35559 NetGalley

Feed Your Readers, the NetGalley Challenge

Duration: Monthly

How to Participate:

The NetGalley Challenge is designed to not only get you to read your NetGalley books, but to also advertise your reviews for others to see because after all, that's what NetGalley is all about.

Though you may pop in/out at any time, the NetGalley Challenge will run on a monthly basis so you are able to see progress being made.


1. At the beginning of the month, post any/all of the following:
a: How many books on your NetGalley shelf
b: What books are on your NG shelf
c: What your Netgalley feedback ratio is

2. During the month, read the NetGalley books that you can AND update your post with your reviews. (You can do this after each book or wait until the end of the month.)

3. At the end of the month, update your post and with:
a: What books you read
b: Link(s) to your review(s)**
c: Your updated shelf count
d: Your updated books to read
e: Your updated ratio

Then start a new post for the next month!


**When linking your reviews, please link only to the book(s) here at GoodReads. At this time, linking to a personal blog is not allowed. Thank you!
35559 Breakdown is up. There are some author notes and such like in my (kindle) edition, so the end of the book isn't at 100%, hence the odd looking %ages!

Feel free to trade your days :)

and sorry for last minute posting!

35559 description

It's the season of love with Valentine's Day just around the corner. But sometimes instead of stopping to smell the roses, you choke on them. Bad romance can ruin lives for a little while and sometimes forever. Sometimes the relationship is even celebrated as a healthy one, even though it's anything but.

Here's a wheel full of toxic relationships or partners. And maybe a special guest for those who've read Dino Island ;)

A new spreadsheet of the monsters and tasks was added to the Master List of Tasks called Bad Romance

Your spreadsheet was shared with you using the email address you signed up with and it is linked in the overall sheet. If you add your books into that, then the overall sheet will automatically update.
