It's not showing up as 'read now' for me.

is on Netgalley - I just requested it, although I'm trying not to request so much this year!

I am also being more selective. And I also have not been finding much on netgalley that I want to request.

The Start of Me and You is an amazing contemporary! It has fantastic relationships in it. :)

That's good to hear! I have heard some good things, and I really hope I'm approved for it.

Not any good?

[Tati]

THis was the feedback I sent them:

"I will not be finishing this book (after making it to around 30%), as I developed a strong dislike for the main trio of characters. Their actions felt too brutal and unjustified for me to keep reading, and the world building and plot were too underdeveloped for me to keep reading."

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Not good then!

Does anyone know if its possible to gift books you own on your kindle to someone elses kindle? Or just in a file? Sorry I'm so behind with tech.

[[deleted user]]

how do i request books on Edelweiss or just find book i want to request or download im new to that site.

[rachel, x]

When you're browsing the review copies on Edelweiss there will be a rectangular button on the right hand side (next to each available title) that says "request digital RC" below the date it was added. If you click on that it will pop up with a box. You need to fill in a small bio (talk about how many followers you have, if you have a blog, how many pageviews per month etc.) and a reason you want to request the book. Once you filled it in, click on the "submit" button. Done!

You can also request by clicking on the title of the book (bolded in blue) which will take you to the book's page. On the right there is the same "request digital RC" button.

hey Rachel do you have to request these books?

[rachel, x]

No. You don't have to request any books. You get to pick out what you want to read. :)

I'm not sure sorry Dana!

I think you must have been pre-approved Rachel, because all of those books show up with the blue 'request' button for me.

[rachel, x]

Oh sorry, I see the mistake now. I thought Marley meant does she have to request those particular books (the ones she said in message 1818). I meant you get to pick and choose which books you want to request, not whether you are allowed to request or not. Sorry for the confusion. :)

They don't show up at all with a blue 'request' button for me.

I had this same problem with Edelweiss, when I used Firefox - when I tried another browser the request button was there, though. Took me forever to figure out!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I use firefox all the time and it shows up for me ☺

That's strange ... For me it just shows up blank on Firefox. Must be my laptop.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

maybe it needs updates? I don't know, I'm useless with computers!

Could be! I just don't use it anymore, haha

I logged in again using google chrome and it was there. How do you know if you have been approved for the books you wanted to read...I have no clue how to use edelweiss.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

This comment here explains how to find the titles you've requested, and whether you've been approved - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

[Jennifer]

You usually get an email to say if you're approved or declined. But you can also look under "requests".

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I never get emails from edelweiss to say if I've been accepted or declined. I think I've had maybe 2 in nearly 3 years.

[Jennifer]

I think you only get the email if they respond to your request by writing something. I almost always get a message, especially with Harper Collins/HarperTeen.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I've had them write a message and it shows up on the requests page, but I still don't get an email.

[Tati]

Yeah, HarperCollins never fails to send an e-mail. I'm waiting for one actually LOL

[Dory]

They [publishers] usually have an automatic email sent if you have been declined on NetGalley. On Edelweiss you get an email if you get accepted from edelweiss, to tell you how to access it, not the publisher.

[rachel, x]

I always get an email from Edelweiss when I get approved. :)

[Jennifer]

I have also gotten emails when I've been declined from edelweiss.

[rachel, x]

Yeah, same. :) In fact I got two approval emails today. :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I must just be special, they hardly ever email me. I think I've had 2 emails from simon pulse in the past, but that's it.

[Tati]

What did you get, Rachel?

I requested , but no reply yet (it'll likely be a no)

[Dana]

Guys I've been wondering for those of you that get approved a lot/ have auto approval what is the secret?

Did it start once you got to a certain number of followers? Reviews? Ratio? Do you have to have a blog and cross post everywhere? Are the bigger publishers the harder to get arcs from? Sorry for all the questions just very curious.

[Jennifer]

I don't have a blog just my reviews on goodreads. I am not auto-approved for anything. But for me on edelweiss once a certain publisher likes you they tend to approve you for almost anything you ask for. So in the blurb where you get to describe why you want to read the book you should write something good.

The ratio helps them alot. I have a friend that works at a publishing company. I asked her about this, what you do (Assosiations, Teacher, Author, Blogger etc..) and the ratio. If they have readers that review common enough and well enough (not +/- but common and quality. (You know what they really want though x) )) Bigger publishers are pickier, but they also have more to hand out. Handing out reviews over multiple platforms help too.

I need to work on my ratio. I requested a bunch and haven't finished them all quite yet...

[rachel, x]

@Tati I got approved for .

@Dana I don't think there's a secret really. I do have a blog that I post my reviews on but I don't have a high number of followers and I have only be declined about three out of fifty times on Edelweiss. I also don't have any auto-approvals.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I don't know what the secret is, but I will say that every time I've got an auto-approval, it's been when I've got zero reviews outstanding. So maybe the ratio is the key.

[Jennifer]

I am reading all the e-books i get from edelweiss in advance of the release date (not requesting anything that I won't 100% read). But they give you the books 5+ months in advance. So I can never have no reviews outstanding. I will always have at least 10 books to read in the upcoming months. Or by "reviews outstanding" do you mean books that have already been released?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

No, when I got my auto-approval from HarperCollins on Edelweiss, I was 100% up to date with my reviews, I didn't have a single book downloaded that I hadn't read and reviewed.

My third book, CRUEL SUMMER, is up on NetGalley, but I'm also looking to give away e-books (for reviews) of all my books, which have been compared to the Bloodlines series (I have not read it), Vampire Academy (haven't read it), and the Lux series (LOVED IT!).

You'll be happy to know that I have no vampires, aliens or werewolves in my books. I am offering UNDERTOW, STORMFRONT, and advanced ARC copies of CRUEL SUMMER - just message me and I will get back to you :)
