Looking through my drafts folder I’ve come across quite a few tags that I have yet to do. This one was sent to my by Mischenko over Read Rant Rock and Roll since July! I also think I have a couple even older than that… but that’s a discussion for another day. Thanks Mischenko for the tag!
Rules:
♥ Link back to the tag’s creator Kourtni at Kourtni Reads.
♥ Thank and link back to the person who tagged you.
♥ Answer the questions the best you can. If you don’t use NetGalley, you can substitute other sites or places where you get books!
♥ Tag a few people to do this too.
-Auto-Approved: Who’s one author whose books you automatically want to read, regardless of what they’re about?
I can’t narrow down to one! A few of these authors you may have heard me mention before: Jessica Redland, Jana DeLeon, James J. Cudney and J.K. Rowling. Hmm… I seemed to have picked one letter though… J 😂
-Request: What makes you want to request a book that you see on NetGalley?
I have a serious cover love problem. The cover will always give me pause if I like it. Then of course I’ll check out the blurb and if it’s an author I know I enjoy, I’ll most likely request.
Feedback Ratio: Do you review every book you read? If not, how do you decide what books to review?
Since I started blogging a year ago, I have pretty much reviewed all the fiction books I read.
Badges: If you could create your own badge to display on your blog, what would it be for?
I’m going with Mischenko’s answer: Maybe a few badges for the reading challenges I’m doing this year?
Wish for It: What’s one book that you are absolutely dying to read?
I’m really excited for the sequel to Children of Blood and Bone: Children of Virtue and Vengeance. I also just requested the next book by Chanel Cleeton, When We Left Cuba (which is kind of sequel to Next Year in Havana).
2017 NetGalley Challenge: What was the last book that you received as an ARC that you reviewed? If you’ve never received an ARC, what’s the last book you reviewed?
The last ARC I reviewed is Due East, Beasts and Campfire Feasts by Erin Johnson. I have a couple more ARCS coming up this month too.
I Tag:
Anyone who’s in the mood to do a NetGalley Tag!!!!
Have a great Tuesday.
And to those who are celebrating…. Happy Diwali.
Ooooh you are auto approved with Jay, I am sure.
Secondly happy diwali… Lovely lights.
Thirdly beautiful answers.
I want auto approval for thrillers fantasy, horror, women’s fiction.
It would be easier to say I don’t want auto approval for pure romance and erotica…
I love good covers too. I don’t read books with bad covers generally. At least I won’t buy that book.
At this moment, due to headache, I am dying to get back to reading without pain. 😕😕😞😞🤕🤕😕😕
I review all book on NetGalley, sometimes I don’t want to write or I am blocked then I write a few lines as feedback. But don’t put up a review on blog.
And yayyy another tag done and you got a loooong comment 😂😂😂😂😂😁😁

That is a loooong comment. Lol.
I’m sorry you still have that headache and I really hope it clears up soon so you can get back to fully enjoying your books and everything else it’s affecting.
I know the whole don’t judge a book by a cover thing but I can’t help it sometimes! Lol. Especially if I don’t know anything about the author.
I feel bad not to do the NetGalley reviews… for now 😉😂😊 But I am extremely selective with what I request there too.

I’m so glad you did the tag! I’m with you–the cover gets me every single time. Do all the ‘Spells and Caramels’ books have similar covers? I love that one and must get to the series eventually. Thanks for linking back! ❤

Yup. All the books have similar covers. All pretty! Lol.
You’re welcome and thanks again for the tag!

Happy Diwali!!!
I totally agree with your cover love!! That’s usually how I pick my books… Although, I have had some other strange reasons to request books. Like the request I made because of the character’s name. 😂😂 I never know what will entice me!

Hahaha Sooo kind of you to have James in there too! 😛 And I too can totally fall for covers. But I have to admit that if they’re extra ugly, I’m really not likely to give it a shot. Unless I know the book’s reputation! 😀
LikeLiked by 1 person
Yes! I do that too. Ugly cover with no knowledge of the author or the book itself…. sorry! 😂😂

I’m with you on the cover love: I’m a secondhand book fiend, so it’s not often that I get to pick and choose which edition/cover I wish to purchase (I pretty much get what I get and I don’t get upset, ha!), so when I see a book with a beautiful cover, it has EXTRA pulling power *drools* 😍🤤
LikeLiked by 1 person
LOL. I know what you mean. That said, if I really really love a book I will go look for just the cover I want to keep. 😊
