NetGalley - Requests and Read Now Advice


Thanks, Marianne. I've been on the waiting list at NetGalley, but I see the UK has it as well, so I've requested it again. She's great!

Thanks Marianne. I'd better read #2 soon!

Same here. although I haven't been approved for this one yet...

I was approved overnight, Marianne, so I doubt you'll have any problems...



I've previously enjoyed some books she co-wrote with Greer Hendricks, although I'm not sure I've read one with her as a solo author.

Still not approved, so maybe not....

This one was already published in November 2022 - thought it looked familiar...

I'm guessing this is the American publication now. I do hope he's planning another Hirsch novel soon!

Finally approved for this, so now I'd better hop to and read The Tilt

Lovely! Thanks Brenda :)
Will go and request it although Poisoned Pen is a bit hit and miss for me!

Have tried - fingers crossed!

And one more!! Very pleased to be approved for this one, although my reading has taken a big hit the last few days as we've been moving. Tuesday we moved heaps of stuff into our temporary accom, a small AirBnB unit in Crown street Wollongong opposite a construction site. Yesterday Grace came to pack all the breakables, and the they loaded all the bikish stuff DH wanted taken to our warehouse, and delivered that there. Today they packed the rest of the house to go into storage until our unit is ready. Exhausted every night. But the BnB is right near the W'gong branch of our fave Japanese restaurant, Toro Sushiya. Once we are properly settled into the BnB there will be no packing or sorting to do so I intend to read and relax.
I might start this one well before March too...

Good luck with that Bec!

Was it read now? Or did I just get approved extra quickly? Seemed as soon as I requested I was given it and now I'm confused.
I also accidently clicked 'listen now' on an audiobook I don't really want to listen to. I wanted to listen to the sample but pressed the wrong button. Can this be undone? Or do I now need to listen to it?

It wasn't read now for me, but I was approved really quickly too.
I think with your listen now, you could just use the "I will not be reviewing this title" option and say you only intended to sample...


Ohh thanks. wil..."
Thanks. yep I think I just got approved ultra quick. That's never happened before.
I think I'll give the book a listen and see what I think before saying I won't review...you never know, sometimes the accidents are for a reason :)
It's just I have an audible trial at the moment so trying to make the most of that by listening to audible plus titles!
