C) that are unreadably terrible in any other way.

A) that are not actually books.

C) Persuade book reviewers on BookTok or Substack or someplace to recommend your book. If your book is unreadably terrible, this is probably impossible.

D) that are presented with bad covers, bad descriptions, or ludicrously bad interior formatting.

B) Build a newsletter mailing list of people who will buy your book because they trust you to write books they want to read. This is slow, but ideal.

D) Pay promotion services like Written Word Media to promote your book. Legitimate services will not accept your book for promotion if the presentation is crappy or the book is badly written.
