I've actually stated on my review request page that I likely won't respond to review requests because that not only absolves me of the guilt of not responding to emails in a timely fashion, but also means I never have to actually say no. The result is that I don't get a whole lot of review requests anymore, but I'm mostly okay with that at this point. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by. - Katie Just Another Girl and Her Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16895231437169823163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-819285584629633867.post-29246294198875615602018-04-07T15:17:28.291-07:002018-04-07T15:17:28.291-07:00I've gotten to the point that when I request b...I've gotten to the point that when I request books on Netgalley, it's basically a game. Like "how low are this publisher's standards?" because my feedback percentage is 25 and I have over 100 outstanding books to review (although I'm not sure publishers can see how many outstanding ARCs you have, but I do a monthly post on my blog, State of the ARC, where I say exactly how many books I have from Netgalley to review so really that information is available to the publishers if they want to see it). But Netgalley has some read nows that are just so hard to resist too. It's a sickness I think. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by. - Katie Just Another Girl and Her Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16895231437169823163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-819285584629633867.post-32552635467293558672018-04-07T15:11:39.563-07:002018-04-07T15:11:39.563-07:00Why thank you.

If you think of Netgalley like a game (which I've come to realize I do), it's lot less intimidating. You should really give it a shot (if you want to that is) because publishers are willing to take a risk on new requesters, just try to avoid going crazy with the read-nows so you don't end up overwhelmed by all the books you have to read (like I am). - Katie Just Another Girl and Her Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16895231437169823163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-819285584629633867.post-8914212300667682332018-04-07T15:02:37.631-07:002018-04-07T15:02:37.631-07:00Glad I could make you laugh.

I have difficulty passing up on book review requests because I don't want to upset the requester, so I know what you mean when you say it's easier not to have to interact with a person and feel pressured to meet specific deadlines. Still trying to work on knowing it's okay to say no and not overwhelm myself, which is sometimes tough to remember. <br /><br />I posted a more indepth response to the question on my own blog, so please feel free to check it out if you want! <br /><br />http://inkblottings.com/book-blogger-hop-april-6th/InkBlottingshttp://www.inkblottings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-819285584629633867.post-18630241559864318172018-04-07T12:52:18.513-07:002018-04-07T12:52:18.513-07:00I'm currently requesting way too many books fr...I'm currently requesting way too many books from Net Galley.
