This great challenge is back again for 2023. I’ve worked hard on my ratio and I don’t have that many books on my NetGalley shelf but some of them have been there a really long time. Since 2019 in the case of the oldest one.
So what is NetGalley November? Basically it’s a month long readathon where you focus on reading books on your NetGalley shelf. Whether you start with a shelf of books in single figures or one with hundreds of books, the aim is to end up with a better NetGalley ratio then when you started, and of course enjoy talking about the books you read with others.
Follow the progress of all the participants on Twitter and Instagram – or better still, join in!
I’ve based my reading list on the #NetGalleyNovember Bingo card. I have one gap I can’t fill – unless I request a book specifically to match it which seems rather to defeat the object! Links from the titles will take you to the book description on Goodreads but eventually, I hope, to my review.

I’m sure you’ll succeed. I’m a bit OCD when it comes to ARCs on both NetGalley and Edelweiss, so I don’t have any old books on my shelf. The oldest one I have, I’m reading right now (and the only reason why I didn’t get to it before is because they changed up the release date to over a month before the original one)!

I’d love to be in the same position and if I can just get rid (although that sounds bad because I do want to read them) then I’ll feel much happier.
