Shelf Scout is DartFrog’s reader discovery platform, connecting authors with thousands of curated readers interested in discovering new books.

All authors—whether published independently, traditionally, or hybrid—can submit their books to Shelf Scout for free. Selected books are made available to Shelf Scout readers at no cost, based on their genre interests. Readers request books that interest them and share their honest reactions through the structured Shelf Scout form.

Books published by DartFrog receive the added benefit of Shelf Scout social media promotion, extending reader engagement beyond the Shelf Scout platform, with each participating Shelf Scout reader engaging with our social media post announcing your book’s release.
