You got me curious :)

Well, if you can't read it, I guess just click on 'review' on NG and leave the publisher a note. I think there's a dialog box at the bo..."


I emailed NetGalley and received a reply just a little while ago. They have had many requests to have the format shown BEFORE you request it, so she's adding my suggestion to the mix! But she also said the publisher hasn't allowed kindle download for one reason or another. I also emailed the publisher for a hard copy so whether I get that or not is another story :) We will see...

Sorry Tien, I don't remember. Just that it worked, although I couldn't change font size so it was a bit clunky. Generally I prefer to read books in pdf format on my iPad.

marlin1 | 422 comments New book Darkness for Light by Emma Viskic is currently up for review on Netgalley UK for anyone interested.
Not sure if being published here in Dec 2019 (Netgalley) or June 2020 (Goodreads)


message 2125: by Tien (new)

Tien (tiensblurb) | 631 comments I think GR pub date usually reflects US ones? NG would probably reflect what publishers put up there so if it's available from Aussie pub, it'll be the Aussie pub date :)

I have been knocked back for that one :(

marlin1 | 422 comments Sorry to hear that Brenda. I’ve never had a problem with that publisher, wonder if they have that one geo restricted for some reason.
I haven’t requested it myself, sitting on the fence because I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed with all the books I WANT to read, let alone the ones I’ve requested.

I'm not too worried Marlin - like you I have many more than I can read in my time frames!
