Thank you to Bibi for tagging me in this one! I love Netgalley and I’ve seen this one floating around but haven’t done it yet. Thanks for the push to do it. 🙂
★ RULES
- Link back to the tag’s creator: Kourtni at Kourtni Reads
- Thank and link back to the person who tagged you.
- Answer the questions the best you can. If you don’t use NetGalley, you can substitute other sites or places where you get books!
- Tag a few people to do this too!
★ AUTO-APPROVED: WHO’S ONE AUTHOR WHOSE BOOKS YOU AUTOMATICALLY WANT TO READ, REGARDLESS OF WHAT THEY ARE ABOUT?
I wish somebody would auto-approve me!! But here are six authors that I always want more from.
- Krista & Becca Ritchie
- R.S. Grey
- Rainbow Rowell
- Jenn Bennett
- Becky Albertalli
- V.E. Schwab
★ REQUEST: WHAT MAKES YOU WANT TO REQUEST A BOOK ON NETGALLEY?
I used to request just about everything that looked remotely interesting, but that’s gotten to be a problem over the years. Now I only request books that I’d actually buy for myself.
★ FEEDBACK RATIO: DO YOU REVIEW EVERY BOOK YOU READ? IF NOT, HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHAT BOOKS TO REVIEW?
I do! I have a couple books I still have to read and review, but I make a point to review every book that I read.
★ BADGES: IF YOU COULD CREATE ONE BADGE TO DISPLAY ON YOUR BLOG, WHAT WOULD IT BE FOR?
I’m going to steal from Bibi, who stole from Amy: “I’d like a badge to show my most reviewed genre so publishers can see what genres I like to read the most.”
★ WISH FOR IT: WHAT’S ONE BOOK THAT YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY DYING TO READ?
Just one? No. Here are many.
- What If It’s Us by Becky Albertalli & Adam Silvera
- The Witch Elm by Tana French
- Vengeful by V.E. Schwab
- Serious Moonlight by Jenn Bennett
- An Assassin’s Guide to Love and Treason by Virginia Boecker
- Archenemies by Marissa Meyer
- Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell
★ 2018 NETGALLEY CHALLENGE: WHAT WAS THE LAST BOOK THAT YOU RECEIVED AS AN ARC THAT YOU REVIEWED? IF YOU’VE NEVER RECEIVED AN ARC, WHAT’S THE LAST BOOK YOU REVIEWED?
The last ARC that I reviewed was Darius the Great is Not Okay by Adib Khorram.
I’m tagging: Hamad ★ Daniel ★ Catherine ★ Leslie ★ Brittany
As always, no pressure. Feel free to ignore me or feel free to tag yourself. ❤
YES THE WITCH ELM AHH and thanks for the tag, as always!!!

Oh thank you! My ratio was HORRIBLE when I first started because I just downloaded everything. It took forever to fix it! Now I try to make sure to read and review everything right away so that never happens again!

That’s awesome you were able to do that! I’m hoping to do the same eventually even though I know it might take me a little while. I just wish I had an ereader because it’s such a pain to read them on my laptop!

I can’t imagine reading them on my laptop! An ereader definitely makes it easier. But you’ll get there eventually and it’s so worth it once you see your ratio start to move toward a more acceptable number. 🙂

I´m totally with you on the Feedback Ratio point. ❤

I’m glad you agree! ❤ I figure that Netgalley exists to provide books for review, so I shouldn't request them if I'm not planning to review them. 🙂

That´s exactly it! I don´t go on there just to collect books. The point is to read & review. No further info needed. Lol. ❤

That 98% feedback ratio though 😮 I am in awe. I usually hover around the 82% mark… probably because I was overly enthusiastic about requesting books when I first joined. I’ve learned from that.

Haha, thank you. 🙂 I was definitely overenthusiastic about requesting books when I first joined! I had to dedicate a long time to getting caught up, but I did it eventually!

Yes, Wayward Son! I know absolutely nothing about it either other than the fact that I’m definitely reading it!
