I'm also facing same issue in most of the books. In addition, what I read in Kindle Paperwhite is not getting synced with Mobile app.

Not all ARCS come with covers. It depends on how the publisher has created the file. About half of my ARCs have the NetGalley default cover instead of the actual one.

Right. I thought when the book was advertised on NetGalley's site with the cover, it would automatically all transfer. Bit disappointing. Thank you for the info.

Not as good as her debut adult cozy fantasy, but a nice entertainer nonetheless.

Billie's Not So Secret Diary (billiesnotsosecretdiary) | 264 comments Song of the Hell Witch by Taylor Hartley Song of the Hell Witch by Taylor Hartley was ok but predictable. I thought it was a standalone, but nope, it's the first of the series. But I don't know if I'll read the next.

Billie's Not So Secret Diary (billiesnotsosecretdiary) | 264 comments I Killed the King by Rebecca Mix, Andrea Hanna I Killed the King by Rebecca Mix was ok, but the six POVs made it an overwhelming task to keep them all straight. Worse was the lack of beasts and magic claimed in the blurb.

Billie's Not So Secret Diary (billiesnotsosecretdiary) | 264 comments What We Can Know by Ian McEwan What We Can Know by Ian McEwan read like an autobiography/biography instead of a science fiction/fantasy it was claimed to be. Blurb very misleading!

Anita Kyne | 2 comments Currently: The Merge by Grace Walker. Dystopian future set in London. It starts a little dry, but is now picking up. The concept is wild & creepy.


Billie's Not So Secret Diary (billiesnotsosecretdiary) | 264 comments How to Defeat a Demon King in Ten Easy Steps by Andrew Rowe How to Defeat a Demon King in Ten Easy Steps by Andrew Rowe was an entertaining read, but it did remind me of a 'walk-through' during the first half.

PattyMacDotComma | 631 comments I am a card-carrying fan of Mick Herron's Slow Horses series, and the latest instalment, Clown Town, is terrific! He's such a good writer. This one has real spies, failed spies, and blackmailing pensioner spies.

The Twelve Days of Christmas Dogs: The Classic Edition by Amanda Sobotka is beautifully illustrated by Chris Dunn. Any dog lover would enjoy browsing through this one, with or without children.

Billie's Not So Secret Diary (billiesnotsosecretdiary) | 264 comments A Match Made in Hell by Charlotte Ingham A Match Made in Hell by Charlotte Ingham started off good, almost cozy, but then they had to add an adult scene... a descriptive one... and this book is listed as Teen/YA.

This negligence cost it a star, and makes it seem as if they want to give fuel to the book-banning fire.

Wandering Souls by Cecile Pin
An OwnVoices historical fiction about a Vietnamese family post the war. Didn't work that well for me, but mine is an outlier opinion.

PattyMacDotComma | 631 comments So far, I've enjoyed everything I've read by Aussie author Michael Robotham. For many years, he was a journalist in London, a place he knows well, where The White Crow is set. I like the premise of the daughter of a gangster being a young detective. Of course, Philomena's always suspected by both sides of leaking information, but Robotham makes it work.

A Terribly Nasty Business (Beatrice Steele, #2) by Julia Seales
A historical cosy mystery. Didn't enjoy it as much as the first book, which had been an Austen parody.

An Irish literary fiction, this has one of the best portrayals of an abusive relationship. Excellent for a debut work.

Billie's Not So Secret Diary (billiesnotsosecretdiary) | 264 comments Spellcaster by Jaymin Eve Spellcaster (Weatherstone College, #1) by Jaymin Eve was a good story. A lot of H.P. vibes, but NOT suitable for readers under 18. I listened to the audio, and while the female was great, the male spoke too softly for the male MC. I had a hard time hearing what he was saying, but was fine with the other male mcs.

Billie's Not So Secret Diary (billiesnotsosecretdiary) | 264 comments For No Mortal Creature by Keshe Chow For No Mortal Creature by Keshe Chow wasn't too bad of a read, but it could use some more depth and descriptions... And the cover is cooler than the story... a little misleading.

The Many Misfortunes of Eugenia Wang by Stan Yan
This middle-grade graphic novel turned out to be a stereotypical mess. Then again, I seem to be the only one who felt this way.
