Another NetGalleyNovember has come to an end. This month long readathon is about reading books on your NetGalley shelf with the aim of ending up with a better NetGalley ratio then when you started. So, how did I get on?
Well, I managed to read the number of books I aimed for and increased my NetGalley ratio by more than my original target. I’m really happy with this result. The challenge gave me the motivation to read some books that have been languishing in my virtual TBR pile for way too long.
I constructed my reading list based on the #NetGalleyNovember Bingo card and stuck to it, managing to match all but one of the categories. I never seem to have a book whose title begins with ‘N’! Links from the titles will take you to my review.
Newest approval: The Teacher by Tim Sullivan (review to follow for blog tour in January 2024)
Published this year: The Unspeakable Acts of Zina Pavlou by Eleni Kyriacou
New to you author: Mrs Whistler by Matthew Pamplin
Most anticipated: Things in Jars by Jess Kidd
Buddy read: Rebellion (Eagles of Empire #22) by Simon Scarrow (not technically a buddy read but I took part in the blog tour)
Green cover: The Diver and the Lover by Jeremy Vine
Title beginning with ‘N’: X
One you’ve been putting off: Second Sister by Chan Ho-Kei (it’s over 500 pages)
Oldest approval: The Binding by Bridget Collins (review to follow)

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.
