I have banned myself from getting any more Netgalley books until I read the 30 I have - unless The Wives lands on my Kindle doorstep :)

Michele wrote: "https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/boo... also in Read Now."For me it's "Wish For It"

I see it went from Read Now to Available for Request....I think sometimes when things first go in you can snag them as Read Now if you catch them right away before they get a chance to reclassify it. It's strange that yours says "Wish for it" though...
I may absolutely die waiting the December 30 release of The Wives. That's so far off. And so many people have read it and say how much they love it. That makes me even MORE itchy to get it. And do you know how long that gives me to hunt on the Interwebs for spoilers and ruin it for myself?

Regarding Postscript - I ended up with that funky protected doc thingy too...ugh. I hate those. I didn't see it initially or I would have probably passed on it....
Jean wrote: "SQUEEEINGG!!!!!!! JUST GOT APPROVED FOR THE WIVES!!!!!"You lucky lucky thing. I want to read that book, so bad. 😫

"I did too Jean!

"I've looked at that one a few times and I'm trying to resist...I have soooo much to read in August. But I think I may cave.

"Thanks girls, how do you find these books? Maybe different books come up because I’m in Australia. I have requested both of those.
Jean wrote: "Ahhhh thank you Melinda!!! That one is a Read Now for me and it sounds good!!!!"That's a Read Now for me too. It does sound super good but it's also going to be KU so I'm waiting on it since my NetGalley is currently on overload for August. I did get Date Night though...couldn't help myself.
I don't even really understand what Net Galley is?!? I'm just curious, I won't use it as I don't like to write reviews. Robin, will this help get your book more publicity??

That's the hope. Most authors use it for ARC delivery prior to release, but you can also use it to find a bigger audience. And since it's read now, readers don't have to be approved.
Robin, aaahh...makes sense since the Netgalley readers will be writing reviews that you get more exposure. Plus, since its free for them, maybe you will get new readers that might not otherwise pay for it? Anyway, I hope it helps. 😀

is READ NOW on NetGalley! http://netgal.ly/qelN7q"That's awesome Robin!"
Thank you for the review Ela! That other one I have is just a copy of my blurb! I wonder if users do that to make it look like they read/review a lot of books?





Go get em Ela! Their bio says "at this time they are only appro..."
You never know...I'm just paranoid.
