Advance Reader Programme

Thank you for reading it first.

You are holding a manuscript before it becomes a book. Everything you notice here — the passages that land, the ones that stall, the pages that need more room — shapes what finally goes to print.

Why this matters

How your feedback changes the book.

Advance readers are the only people who see the manuscript while it can still change. Four things happen with what you send.

It shows where the writing works

When several readers mark the same passage as the moment the book clicked, that section becomes the spine of the chapter around it.

It finds the sentences that lose people

Confusion is the most useful thing you can report. A paragraph that reads cleanly to the author is often the one carrying too much at once.

It decides what gets more room

Contracts, compensation, operations and leadership can each expand. Your notes determine which of them earns the extra pages before the manuscript locks.

It catches what proofing misses

Typos, wrong figures, repeated lines and broken references are corrected directly from this desk ahead of publication.

Reader feedback form

Tell us what you found.

Only your name and email are required. Answer whichever questions you have something to say about — partial feedback is genuinely useful.

Your responses are stored securely and read only by the editorial desk. We'll never share your email or publish your notes without asking you first.
