The Business of ARCS- How I get my Books by She Just Loves Books

I’m always curious how other book reviewers get their books. There is certainly a lot of different methods for acquiring books, however the biggest one I’ve heard of is Netgallery.

Opportunities, Blog Design & More With Belle || Blogletters Interview

I thought this was another really interesting interview! I thought they had a lot of great insights to share and I really enjoyed reading it.

I also agree that book blogging takes a longer time compared to bookstagram in some cases but I think editing videos is time consuming as well.
