review assignments which are free on Amazon. Meaning, you will go to Amazon to purchase the book. But the book is free and does not require actual payment.

What is 'Requires Purchase $0.99, $1.99, $2.99, $3.99, and $4.99?'

These are Verified Purchase Review assignments which do require purchase. You will purchase the eBook on Amazon for the noted price.

Verified Purchase (VP) assignments offer additional Snap rewards. For every $1.00 spent on the book, you'll earn an extra 300 Snaps. This bonus is already included in the total Snap amount displayed in the Library beneath the book's cover image.

Important: If you accept a VP assignment, you must purchase the book through Amazon, even if the book is available through Kindle Unlimited (KU).

Reviews submitted for VP assignments that are not verified purchases may be considered unstamped reviews. Repeated instances of unstamped reviews can result in a 6-month suspension from participating in VP assignments.

What Does "Due Jan 29" Mean?

The due date is the deadline by which you must complete the review process. This includes:

  1. Reading the book

  2. Submitting your review on Amazon

  3. Turning in the assignment on Pubby

By the due date, you should submit the same star rating and review content to Pubby that you submitted to Amazon. To do this, select the same star rating you used on Amazon and paste the review content into the assignment submission form on Pubby.

⭐ We understand that Amazon may not have published your review yet. If your review link is not available by the due date, you should still submit the assignment on Pubby without the review URL. Once Amazon publishes your review, simply return to the assignment and add the review link.
