So what are beta-readers?
Get the bad reviews out of the way early! Have a test group of readers see your work and be as critical as possible with it now instead of publically and angrily in the reviews section.
They volunteer to read your book and provide feedback before you publish it. You use their feedback to inspire your final revision. If you publish without the input of beta readers, you're more likely to overlook easily fixable flaws that would undermine reader satisfaction. The best time to work with beta readers is before you publish and after you've already completed your self-editing. You want your book to be as near final as possible. Smart Author Podcast Notes
