Join Our Street Team!
Read our books for free.
Whats a street team? (The Short Version)
What you do:
- You get access to all our forthcoming books as eARCS and you get to see all our beautiful covers before they're publically released.
- In exchange, you share honest reviews of the books within a week of their release day and participate in as many of our cover reveals on social media as you can.
What you get:
- Early access to all our great titles.
- eARCs or print book ARCs depending on your location and social media presence.
- Book merch and publisher swag (*if within the continental US)
- Prologue and/or first chapter samples of our forthcoming titles.
You don't have to give us your favorite mug for tea, pet-sit our cats, or climb Mount Doom.
We just want your help promoting our books by word-of-mouth and social media.
That's all!

Whats a street team? (The Long Version)
A Street Team is a dedicated group of passionate readers who help spread the word about our books—both online and in the real world. You’ll be our secret weapon, helping to promote authors and their stories in fun and meaningful ways.
As a Street Team member, you’ll:
- Distribute promo materials like bookmarks and flyers
- Post reviews and book recommendations online
- Request our books at local libraries and bookstores
- Spread the word through social media and word-of-mouth
- Participate in exclusive cover art reveals
Who Can Apply?
To be part of the team, you should:
✔️ Love speculative fiction
✔️ Read at least four ARCs per year and post reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, and any bookish platforms you use within a week of the book’s official release
✔️ Participate in most of our cover reveals
You don’t have to read everything we publish! Just let us know which genres and authors excite you most. Also, you don’t need to be a mega-influencer—anyone with a love for books and a willingness to share is welcome! (But if you do have a bookstagram or bookish social media, we’ll send extra goodies for those stunning flat lays!)
What’s in It for You?
As a Stag Beetle Books Street Team member, you’ll get:
📚 Free ARCs (e-books via BookFunnel) of all our releases
🎁 Exclusive swag—bookmarks, vinyl stickers, mugs, posters, signed copies, and more
🖌️ First look at cover reveals
🏆 Fun monthly challenges (like requesting a book at your library or sharing a tweet) with prizes ranging from signed books and posters to author chats and even a possible shout-out in an upcoming book’s acknowledgments!
In short: Free books, exclusive swag, behind-the-scenes access, and a personal connection to our authors—just for helping spread the word about our stories.
💡 International readers are welcome! If you live outside the continental U.S., you can still be part of our Street Team! Your ARCs will be digital, and your swag will likely be as well due to shipping costs—but we’ll still make sure you feel the love.
