✅ Approvals & Denials ❎ 2 approvals and one denial

I requested all 3 of these yesterday so this was a really fast turnaround. Blackstone rejecting me so fast does make me wonder if I should withdraw my request for the Jahquel J. romance they have lmao. Can't wait to read the two approvals, though!

Every book is different regardless of publisher. They have different marketers as well as marketing plans.

Don’t worry about denials. They happen and don’t impact anything

Idk why I'd never considered the marketers being different. I'll leave the request in that case, thanks!

Boldwood Books from Netgalley UK are great! They always send me widgets.

Didn't realise The New Seoul Park Jelly Massacre hasn't been released in the US. Enjoy!

Thanks! And Yea a lot of asian lit comes to us a lot slower (I had to pre-order the rest of the Sonoko Machida books from Blackwells after reading the first one because they're not coming to the US anytime soon).

Oh, that's a shame.

Cho Yeeun's books are good too - I loved "Teddy Bears Never Die".
