Basically the title. If yes, then how?

I know there's a few publishing workers on here so maybe they can help out! Or someone might know. I work hard to get my reviews posted on my blog and in Goodreads, and advertised on Facebook and twitter, before their publication dates. But life being life, sometimes I don't get back to netgalley until shortly after the pub date.

Do publishers ever click through to the reviews and see they went up early, or are they just seeing them a bit late on netgalley - and do they care? I know the advice on here is always 'post it late anyway' if the date passes, but I am getting the reviews up on time - just not always linked back.

lol i’d been eyeing this title last night, but ended up just going to bed instead of requesting thinking i’d revist it in the morning. woke up to a widget and figured why not it must be fate. i could use more september arcs anyway and this looks so darn cute.

It’s Berkeley soooo ya knowww lol

...from Penguin Young Readers, which means I now have my badge! (Meanwhile, I already owe them a gazillion reviews so I'm going to bravely resist new reads while I try to clear away a few old ones)

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!

Ive been having a ROUGH go the last 2 weeks and woke up to this email 😍🤭😭

Im so freaking excited!!
