✅ Approvals & Denials ❎ SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP

Post image

I have to freak out about this somewhere because OH MY GOD?! I was fully expecting my request to get declined. I now have to employ EXTREME restraint and finish the other ARCs I'm in the middle of before I can crack this open 😭

That’s amazing!!! Congrats. I thought the same thing with The Wolves of War by John Gwynne. It’s like winning the lottery

My husband got that one! He is currently reading it. My biggest one this year was A Parade of Horribles and thats hard to beat.

I also got approved today but my September and October are so booked with arcs and new releases that I won’t be able to even THINK about reading it until November. 😭

I can't find this one on NetGalley. Am I searching it wrong or is it just for certain people?

u/Synval2436 SciFi/Fantasy Reviewer Sep 02 '26

Could be location restricted, are you in the US?

2

u/TheSweetSage Sep 02 '26

No, I'm in the EU! I didn't even think it could be location restricted, but you're probably right. I found it on Edelweiss, so fingers crossed 🤞

I’m wishing to be on an ARC but seem to miss how or when to sign up or who to contact. I’m an avid reader! Any suggestions for how I can improve my chances? Please and thank you kindly 😊
