An Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) book is a pre-publication version of a book that is distributed to reviewers, booksellers, librarians, and other influencers in the literary community before the official release date. ARCs are often uncorrected proofs or unfinished versions of the final book, and they may contain typographical errors, formatting issues, or other imperfections that are later addressed in the final version. Publishers provide ARCs as a way to generate buzz and garner early feedback for upcoming releases, helping to build anticipation and promote the book prior to its official launch. Reviewers and other recipients of ARCs are typically expected to provide feedback or write reviews to help generate publicity and build momentum for the book's release.
