NETGALLEY... the word that scared me the most in 2014! I got so many books approved that I got tired and just left them on the e-shelf undisturbed...
But I wanna get my shit right in 2015 and read all those books. If you're with me then join this challenge and keep posting about the book(s) you're or you'll be reading on Netgalley.

My target Netgalley books: 25 (atleast)
I'm gonna read them as per RMFAO 2015 Genre Challenge.

There must be some way to stop me (us!) from requesting more ARCs, right? Right? ;)

Richard (richardv) | 13 comments I'm pretty conservative with my number of requests, because I'm scared of rocking the boat. But with the way you guys are talking, I should just go all out!

I'll push for at least 15 Netgalley reads this year! I'm reading my first right now!

Heheheh! We literally go all out! lol!
I hate missing out on good books, that's why I never hesitate in requesting...
Anyways, 15 books from Netgalley is a good enough challenge :) All the best :)

Thanks Mark... I'll request it then :)
But I'll have to check first, as the cover looks familiar so I might already have it approved and downloaded... Thanks for the rec. :)
