    Honestly I also couldn't keep a book that has an unpleasant smell. I liked the 'book of night', but I can see why people wouldn't finish it. 'Skyward' is on my tbr.
    Arcs can be given away BUT NOT SOLD.
    I didn't really enjoy 'seven days in june', also unhauling it :) I read 'the girl who fell beneath the sea' and 'The society of irregular witched', gave both 1 or 2 stars *gasp*.
    I have such a hard time getting rid of pretty books, but watching unhauls helps me look at the books I own in a more critical way.

    also girl don't feel bad about your book buying habits, I know there's loads of think pieces on the "over consumption" of books but I honestly don't think it compares to actual over consumption or fast fashion. there's this substack piece I really like titled, "no one buys books" which gives insight into book buying with actual numbers from major pub houses. it a cool piece if you want to check it out :")))

  • @AliciaAnnReads
    @AliciaAnnReads 10 дней назад +5

    With ARCs, I think it’s mostly a moral / ethical dilemma. You received a free book in exchange for a review. Regardless of reviewing the book or not, it’s still kind of crappy to turn around and sell it when you received it for free bc a publisher and / or author wanted you to give your opinion on it. There’s no law though if you want to sell it; it’s more just considered rude. But also, like another comment said, ARCs change a lot, so that could be a slightly different book from the final version, and whoever gets that ARC might not know it’s an ARC and might blast the book negatively across social media and review platforms bc they got the raw version. I would hate that for an author. If you’re giving it away, I would literally write inside the front cover that this is an advanced reader copy and the final book sent to print could potentially be different.

    • @AliDoisRead

    omg first time watching you and kinda obsessed hehe❤ also i think you can keep 4 or 5 stars you really loved even if you dont think you'll reread it! it can be hard to get rid of things and i find it's so much easier to just not buy books than to try and get rid of ones you already own (even if you didnt love them). so i find it so good to use the library and then i only buy the book i really love and then i also don't have to get rid off 3 stars bc i dont have them aha. its just a system that works really well for me and means you dont feel any guilt over keeping or getting rid of mediocre fine books and i find you consider what you're buying more. :)

    I think you're being really hard on yourself here 😟 books and reading brings us joy! And sharing that passion with others also brings deep joy. So "just seeing them on my shelf" or "keeping it just for someone else to notice it on my shelf" isn't silly or stupid at all. Maybe im projecting** but i think we may have had a similar experience in childhood of not having a home that felt like OUR HOME so all of these "homey" things feel superfluous. But i promise you its not. You are allowed to have things and keep things just bc they bring you a bit of joy.
    [[ if i was totally just projecting please ignore

    the idea that you aren’t allowed to resell arcs is. not true lmao. i genuinely don’t know where people got the idea that you can’t sell them. now, most reselling stores (like second & charles and stuff like that) won’t take them for about the same reason they won’t take hardcovers without the dust jacket; it’s lowkey an “incomplete” product.
    you CAN sell them directly to someone, and if you have a local bookstore that buys back books they might take it, etc. or you can just donate it.

      I mean they do say not for sale on them. their purpose is for promotion and reviews not for retail and profit so I guess it's like you shouldn't sell something that you were sent for free to review/promote ? and i guess the not for sale is more like for bookshops to not sell their free, bookseller copies rather than individual online reviewers. no ones going to stop you if you really want to haha.

    Me, clapping as you unhaul angelika frankenstein ☠️
    Wait did I miss why you’re unhauling middle of the night?! Did you hear bad things about it?
    Have you watched a good girls guide to murder on Netflix yet? I really need to read the book so I can watch the show!
    Unhauling is hard and you did so good 🥲

      LOL 😂
      I’ve only heard mid things! I just hauled it and comments on it were the same 😟 I forget if you’ve read it??? If you gave it a 4 or 5 I’m fishing it out of the donation box 😂

      @@AliDoisRead no I haven’t read it yet but it’s on my tbr! I haven’t heard much about it so maybe that just means it’s mid?🥲 but I read the only one left earlier this year and had a lot of fun with the creepy gothic vibes. I think I was just shocked by the unhaul of it since it’s so new and it’s a hardcover 😂 but I get it!!
