2026 - ABL Series S12 Ep 10 - Audiobook Reviews Matter: How to Write Helpful Reviews & Understanding FTC Disclosure Requirements

In this episode of the Audiobook Lovin Series, we're diving into one of the most important ways listeners can support authors, narrators, and publishers, reviews. Whether you're new to reviewing audiobooks or a seasoned ALC team member, we'll discuss what makes a review helpful, why it's important to credit narrators, what information listeners are actually looking for, and why simply repeating the book blurb doesn't help fellow readers. We'll also break down FTC disclosure requirements, explain why transparency matters, and discuss what reviewers need to know when sharing recommendations and promotional content. If you've ever wondered how a few sentences can make a big impact in the audiobook community, this episode is for you.
