FAQs and fine print
Can I review any book I want?
No. You must review the book currently in the Hot Seat.
How do I find the current Hot Seat selection?
Visit the Hot Seat page on the League of Extraordinary Authors blog to view the trailer, test drive an excerpt and check out the reading group guide for the current selection.
What makes for a winning review?
There are no rules. Be creative. Reviews with the best chance of winning will be well-written, thoughtful and fair. Read the book with an open mind and take time to write a smart, funny, insightful review. We池e genuinely interested in your opinion. Praising or hating on the book without reading it will most likely be a waste of your time.
So you're not just bribing me to say I loved your book?
We appreciate the time you take to write a fair, thoughtful review. Rewards, prizes and incentives are our way to say, "Thank you!" Check out these two editorial reviews of Crazy for Trying, a novel by Stella Link founder Joni Rodgers. One reviewer loved the book; the other hated it. Both are well-written, thoughtful reviews.
What kind of books will be featured in the Hot Seat?
Excellent indie ebooks, self-published by authors with serious publishing credentials in multiple genres. The League of Extraordinary Authors is a coalition of bestselling, critically acclaimed, and established writers with a variety of stories to tell. We'll offer a wide range of general and literary fiction, suspense, love stories, family dramas, thrillers, mysteries and science fiction. We hope our Hot Seat selection will introduce readers to authors they haven't met and push the envelope beyond the usual fare.
What if I知 not interested in reading the Hot Seat selection?
Not every book is for every reader. If it痴 not your cup of tea, no worries. You値l find a different book in the Hot Seat every 90 days or so, and we値l be featuring a wide range of genre and general fiction. Stay frosty and visit us often at www.StellaLinkBooks.com. You値l find lots more opportunities to win prizes and earn points redeemable for free ebooks and more.
Do I have to buy a book to win?
No. You can borrow the book from a friend, use points, ask your local library if they're participating in ebook lending, etc. But we hope you will buy it, and to make it easy, our Hot Seat selection will be bargain priced at just $2.99 on Amazon, B&N and a variety of indie stores for a limited time.
How are winning reviews chosen?
Members of The League of Extraordinary Authors, a diverse coalition of bestselling, critically acclaimed and established writers, will read reviews and vote for their Top 20 favorites. The grand prize winner will be chosen by Stella Link founder Joni Rodgers and two members of the LEA. We reserve the right to select our favorite reviews based on our entirely subjective opinions.
What if I already reviewed this book elsewhere?
Copy and paste your review to repost the review on Amazon or B&N and send us the link. We love Good Reads and other review sites, but right now, due to time constraints, we can only consider Amazon and B&N reviews.
What if I post my review after the end date?
It値l be too late for this prize round, but you値l still get points for your review when we start our Reviewer Rewards program later this year.
Will I double my chances of winning if I post reviews on both Amazon and B&N?
Yes! You may post the same review on both sites or post two different reviews.
How will winners be announced?
The winning review will be featured on both StellaLinkBooks.com and the League of Extraordinary Authors blog. We値l email the winners with instructions on how to collect their prizes. Please do not contact us on the status of your entry. We are unable to answer emails requesting information on contest winners. Please visit www.StellaLinkBooks.com for final results.
