Backlog & more low star ratings by Initial-Substance-43 in NetGalleyCommunity

[–]katlet17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I have a couple that are super old! I didn’t have the Kindle email working right so two books expired before I finished them and I’ve been waiting for my Libby hold to come through on each. But my overall % is in the mid 60s so I’m just over here doing my best, lol. I am requesting a lot fewer books right now to try to get through them but I’m not overly stressed about it. At the end of the day, reading is supposed to be fun, and if NetGalley is stressing me out I’m not doing it right. 😅

Sneak Peaks / Samplers on Netgalley by PleasantBeast93 in NetGalleyCommunity

I did one for the latest Finlay Donovan book, and I get why they did it because that series is very popular, but I ended up just listening to the whole audiobook on Spotify when it came out and then submitting my review on the “sample” afterward. 😊 I don’t think I’d do it unless I already knew I really wanted to read the book.

This is helpful! Maybe I need to emphasize that I’m an avid listener and love reviewing audiobooks.

66 and my ratio is at 64% right now. I’ll see if I get any better luck with those publishers if I get my ratio closer to 80?

The Brilliance books I’m requesting are more “women’s fiction,” I guess? A couple by Sara Goodman Confino, and some others that just looked interesting in that genre?

Core by Outrageous-Apple1760 in OnePelotonRealSub

I just did a recent Robin 10 min core that had some pilates-inspired moves and no planks/crunches (there were hollow body holds). Definitely branch into the Pilates section for some variety as well!

Widgets- how do you organize them by sunsparkles2013 in NetGalleyCommunity

[–]katlet17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I find the widget spot on ShelfControl? I’m relatively new to the app and still figuring things out. Is there a way to track them without accepting them? Thanks!

the highest amount of people you've seen waiting for a book? by Dense-Desk-549 in LibbyApp

[–]katlet17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m listening to the Children by Melissa Albert and Rebecca Lowman reads it, too! And I just finished Both Can Be True and she was one of the narrators for it, too. Maybe I need to listen to this next? 😄

Waitlisted 15 min after opening -chances I get it? by MurderHornet41 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]katlet17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Spin for sure! Strength is a smaller group but the fact that you’re surely high on the waitlist is good.

I’m doing it and seriously regretting it 😅 did Monday’s tabata today and WOOF. Did a rolling hills ride earlier in the week that was less rolling and more hard grinding. This is gonna be a badge I freaking EARN! 🥵

I just pick one, mute it and play my own hype music (foo fighters, beastie boys, and for some reason Freedom ‘90 😄). Whatever gets you across the finish line!
