I'm used to being rejected by John Murray Press for Mick Herron's Slough House books, so imagine my surprise and delight to be granted a NetGalley wish for Clown Town. Very soon on my TBR...
That's great Marianne! I was granted a wish a couple of weeks ago too - it's a lovely surprise, completely unexpected!

When you are offered a pre-approval from NetGalley in a nice email from the publisher or publicist, do you always reply if you decide to decline the offer?
