NetGalley must be the Book God's gift to us mere book-worshipping mortals.
I just signed up at the beginning of the month, and I've already been accepted to review several graphic novels. Don't get me wrong, I've been rejected for a bunch, too. But, behold the six beauties I get to feast on before the rest of the lowly book-reading world:

It's kind of ridiculous that I've been (intermittently) book blogging for almost three years, and I've only just jumped on the NetGalley train. What took me so long? I don't even want to imagine all of the ARCs I could have gotten my greedy little hands on.
Are you on NetGalley? What has your experience been like?
NetGalley is an amazing resource...my advise from personal experience it to make sure you don't request more than you can handle. I did as a new blogger because I didn't think so many would get approved.
ReplyDeleteExcellent advice, though it may be too late for me to listen to it. I got a little click-happy. Can you blame me? :)
DeleteNetgalley is very dangerous! But I love it. I need to do better about reading my books that I get from there though. Since I can download them to my Nook app, they don't expire usually. Great haul!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Sunday Post
I've downloaded the titles onto my computer through Adobe Digital Editions, and they all have expiration dates. But I have read that they don't expire as a Kindle download. Thanks for the info about the Nook.
DeleteI'm actually just now closing out my NetGalley account. I'm trying to focus on the ridiculous amount of books I own. I hope you enjoy it! It is a great blogging resource. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie :) I am learning that with great power comes great responsibility.
