  1. I couldn't stand Edelweiss the few times I was forced to use it. The sight made little sense to me. Glad it works for you.

    1. Indeed, it's challenging to browse the website. Most of my requests are turned down for unexplained reasons. After that, the majority of the ones for which I do receive approval don't have review copies accessible for downloading, leaving me perplexed as to how I'm expected to review anything without having access to it.

  4. I use Edelweiss, BookSirens and Booksprout. I am not sure where else to get them. Maybe because I am too lazy to research it!🤣

    Have a super weekend Billy 😉

  5. Edelweiss is very hard to use, so I haven't used it much.

    1. I also get some print copies from publishers or book tours, and I use BookSirens a bit. But Netgalley is what I use the most.

  9. I don't do ARCs, but I snooped around on both Netgalley and Edelweis and honestly i found it way too complicated.
