Beta Reading

Beta Reading

We provide an overarching report that reviews what works and what doesn't in your story, based on the book genre's reader expectations.

Is this service right for you?

If you’ve just finished your novel and want a professional opinion without committing to the investment of a full edit, a beta read could be the right step. You’ll receive an editorial report highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of your novel, along with suggestions for improvement—all at a fraction of the cost of an editing package.

This service does not include in-text edits or tracked changes in the manuscript, and it is not a substitute for editing. If you’re a first-time author, we recommend starting with a developmental edit instead.

What authors say about us

“Invaluable Editing Expertise”

“Alexa makes the entire editing process comfortable. She’s like a long lost friend with invaluable editing expertise. Pricing is very competitive! I had reached out to various editing companies and overall Luna Imprints was the best option based on pricing, offerings, personality, & knowledge. Alexa helped me to improve my novel to a degree I never thought possible. I’m so thrilled with Alexa’s kindness, knowledge, and patience and I plan to hire Luna Imprints again for my next novel. No matter what level of editing you require, you need Alexa and her team!”

Connie Chyle Rossner

Author of Me & Eryn Carlo, a chick lit novel
