I am sticking to Netgalley lol that is confusing

[Sarah Elizabeth]

edelweiss is much more difficult to navigate. It took me ages to work it out.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

New on Edelweiss (I ♡ you HarperCollins)-

[Tati]

I'm not requesting anything else for now LOL Still have some 25 requests pending (most will be probably denied, but still)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Good luck Tatiana ☺ I have loads pending but I think I'm going to get declined because I'm not in the US.

[Jacquelyn]

I requested some books on Edelweiss but have no idea how I would find out if I was accepted for them or not.. Help?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

If you go to the page where the review copies are listed -



On the left hand side, under the tabs you'll see three smaller tabs - 'titles' 'downloads' 'requests'
click on requests, and it will bring you to a page with a list of all your requests, and information on whether they have been approved/declined/ or still pending ☺

[Jacquelyn]

Thank you so much!!!

[Mei]

Hmm..Edelweiss is not exactly user-friendly, so is there a way to edit your profile details when you first signed up? How can I increase the chances of being accepted? I don't know how their system works since I'm a newbie. LOL. Thanks for the help!

[Jacquelyn]

I am not so sure myself.. Yeah, it isn't that user-friendly. Sarah probably knows!

[Mei]

I actually found it! In Administration. Hahaha. I'd just like to know if I could update my links -- goodreads and those kinds of websites. Anyway, thanks Jacquelyn!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

The only way I've found to edit details is to change them in the box that pops up when you request a title or submit a review. I haven't found another way!

You're right about it not being user friendly either, and unlike Netgalley there's no way to know which publishers can only approve requests from US citizens or anything - believe me I've tried!

The only way I've found to get accepted more on edelweiss is to keep up to date with reviews. WhenI have 20 outstanding, I get no new review copies. If I can get it down to 2 outstanding, then I get some requests approved. There really is no way that I've found to work out what publishers want or who they're likely to approve. it kinda sucks.

[Mei]

Wow, I have now proven that this website is hard to figure out compared to NetGalley. It's like they don't want their users to. Haha! And I'm from Asia, so that's decreasing my chances now, Lol!

What do you mean by 20 outstanding? Like, reviews pending, waiting to be written?

Thanks for your help Sarah!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Yes - reviews not yet submitted. I've been getting through them, but I still have 10 outstanding, so I'm not expecting any approvals any time soon!

[Jacquelyn]

Yeah, I really have to read all the ones from Edelweiss but I am in a reading slump and ugh. I will get through it though! (:

It is a website where you an request books that haven't come out yet in exchange for a review. They are free but it does cost a review. I am super bad at explaining Edelweiss so hopefully someone else can help you!

I got it, but they didn't respond to me until after the book had already come out and I had already purchased a physical copy. Oh well!

[Dana]

Do you guys just copy/paste your goodreads profile onto your netgalley profile? I cant request books yet because I haven't filled out my profile but I feel like my goodreads profile is too informal for a site for "professional readers"

[Sarah Elizabeth]

You need to put a link to your goodreads profile, but in your netgalley profile you should try to sell yourself as a reviewer - let them know how many books you have so far reviewed, how many followers you have on goodreads/twitter/your blog/facebook etc.and anything else that may convince a publisher to let you read their book ☺

Hey guys! I set up a Netgalley account and want to start reading a few Read Now books to look better when I start to request from publishers only problem is that I cannot find my kindle email address. Do I really need it? Otherwise, how else do they send you the books? Thanks. I am sorry this is probably a really stupid question but I am lost!! :)

From your home screen, tap the little gear in the upper right (settings).
Tap, More...
Tap, My Account

Your kindle account should be listed under the device name 'something'@kindle.com

If you have more questions, with your account you can contact Kindle directly.

[rachel, x]

@Kurt Yeah! I found it. Thanks so much. It wasn't exactly like you said (I don't have a gear button thingy) but I figured it out. Netgalley's instructions weren't even close how to find it so thanks a lot!! :)

[rachel, x]

Yayyyyyyyy! I just got my first Netgalley book. Settling down with it and a cup of coffee. Feeling elated, I hope all this fuss was worth it!

Awesome! What book did you get?

[rachel, x]

I got . I just finished the first book and it was okay. Not anything great but alright. :)

[Dana]

Oh it was a short book? I just got

[rachel, x]

Its pretty sure. It has three books in it and I just finished the first one. I think its about 100 pages a book? :)

That's sounds good! Lucky you! I am trying to read a few "read now"s before requesting something! :)

[Dana]

Am I a snob for thinking the read nows' are probably of lesser quality then the requested ones?

[rachel, x]

@Dana I don't know! I think they might be. I won't say that is snobby though!! :) A friend said that reading and reviewing them is a great way to start and make the Netgalley publishers' like you more. :) Some of the books sound really good. :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I've read some really good 'read now' books, and some really bad ones. & were both 'read now' and I loved both of them ☺ was pretty good too ☺

[Abi]

was an okay "read now" too. :)

[rachel, x]

I am definitely keep my eyes out for good ones now. :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Sometimes it's really surprising what is on there as a 'read now'!
