Me jumping kicking and screaming at work!
Requested on a whim thinking there was no way I’d get it-I’m not an influencer and haven’t reviewed a ton of books (but trying to get my count up there with read nows 😍)
I absolutely can't believe it! I was so dumbfounded 🥹 (My ratio had gone down and I was wondering where it came from lol)
Was randomly going through my e-mail and just saw I got a widget for Nicholas Binge's new novel! I absolutely loved his first two, especially Dissolution, so this made me super happy! Highly recommend checking out this author and his books if you haven't already. He is super underrated unfortunately
Hi, I’m a debut author with an independent press and do my own NetGalley with the help of a coop. I have been grateful to get many helpful and detailed reviews there which was also cross posted on Goodreads.
However, one reviewer, with a brand new account, that I unfortunately approved, requested my book along with five others ARCs and posted reviews in the same day (8 hours later). Her rating was two points lower than my average and the review made her sound illiterate.
I flagged the review and NetGalley must have agreed with me. It’s still on Goodreads. Should I ask Goodreads to take it down?
I understand this will happen again after the book is released, but I feel that this shouldn’t be allowed for ARCs.
I also heard that having a bad rating and weird review sells books. However, I still feel it should be an honest review, not a fake review.
What do you all think?
Freaked out when I saw the cover then freaked out even more when I saw the read now button. Love this series!
(Author is Emily St. John Mandel)
I am so stoked!!!
Last week I got a widget to the Tarot Trials, great! Tonight someone at Tor must have gone through a backlog and approved three of my pending requests 😅
Goodbye social life 👋 Goodbye manageable TBR 👋 Goodbye finishing Crescent City before next ACOTAR book comes out 👋
I’m so screwed but I also realize I won the lottery today so I am most certainly not complaining 😂

I am so happy about this! It doesn’t happen often but it this for this one and I cannot wait to get to it 🤩
I got the audiobook of one of the books I desperately wanted, and my ebook request is still pending. I was going to withdraw the ebook request, but the audiobook narrator is just unbearable. I've made it through 20% of the book, and I can't go on because the narration is ruining the book for me and giving me a headache. Is there a way to contact the publisher and ask them for the ebook instead, since I still want to review the book?
Not sure if this happens all at once or gets rolled out - but check your NetGalley dashboard if you participated this year!
I actually can’t believe I got this approval with my ratio! I’m soooo excited to read this!!
This just made my entire week 🤩
I got this email yesterday and couldn’t believe it. I’m so excited. I was able to grab a book right away.
