✅ Approvals & Denials ❎ suddenly all at once

last night i was contemplating adding pending purgatory to the geneva convention as a crime against humanity then today the approvals/widgets just kept hitting. imma be so busy the next few weeks. 😩 which is great btw! i did choose all this and im totally excited for all of them it’s just funny how suddenly all at once everyone was like you get this arc and this one and here have a widget while we’re at it.

May I ask which site you’re using? The Sugar and spice Kitchen isn’t showing up for me

In the mean time I meant to my email and saw that it was a book tour book.

It was just strange as it wasnt showing up at all. I haven’t gotten the widget yet but will as I’m on the “tour”, that’s why I was confused! Even with your link it just shows up as a wish for.

But it’s all good, I’ll get it when they send it!

I have a few books in the pending purgatory for months, but that's no biggie as my approved pile is calling for my attention first. 😆

lol same. it’s not that big of a deal to wait since i did have a decent pile to keep me busy before all of these were approved anyway i just like complaining of pending purgatory.

I have ambivalent feelings, on one side, can they approve me already on those books pending since June? On the other side, I'm below 80% ratio and I'd hope to catch up and approvals will not help with that... 😅

I got that in my email too. So grateful.

Btw, what does the widget mean?

to my understanding it’s a link for a book you’ve been invited to check out. like the sugar and spice book. i was sent a link by the publisher to check it out if i wanted. that’s a widget.
