It’s time to take a look at where I am up to with my NetGalley ARCs and share the progress (if any) I have made since last month’s check-in. And I’ll be honest there hasn’t been much progress at all this past month. I haven’t read or reviewed any of the books that are on my NetGalley shelf – so this will be a very quick post.
Read and reviewed:
Zip, zero, zilch. I have been focused on reading 2024 backlist books and haven’t picked up any of my ARCs. Thankfully I have time; with one book being due in June and the other two not being due until October.
What’s on my shelf?
Everything’s Coming Up Rosie by Courtney Walsh – Expected publication: 10th June 2025 – I am looking forward to reading this novel, having previously read and enjoyed The Summer of Yes and The Happy Life of Isadora Bently by the same author.
Clementine Crane Prefers Not To by Kristin Bair – Expected publication 14th October 2025 – I find myself drawn to book titles that have names in them – who knows why. Something to do with wanting to connect with or relate to a character maybe. That is what drew me to this novel and that is what I hope to find in it’s pages.
The Book of Autumn by Molly O’Sullivan – Expected publication 28th October 2025 – It was the cover of this book that caught my eye then led me to read the synopsis and decide to take a leap and read something that I wouldn’t normally. I’m not really a dark academia/fantasy kind of girl but I was so drawn to something in this debut novel that I had to read it.
Feedback ratio: 79%
I tend not to review the books where I have nothing nice or constructive to say. I hate the idea that I might ruin the book for someone else so I only post feedback for books that I feel are 3 stars or above.
Requests:
I had a little bit of a requesting spree this month; requesting 5 books and keeping my fingers crossed for all of them.
What’s on your NetGalley shelf? Which ARCs are you excited to read? Is there anything coming up that you’re hoping to receive?
