Follow Friday (42)


Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read



This week's question:

What have you learned from book blogging that you didn't know before about the publishing industry?

Everything!
For one, I didn't know that publishers sent out advanced copies of books for review so far in advance. And I definitely didn't know they sent out copies to people like us, regular, everyday people who just like to talk about books online. That's crazy, right? I thought review books went out to serious and highly respected book reviewers and publications only!

Every day I feel so lucky to be a part of the book blogging community!

  3. I did not know about ARCs. I remember when I was starting to blog again this past May, I was wondering what ARC stood for, as everyone else was saying it a lot lol

  7. I knew publishers sent out review copies to libraries and book reviewers journals, but had no idea that they sent them out to bloggers either. It is awesome!
