I've found that I'm rarely asking for books but yet they are always making their way into the house. Is there a back door I don't know about it? Thanks for linking over to my review policy.

Despite the fact that sometimes you can get duds when it comes to ARCs, I'm still in love with the idea of getting "free" books. Though I do agree with bloggers who say that they're not really free, since you have to commit to reading and reviewing the book. But still... I still love it! I don't subscribe to any of the newsletters that you mentioned, but I think I'm going to now. :) Great post! Hey, thanks for highlighting my review policy!

You know I have probably a 90% success rate when I send a simple request to review a book to the publisher. And some of the publicity stuff I have got is fantastic. It is so fun to do this.. get the book.. then post the review. Good times. . . Great info. Great Post.

When I first started blogging I wondered how to get those awesome free books. Now I'm totally overwhelmed, and I've had to stop taking review copies. It is pretty cool to score free books, though.

I've found the best way to get ARCs is just to keep blogging - soon enough the publishers/authors start trying to throw them at you, and you get buried under the requests. It is how to get the ARCs you really want which is important, and so method 5 is probably the way to go! Great post!
