Read a lot of books from a particular publisher. It's at the publisher's discretion. Some smaller publishers will auto-approve you after one book.

Done.
What do you plan on reading for October?

Jim Butcher, James Rollins, Matthew Reilly, Stephen King, Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, Raymond Feist, JK Rowling, Michael Crichton. I know there are lots more but that's off the top of my head.
Luckily I've read a lot of NG books. I'm still at 78%.

Yes, I read more than just Graphic novels. Under Pressure ★★★★★
Dr. Lucas Page is an astrophysicist, mathematician, and former FBI agent who is called back into the FBI when his assistance is needed in a mass bombing in Manhattan. Really good!
Wild Thing Or: My Life as a Wolf ★Poor art, poor story. A farm dog's story about how he ran off with wolves.
The Old Geezers: Volume 1 ★★★★★
What a delight! Three septuagenarian friends grow old in their own way, raising their own version of hell.
Vampire State Building ★★
Die Hard + Towering Inferno + Vampires. Unfortunately, the book is never as good as that premise sounds.

Ark Angel: An Alex Rider Graphic Novel ★★★An adaptation of one of the James Bond, Jr., I mean Alex Rider books.
Undead Messiah ★★Some manga that was never as good as it should have been.
Resident Alien Omnibus Volume 1 ★★★★★
Murder She Wrote with an alien. I love this series. It's coming out as a TV series on SyFy.
