NetGalley Books ... Just Had Approved
Approved for Dead Souls. :)) Bookouture is the best. I'm slow at reading much of the time and they still approve me. And fast. I wrote them to thank them for their approval of Robert Bryndza's new one, because I was so darn happy, and she wrote back right away thanking me that I made her day. So nice that this is even a thing for the masses. Free books for lovers and kudos for the authors.
I love Bookouture too Amy. They have the best books and always seem to approve! I also was approved for
Dead Souls by Angela Marsons. Looks like a few of us will be reading it :)

I've got a copy of it, too! I'm lucky enough to be auto approved by them, so glad as they have such great authors and books!

Janet wrote: "Looks very twisted, Adrian. The email from Netgalley sold it to me and Sue's review! Hope you get approval. :)"Declined for this one unfortunately. A short two line email to say the maximum number of downloads had already been reached set by the publisher. Which begs the question, while is still available for request?
Anyway that's my 7th decline in total. Took the first few personally but don't dwell on them anymore. Shame though as it sounded interesting.

Glad to know I'm not alone Jan. I'm doing my best to take declines as part of the gig but I seem to have a unfounded need to keep the number as low as possible for some reason.

I was actually happy to get this response then the other one everyone else sends as this makes it feel less a rejection and just a numbers thing lol
I think I might have really screwed up. When I'm done with the GR reviews I post it to NG. But I haven't been smart enough to show the link at the bottom does that make sense? Is there any way to go back and add the link? I've tried to go back and add but I'm really showing I'm not the brightest color in this box of crayons.

You can go to Your Shelf, click on Feedback sent, then view feedback. Click edit in the review portion and you should be able to then send the link. Hope this helps!

I had to go back and do the same thing.

, due out in July of this year.One of my favourite authors, so looking forward to this :~)
Received this today after a direct message from the author
Approved for Be My Killer by Richard Parker. Doesn't seem to be up on here yet so can't link it.
It's from Bookouture who seem to be giving me nearly instant approval every time now. Love them as a publisher.
