After taking a little break from reviewing over the summer (and most of Autumn, oops) I’ve started requesting books to review on NetGalley again! I tried logging back into my account but it seems to have vanished (can’t remember if I deleted it or if its been deactivated for inactivity). Last week I created a new one and requested a few titles that looked interesting. A couple are very popular books so I’m not hopeful I’ll get accepted for them. I requested seven books, already been rejected for three and have accepted one for review.

It’s a brand new account and I haven’t uploaded any reviews yet.

My NetGalley Shelf

NetGalley Requests – Pending

NetGalley Requests – Rejected

2. Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix (16 Jan 2025)

3. A Language of Dragons by S.F. Williamson (02 Jan 2025)

I’m not surprised I’ve been rejected for these three books. They’re all getting a lot of buzz online at the moment so I’m sure there’s been loads of requests by more active and prolific NetGalley reviewers than me. Just gives me something to work towards in the future!
