Advance Reader Copies (ARCs)

My bookstore gets sent ARCs! They send they reviews to the publisher (they are smaller reviews to recommend the book to certain types of readers) and put them on display at the store!!
..."
ooh that's really cool!

yeah, that doesn't work if the file is .acsm somehow
even though i used it for downloading a protected epub file from a publisher not 2 months back
i'm just so pissed right now, an di even renamed the fuckyou.acsm
maybe that was a little extreme
but yeah, if anyone has any tips?


what are you sharing it through? and you're opeining through ade? and reading through ade as well?


so to summarise, you download the .acsm file on the chromebook, upload it to drive, access drive on device that has ade, and open through ade? it's not exaclty what i need, but it does help in eliminating methods!




do you know what i'm supposed to put for "company"?
and what did you guys do for your age?

ME TOO BUT IT'S GOING TO BE ALRIGHT. HOW MANY ARCS DO YOU HAVE?

so

so"
they better approve u

it depends on the publisher!! for me, it ranges from a week to a month ehe :')

but I requested one last week and it's still pending
most of my approvals were a bit longer, but some of my ARCs were "read now" instead of "request"

ME TOO BUT IT'S GOING TO BE ALRIGHT. HOW MANY ARCS DO YOU HAVE?"
At least 10 but no more than 13
I also have a review copy that I need to finish :')

Eeep yes the pressure
They can come in physical form but they're just books you get after they've been published to review.
I've gotten one physical review copy and two digitals.

*sob*

Buddy read?"
oh you lucky ducks. I think I requested that a while ago, but my feedback percentage was horrible, so that's probably why they denied my request :(


It looks so promising. Reminds me so much of Red, White and Royal Blue. It's been ages since the last time I used NetGalley but I just have to read this.

it's on read now i believe, it sounds really interesting :)

Also, do any of you have tips for what I should write about on my NetGalley profile? Like what publishers might look for if they read it after I request a book.

i would also suggest checking out what the publisher is looking for in a reviewer by going to their page and checking under 'view approval preferences' (i know that some publishers accept all requests, while others only accept booksellers/bloggers)
hope this helps :)

wow, thanks this helps a lot. i've been going through publishers and reading the approval preferences and filling in my profile where it lacks.
