For fans of Robert Dugoni's Tracy Crosswhite series, his new book A Dead Draw is Read Now on Netgalley.
I was very happy to get Murder at Gulls Nest by Jess Kidd. She is one of my most favourite authors and this is a change for her to be writing a cosy mystery.

Yes, and they are getting less and less. I was auto approved by Hachette AU but now it's AU & NZ so no longer auto approved :(

Hi all, I just joined netgalley. I wasn't sure how it would go, but I've already been approved for 3 books! I better get reading asap because my % looks terrible.I have:
Landfall by James Bradley
The Reunion by Bronwyn Rivers
I'll Come to You by Rebecca Kauffman
I'm having a technical issue with one of the books (The Reunion) - the PDF looks right on Adobe Dig Ed, but when I put it on my Kobo, there is only 1 page of text and the rest is blank. Also I can't seem to get it to convert to epub instead of pdf. Does anyone have any tips?
Welcome to the Negalley journey Meg. It can be quite addictive!Tip for new players (and I'm sure you are across this), don't request too much at once as you try and get your percentage up. Also check 'read now' books as if you can read and review them they will help with your percentage also.
I can't help with your technical issue as I'm a kindle reader, but good luck.
Available for request on Netgalley Jackie French's The Whisperer's War

I don't use a kobo either, but you could try contacting Netgalley, reading it on the kindle app on your phone, computer or tablet or as a last resort try reading it on the Netgalley app.
Has anyone been approved for
Natasha Lester and my request with Hachette Australia and New Zealand on NetGalley has been pending for over a month and I'm hoping it's a delay due to staff being on holidays?

Helen wrote: "Karren wrote: "Has anyone been approved for

I was approved for The Mademoiselle Alliance this morning so maybe you two will be approved soon :)I was also declined for the Ali Lowe book, Helen.

I don't like my chances Janelle and it's down right odd how they process requests.

Yes, I did today :)

I was just approved for The Mademoiselle Alliance today also. I keep requesting and now have 7 for March...which is probably too many for me. I need to stop requesting for a while, but so many good books coming out!
Brenda wrote: "Karren wrote: "Has anyone been approved for
