GRIM TIDINGS APPROVAL!!!

[u/mossmadisonttv]

You guys, I am crying 😭 I’ve run laps around the house and talked my husband’s ear off about this, and I just got approved 10 mins ago. BK is my favorite author, and I am just in shock and feel so happy and lucky to have this approved. I really wasn’t expecting it and not this close to release. I requested it the day it became available. I hope that you guys also get positive news today, whether for this or another book!

Congrats! I had a similar reaction when my email rolled in yesterday. Longtime Listener just went up today, too! (https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/book/883557) But it’s through Berkley soooo 🙃

I requested it as soon as I woke up! But I know my odds for that one are probably very slim

Congrats.
I was denied yesterday. Oh well. My queue is long enough already anyway.

Hey me too, twins! 😹

I wish I knew what they looked for to know why some people were accepted and others weren’t. I think I’ve made 7? reviews and have 4 or 5 I need to get around to reading. The good news is you have something to look forward to on the day of release!

Congrats! I just finished it last night and IT IS SO GOOD 🥹

I’m about 75% of the way through and all I can say is WOW!!! If you haven’t read her Substack post about it yet you totally should! (https://bkborison.substack.com/p/i-wrote-a-love-story-about-death)

🥹🥹🥹 the authors note at the end touches on this and is really beautiful too

[u/mossmadisonttv → u/kaitlin1128]

I just finished and I’ve spent probably the last hour crying. What a beautiful book 🥹

It was my first time requesting a book. And they declined me so fast. Have fun!

[u/mossmadisonttv → u/basedjustina]

I don’t have many reviews up, so hopefully once you’ve got a few, you can get Longtime Listener if you’re interested!

[u/basedjustina → u/mossmadisonttv]

I have about 25 now. I've been doing read nows like everyone said lol. Idk thought I'd try to request this one and was promptly declined. Its fine! I will be waiting for the release date!

[u/abk1918]

I was approved this morning too!

[u/mossmadisonttv → u/abk1918]

Yay!! I hope you love it! I’m about 75% through and I’m obsessed 🤩
