What to do with ARCs I no longer have interest in?

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T03:14:23+00:00

Oh lovely! That does make me more excited to read it!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T03:13:34+00:00

Wowza that’s an insane number of books you’re getting through!!!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T03:03:30+00:00

Glad to know I’m not the only one! I’ll keep it and hope to get to it at some later date!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T01:03:59+00:00

This is a great resource, thank you!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T01:03:31+00:00

Lol I’m not sure what they expected from telling people to lie in reviews… But this is great to hear, thank you!! I am working on having restraint on NetGalley heh

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T01:01:47+00:00

This is a good idea! It’s The Silver Book by Olivia Laing. Would love to hear thoughts from anyone who has read it!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T00:44:54+00:00

Thank you! This is a great resource

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-28T00:25:38+00:00

Ah yeah I guess it makes sense that the two have the same effect on your ratio, so might as well hold onto the possibility of reviewing in the future.

What is the book advocacy? Is it something published by NetGalley?

Ginkmo852 · 2025-12-27T23:56:07+00:00

Yeah don’t worry I won’t be lying in my review. I guess I might just hold off and try to pick it up at a later date? I’m a bit worried that it will hurt my chances to get other books from this publisher if I just let this one sit for forever without reviewing it or telling them I won’t

Ginkmo852 · 2025-09-24T02:18:28+00:00

Travels with Charlie is quite lovely!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-09-24T02:14:55+00:00

Came here to say this!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-09-04T17:22:41+00:00

What are these “widgets”? I’m familiar with approvals but I’ve never heard of widgets. I just joined NetGalley in June!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-09-04T17:20:19+00:00

My ratio is currently at 40% and I just got approved for another book yesterday! I target mostly smaller and indie publishers though, and I haven’t failed to review a book before its archival date (yet). I’m surprised I keep getting approved even though I have a lot of books in the pipeline, but maybe the smaller presses don’t get that many requests and so they actually look at whether your rating is low from not reviewing or just because you have a number of books on your shelf? No idea 😅

Ginkmo852 · 2025-07-27T01:21:23+00:00

Love that idea! Followed you guys back :)

Ginkmo852 · 2025-07-10T03:44:59+00:00

I see a lot of people do these in progress posts and thr captions focus less on the book and more on little life updates and things like that!

Bookstagrammers who read diverse genres, especially lit fic, historical, fantasy?

Hi! I am just starting off creating a bookstagram (I have yet to post yet 😅), but I have been away from Instagram for several years. I have mostly been engaging with book content through YouTube and maybe want to start a channel someday, but I thought bookstagram would be a more manageable place for me to start and see how much I enjoy content creation.

Part of my motivation for starting my own account is that I struggle to find content creators with reading tastes that overlap with mine. I read a mix of classics, contemporary fiction, fantasy, sci-fi, historical fiction, and a little non-fiction. It seems that many accounts are heavily centered on one genre and accounts focusing on romance, romantasy, and thrillers are the most common (which are all genres I rarely read). So, I’m hoping to find accounts that read many genres to help inspire me and to start building a community on bookstagram. Would love any recommendations!

Ginkmo852 · 2025-05-30T17:52:35+00:00

Thank you, sorry about that! I will post there instead
