I haven't gotten anything for a bit! I'll have to get some books reviewed


❀ Crystal ✿ -  PEACE ☮ LOVE ♥ BOOKS  (crystaldc18) | 4664 comments I'm trying so hard to get my rating up on NG. Have books I'm going through from 2016.
Is it taboo to ask what everyone's rating is? Just curious since we all get so many different things denied and approved lol. I'm up from 30 something to 59% finally.

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments So I've only got a few right now and I don't do the netgalley stuff like you do but here's what I have:

Can do whenever:
Angle of Attack (Alex Morgan Thriller #1) by Leo J. Maloney Of Magpies and Men by Ode Ray After the Rain by Nnedi Okorafor

Can do once my giveaways arrive:
The Princess Spy The True Story of World War II Spy Aline Griffith, Countess of Romanones by Larry Loftis Let's Get Back to the Party by Zak Salih Lola on Fire by Rio Youers

Can do in February:
Margreete's Harbor by Eleanor Morse The Babysitter My Summers with a Serial Killer by Liza Rodman

So if you're trying to get rid of any of these for your netgalley stuff let me know and we can BR.


❀ Crystal ✿ -  PEACE ☮ LOVE ♥ BOOKS  (crystaldc18) | 4664 comments Just got Cormorant Run by J.C. McKenzie

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments So I know you guys are attached to netgalley but I wanted to let you know I was invited to join another review site called BookSirens that offers ARCs and newer releases. From what I've seen the policies are more relaxed than netgalley in terms of review requirements, and you can customize down to sub-subgenres. It's less well known but it's definitely another option if you're looking for arcs.

Ruthie mentioned BookSirens too, so I'll have to give it a try!

Yes! I'm on this website. Please let me know if you get anything from there so we can buddy read it. I got Stranded (The Shorten Chronicles, #1) by Rosalind Tate recently from BookSirens and I have to read it by mid or end of March if anyone wants to buddy read that

I can't find it on the website. It won't let me search titles

bummer. I know they cap the amount of people for each ARC so maybe that's why you can't see it. The genre is time travel I believe.

Well, lmk on the other thread if you request any from BookSirens and I'll request them too


message 1688: by Celia (new)

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments Is it true that you can only request one book at a time until you review it? That's how I interpreted it but I could be wrong.

Oh I'm not sure honestly! I mostly request on NetGalley so that's my first BookSirens. I haven't tried to request any others
