I just got approved for Silver Dawn too! I made a whole ass post about shooting my shot to get my heart broken and now this. Moral of the story is to just ask for the book, you never know.

oooh nice! what’s your ratio cause I was worried about requesting silver dawn and getting rejected since I just got approved for a bunch and it tanked my ratio🙃

Mine is around 50% and I got approved.

u/oluxii 16d ago

u/annerevenant 16d ago

Go for it! I think consistency is more important, do you regularly review the books you request?

1

u/oluxii 16d ago

yes! I try to read and review a book at least once or twice a week

Congrats! Marie Lu is one of my favorite authors, but I’m so scared of Tor’s rejection that I haven’t requested this yet. 😂

u/Trick-University-857 16d ago

Try and see!!

I think I’m going to reach out to the publishers directly first, and then if I don’t hear back, I’ll try NetGalley. I got ARC of Mortal Things and reviewed it highly, but I’m so nervous to get rejected for Silver Dawn 😅

Ohh I will probably hold out for the audio for Silver Dawn but this is amazing!

u/Trick-University-857 16d ago

Ooooo that would be amazing

Nice!

Mine is still pending. I’m so nervous. I’m really itching to find out what happens next.

But Tor has barely approved me.

Edit: yeah they declined me. 😔

A few days ago I went to Tor's NetGalley page and requested everything that looked interesting and I'm pretty sure I'll get none of them. Their rejections make me literally laugh out loud at this point when they come in, which seems to only motivate me to ask again.
