This week's question is: Do you use NetGalley, Edelweiss, both, or neither? (submitted by Elizabeth @ Silver's Reviews)
MY ANSWER: Yes, I do! I use Netgalley and Edelweiss both. I tend to get better luck on Netgalley. I don't get why Edelweiss doesn't like me yet the same publisher might like me on Netgalley. This is my primary way of receiving ARCs so I am happy for both of them!
I use Netgalley, too and it's my primary way to get ARC, too. Never tried the other one but it seems too difficult to get approved.
ReplyDeleteI really struggle to get approved on Edelweiss too. I far prefer NetGalley.

I find that to be true for me too. it seems like it is easier to be approved for books on NetGalley.
ReplyDeleteEdelweiss seems to be a tough platform to get approved on.
ReplyDeleteI, too, use both platforms. For me, the key to getting approved on Edelweiss+ is providing a strong reason for wanting to read and review the selected title. This is quite opposite for NetGalley, where some publishers seek out stats, quality of previous reviews, and feedback ratios.
