I have no idea where my 'missing book' went.
I've just come back to this thread after self banning, because I was tempted too much, and I've already requested three books.

I am sure you will enjoy it :)

Do you know how to log into your Amazon account and check what they are?
Sharon wrote: "Accidentally Working Class by Karly Lane
Is up for request"
I must have missed this when Sharon initially posted it was up, so requested back on the 4th…..
I really want to read it but still waiting patiently to see if granted or not 😔
I was hoping that it would be quick because it seems self published/different publisher than her usual books?
I’m hanging out for Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club #3, “The Bullet that Missed” to land in NetGalley… Approved for the first two, so fingers crossed for this one! (apologies for lack of links - on phone at daughter’s dentist appointment.

That one is a rename of Echoes of War which I discovered when I saw it. So if you've already read it (as I have) don't download :)

Oooh... that's so annoying!! I didn't even see that... granted, I was in a rush to go out when I saw that last minute :(:(:(
It sure is..especially when they don't display prominently that it's a rename. I put that on the GR book's profile!

Thanks, Patty. Bizarrely, when I search under Osman it's not there for me. Sarah, I have had a few wishes granted, so it's worth trying.
Invitations to read and review with a widget, I've had three this week from the same publisher, does it mean I'm doing something right with my reviews, or are they just desperate to get the book reviewed?I've taken them up on two that look like my sort of read and pub date not tomorrow, LOL
For fans of Elly Griffiths I've just noticed the next in her Harbinder Kaur series is available for request.

[book:Bleeding..."Oops I misread the blurb! Will edit my post so as not to confuse anyone (apart from myself). I was thinking her new Ruth Galloway must be out soon. Still want this, maybe even more!
Available for request from Harlequin Daughter of the Home Front Jennie Jones
Jillaroo from Jacaranda by Mandy Magro is available as well but is not on Goodreads :)
Dead Man's Creek: The blistering new thriller from the Australian crime master (titled The Tilt in Australia) by Chris Hammer is available for request via NetGalley UK. My request was declined, probably because I'm not in the UK, but worth a try.https://www.netgalley.co.uk/catalog/b...

I've thrown my hat in, but if you haven't been granted a copy, I doubt I will be, so also placed a hold at the library - I am #67 in the queue!!!
Really pleased to be approved for Mad Honey by Jodi Picoult through NetGalley UKhttps://www.netgalley.co.uk/catalog/b...
