The higher your level, the less free & paid books to review
Posted: 16 Feb 2024, 00:51
Hi there.
Hope you all are well. I'm curious, why is it that the higher you move up in your reviewer levels the fewer books you get for free to review and the ones you do get are hardly paid reviews. I'm only on level 2 now, but I've noticed that most of the paid review books are now self-purchased, which is not always possible for me to afford. Why is that? I don't want to be a pain or offend anyone, but when I joined OBC it was because it's stated that you get free books to review and you get paid for it. I know it states that some of the paid reviews will be self-purchased but not most. This statement in my opinion is what sell the website and want people to join, especially if they are avid readers like myself. I just want to know if the paid reviews from Level 3 upwards will be only self-purchase books? I really enjoy this so I hope you'll understand where I'm coming from with my question. Lastly, some of self-purchase books you get "free to read" on KU or even free to download, but I can't choose to review these books, as when choosing the book to review you only have the "self-purchase" option to choose from. So now I can't review the book as to click on the 'self-purchase' option when I got it for free, would be in my opinion dishonest. Is there any way to work past this issue?
Hope to get feedback on all of this soon.
Have a blessed day.
