    What a great way to reassure smaller booktubers about starting on Netgalley! It took me months to finally feel like I could make a profile

    This was such a great video! I am an indie author and came across your video because I am trying to decide whether to sign up for it on the other end. It's such a wonderful feeling to think that readers on the other side would be excited about receiving an ARC to review :) Thanks for the motivation to dig deeper :)

    You made this video with perfect timing!! A book I'm really looking forward to just came available on Netgalley 🥰 (it's Tasha Suri's The Oleander Sword) it'll be my first request and I needed some help orienting myself on there lol. Thank you!!

      You definitely should! It's cool to have early access!!

  • @mamaneedstoreadromance

    This was super helpful! I requested a book over the summer, and today, at the end of November, I just got approved, and I had totally forgot all about NetGalley, ha ha! I was scrambling, and thank goodness I found your video!!

  • @ChattieTheMadChatter
    @ChattieTheMadChatter Před 2 lety

    Had this on my "must eatch this" video list in my brain 😆 This was brilliant! Truly excellent video, so clear about what to do, screen shots added in really helped too. You are inspiring so many booktubers! I am definitely considering it, but I am not an e-reader, or audio book reader. So something I might need to look into! Hope you keep enjoying your early access 💜📚

    Hey there!
    I saw your video posted on MJ’s Discord page. How was not subscribed to you? 😬 My apologies! I’ve taken care of that. I appreciate this video, it was something I never knew about. I enjoyed learning something new.

    Thanks for this video! I went to your GoodReads account and don't see the Arc list to find your reviews. Do you mind providing a link to some of the reviews? Thanks!

  • @BookishChas
    @BookishChas Před 2 lety

    Thank you for this! I’ve wondered about this process, but it doesn’t sound like Netgalley will be for me. I have a Goodreads, but I don’t do written reviews. I exclusively review on my channel lol.

    • @LiterallyLo
      @LiterallyLo  Před 2 lety +2

      I don’t think I was very clear, what I was saying is that if you don’t have a platform such as a blog or a booktube channel, a goodreads account is probably enough. I definitely think you could get some ARCs (if you want them!)

    this is so helpful! I just got my first couple ARCS and I cannot tell you how excited i was when i got the email 😂 Do you ever put your youtube review link at the bottom of the net galley review? Also rando question that I could probably look up lol: how soon before the release date do you write your review? Or do you just review whenever you finish the book no matter the release date? Great video!

    • @latashahaynesreads
      @latashahaynesreads Před 2 lety +1

      I link my videos to the reviews once I make the video. I just go in and edit the review and add it to the social media link thing. Also, I personally just review once I finish the book no matter what the release date is. I just do it before the release date.

      I think I meant to the first time and never did for any of mine😬 but I always say “I’ll review this book on my booktube channel in early May” or whatever. I always review them in a fair amount of depth on goodreads too so I feel like it’s ok🤷‍♀️

    • @LiterallyLo
      @LiterallyLo  Před 2 lety

      I just try to get it in before honestly. Sometimes I’ve done it a week or two before and sometimes I’ve done it on the release date. Like I said in my video, I also got Black Cake after the release so I just read it as soon as I could. I dont think there are strict rules!

  • @WillGraham-uv1ol
    @WillGraham-uv1ol Před 5 měsíci

    Hi can you explain to me if a "proper review" is a DNF as well ? Stating why you couldnt finish the book because of X reasons
    I want to join but im a very critical reader so I DNF frequently but i dont want it to ruin my rep on the website either ;(
