Go ahead and subscribe to http://netgalley.com/ They have hundreds of ARCs available in exchange for honest reviews. You have to request the more popular authors/titles and get approved, but they have a ton of “read now” books that do not need permission. The more books you review on their site, the more titles you can request. Edelweiss is another site.
http://librarything.com/ is a good source. I get an email every month of authors looking to give away ARCs. I think it’s a lottery system–far more people want them than there are copies–but I’ve gotten a couple. Unfortunately I really didn’t have time to read what I got, so I felt guilty about it. If I get an ARC, I feel like I should be committed to reading it ASAP so that I can review it.
You ask the author direct. Newbies are more likely to send you one. If they put up a book for FREE only one week, chances are in a couple months later they put it up FREE again, to beef up sales/interest. That’s why it pays off to be on their newsletter, to be notified. You can also sign up for sites like NetGalley, InstaFreebie, and GenreCrave which are free.
Also, giveaways through goodreads, or contests on social media or even an author’s website.
What is ARC ?
Advanced reader copy: sent out to be reviewed prior to publication
@Meg oh ok thanks !
@Danielle no problem!
Usually following the author on social media, they will put out a signup, or though contest on goodreads.

http://netgalley.com/ is amazing for arcs in exchange for an honest review on your social platforms ?
I just enter as many Goodreads giveaways as I can. I have won a few so far, but I enter a ton of giveaways at one time.

Bloodhound Books were just looking for reviewers.
I’ll have any arc ready next month. I haven’t set a date yet. If you’re interested (I write YA paranormal romance) pm me.
Where are you from?
Michigan, U.S.
Oh. I’m from Romania.
Nice! I don’t think I’ve met anyone from Romania yet.
My first was an author I reviewed, Cindy Kirk. I’ve had some others from NetGalley.
Also, having a review platform and emailing publishers
I love netgalley
