Just a few weeks ago I didn’t even know such practice existed. Although I always wondered how come that unreleased books already have ratings. Now I know how it works.

To say that I’m excited is an understatement.

It is, indeed, a full-blown real time travel! The books are not yet out there! They don’t even have covers when I receive them! And yet I am already able to read them along with just a few other lucky ones from around the globe.

Isn’t it mind-blowing?

These copies are free which is particularly convenient taking into account that this time travelling seems to be giving me time-controlling super powers. It takes me just a few hours to devour an ARC. It would have been quite pricey otherwise at such a speed of consumption.

I’ve been even more picky than ever choosing books from available copies. It means a cosmic scale of pickiness because I’m already a very picky reader even with usual books. It’s a whole different challenge to criticise something when your feedback is one of very few, it is being awaited and watched, and you do it about something you got for free. It is like coming to someone’s home, eating a dinner they cooked for you and then having to tell them you didn’t enjoy it.

I’ve managed to escape this situation so far. I’ve been extremely lucky with books and read only good ones. The review of the first one is already on my blog.

Off to treasure hunt for more! Stay tuned for more reviews of new releases!
