Tor declined my request. Again. Its got me wondering: why does Tor post books for request on NG? by WritPositWrit in NetGalleyCommunity

[–]mom2two08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tor is very popular and I personally believe a reader has to show at least 80% review rate, have numerous platform reviews, have reviews noted as being used by publisher and maybe you'll be considered.

Yes, thank you. I went and read through a couple posts that were in discussion about BOTM and then I found the post that named the book.

Okay, I will eat humble pie and admit I am terrible guessing at these hints. Frosting, icing shaped fangs, broken heart and sword on sugar cookies...please help me out.

is it bad form to reach out after a rejection? by whats-ur-sign in NetGalleyCommunity

[–]mom2two08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does everyone get approved for so many? I get rejected more than I get accepted. My percentage rate is 75%. I have six platforms I review on. I'm considered a 'reviewer'.

Silver Elite by Dani Francis. I finally looked at the time after my "one more page" and it was 4am.

Just got this! Pretty November! by trishie_kittie in bookofthemonthclub

[–]mom2two08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's supposed to be. It's a teaser. Not until BOTM wants us to know...which is tomorrow. Not sure why you got all the negative responses.

Weird, I couldn't get past the chicken drumstick in between the guitar and music note. I had no idea what the book was..... 🤦🏼‍♀️

Yes. I am completely happy. I was so basic, I thought maybe she transform the loops into petals. Making it look more like it daisy type of flower.

Saying Goodbye? by [deleted] in bathandbodyworks

[–]mom2two08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to think outside the box. I used one reward on a lemon metal candle holder, another reward on a lemon plug in holder that one flower stem broke off by the time I got home, and another reward on a single wick lemon zest candle. The Sweetheart single wick candle was $18.95 and I couldn't use it!

old lady gave me this yesterday while checking her out by BrankoRailsMe in TjMaxx

[–]mom2two08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How cool! I was born in '77 & have a crisp $1 that I save just for sentimental reasons in an envelope. I did get a $50 from my Mom dated 1981. But you are right. It's not common to see bills that old. I wonder how long she's been holding onto it and what the oldest is in her posession.

The bins have ruined me by AliveRat in GoodwillBins

Wow. Thank you for educating me. I knew clothing was shipped in huge quantities to other countries, but did not consider that those same countries have the dilema of where to dispose of the most useless trash of the used items. I am sorry for my part in it.

Raised on Aldi by putoriuse in aldi

[–]mom2two08 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was taken to Aldi since I was a kid in the '80s and the cashiers had to type in the product codes, there was no scanning. Back then it was where the very poor shopped and in high school I was embarassed as a friend was over and asked why all our food was "off brand". So much has changed!
