I decided to grab this (because I don't have enough NetGalley books hanging over my head with deadlines flying by, yet ;) ) but I know my local library has #1 and #2

At least I have read #1 and liked it :)

Carolyn | 9836 comments I've got #2 to read as well, but have been meaning to anyway since I enjoyed #1.


message 2115: by Bec (new)

Bec | 171 comments I was like, nope, not requesting the third book in a series I haven't started.....then I looked and realised the author was born in Adelaide (where I live) and though, hmmm let me see. The library has both books 1 and 2 available now on audio and this one isn't published until 30 January - so I think I can do it!

Yes you can! And you’ll be glad you did. The audiobooks are great, and fairly short, too.

Yes, Bec, that was my reasoning too, LOL

I said the same when I requested Chris Hammer's third book The Seven and hadn't read #1&2 and then ended up having to read them all this month. Totally worth it though!

Just borrowed the first book from libby to listen to - will start on my walk tomorrow! I was in between audio books so perfect timing!

Like the rest of you, no, I don't really have a reading gap, but... I finally located the first two books in one of my libraries so I've requested this one. I must stop following this thread!

Since A&U have been back on Netgalley I've requested a few titles, but they take so long to decide. I've withdrawn my requests a few times, as I don't want to be ambushed at the last minute.

So excited - read the first two in this series - loved them

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9974 comments Fans of Catherine Ryan Hyde might like to grab Life, Loss, and Puffins, READ NOW, publish 14 May 24


message 2132: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa Winnem | 6 comments I received my first book from Netgalley today. I'm new to writing reviews so not sure how I will go. I've recently gone off most social media and loving that I'm reading daily again. I'm reading a lot so why not offer others my opinion? They can take it or leave it.
Does anyone have any advice on expanding my followers now? After being hacked I've had to start a new account from fresh, not that I had a lot of followers before but I'm more invested now.

Thakns Marianne, I do like Catherine Ryan Hyde. I still have to read A Different Kind of Gone as it keeps getting pushed back for books publishing earlier - it's soon now though so it's nearly at the top of my list!

Oh no - did they say why?


message 2142: by Marianne (new)

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9974 comments No, I missed the stand-alone and this one. Raven publishing didn't give anything beyond the generic "declined to allow access to the title at this time. Please take a look at our Profile Suggestions to have a better chance of approval in the future! " I'm at 92% so that can't be it:(


message 2143: by Andrea (new)

Andrea | 2163 comments I’m not sure if anyone else is reading Peter Boland’s Charity Shop Detectives series, but #3 is Read Now. It’s called DEATH AT THE DOG SHOW

Damo | 560 comments Wow, saw that Body of Lies by Sarah Bailey Body of Lies by Sarah Bailey came up for request today. Applied and was approved within 10 minutes. An amazing turnaround from Allen & Unwin given it took them around 8 weeks to approve me for Kill Your Husbands by Jack Heath
