ARC Swap/Giveaway

I have a copy of American Dirt, if you’d like to trade for What’s Left of Me is Yours :slight_smile:

If you sign up for Shelf Awareness emails (both the reader and professional one), they host a lot of giveaways! I haven’t won a ton, but a few books have mysteriously shown up on my doorstep that I forgot I entered :slight_smile:

I’d love to read this one. Are you looking for anything in particular (:crossed_fingers:t2:)?

What sorts of genres do they usually host giveaways for?

Oh they have everything! They link to the publishers who are hosting the giveaway (a lot of the Big 5s). They all have different requirements, so for some of the ones in the “professional” setting, you have to be an actual bookseller, but a lot are open to bloggers even readers as well. I’ve gotten non-fiction, historical fiction and contemporary fiction, but I’ve seen books in every genre—picture books through adult, so there’s something for everyone :slight_smile:

I can look at what you have, but I would definitely trade for anything on my WL: Tunnel of Bones (Schwab), Supernova (Kass Morgan), The Silvered Serpents (Chokshi), My Calamity Jane (Lady Janies), Crescent City (Maas), The Damned (Ahdieh), Chain of Gold (Clare), House of Dragons (Cluess).

I am almost done with this book. Will be up for trade if anyone wants it

On Twitter and Instagram, search #bookgiveaway #freebook #ARC and other similar tags.

Find the social media pages (twitter, instagram, facebook) for any authors or publishers you like. Don’t be scared to message them asking for tips on getting ARCs :slight_smile:

Review the books you’ve already read (goodreads, twitter, insta, tumblr) and maybe even make a blog to post your review links, so when authors/publishers look at your web presence, they’ll see it’s worth it to send you an ARC because you’ll spread the word.

Here are some print giveaway links:

I am dying to read You Are Not Alone. Did you like it?

It was pretty good. I was not a fan of the end but it was a thrilling read.

I’ve found that about a lot of endings recently…

If anyone gets a copy of Diane Zinna’s The All-Night Sun that they’re finished with, I would love to trade for it! I tried all the tricks on Goodreads, but did not win :joy:

I have the following titles to trade:
Break Me Like a Promise by Tiffany Schmidt
The Dependents by Katharine Dion
When You Read This by Mary Adkins

Update: Break Me Like a Promise has been claimed!

Wow! I only seem to get digital ARC (DRC) so no physical book to swap. I wish I were fortunate enough to get print copies.
