NetGalley November Check In

 Hello!

In November, it is the annual NetGalley November which is a fun month filled with trying to read as many books from your shelf as possible. There are fun prompts, a competition and group chats to help encourage you to read your highly anticipated books as well as the ones you have been avoiding!

My NetGalley shelf currently has 67 unread! Ranging from 2024 releases all the way back to 2020, I have a lot to read.

My feedback ratio is at 67% so I am hoping to get that back up into the 70s this month too.

These are some of the books I am most looking forward to reading:

NetGalley November 2020!

Hello!

Has your NetGalley shelf gotten out of hand? For the whole month of November, Emma at Emandherbooks and Lisa at girl_novel_living have created a plan for everyone who wants to get involved to tackle their NetGalley reads and up their ratio! Check out their pages for more information.

Here are my starting stats for the month:

Most Anticipated Books on my TBR!

 Hello!

Do you ever buy a book that you have heard lots about and know it's going to be amazing so you just leave it on your shelf for a long time never being read?? Or you buy a book for the hype but then don't want to pick it up in case it disappoints you? This is me! For this post I am going to go through some of my most anticipated reads (new and old) that are on my bookshelf that will probably take me a very long time to pick up!

1. The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

Obviously The Hunger Games are a very big franchise that many people loved, me included, and once I heard about this prequel that focuses on Snow as a young mentor for someone in the games, I was concerned but also curious. I have no idea when I will eventually get around to this but I'm pretty sure it won't be for a while!

The Mid-Year Freak Out Book Tag!

Hello!
How are we over halfway through the year already??
I first did this book tag last year only 6 months after I had first become a blogger and it was really fun re-reading my answers (2019 post here) and thinking about what my answers for this year could be!

So far I have already read 42 books out of 60 books for my Goodreads challenge and this time last year I had only read 20 so I have already doubled my reading!

1. Best book you’ve read so far in 2020

I loved The Henna Wars by Adiba Jaigirdar so much! Also look at how pretty the cover is!

#NetgalleyLibrary Readathon TBR

Hello! Here is my TBR for the #NetgalleyLibrary readathon hosted by Anniek and Hâf. This is the perfect timing for a Netgalley readathon as I am VERY behind on my ratio and this has given me the push I needed to get a few more books read and reivewed! There are 7 challenges that I have also taken into account although I have combined some to shorten the load.

Books/Series to Read in Isolation

Hello!

I know this is a really strange time for all of us staying home and trying to stay sane but reading has been a big help for me and I'm sure it is helping a lot of you too! Today's post is a selection of books and series that may be worth digging into to escape from reality for a little while whether they are a new read or a re-read for you.

1. Harry Potter series by J.K Rowling

Now is the perfect time to re-read or jump in as a first timer into the 7 book long series of the incredible story of Harry Potter! I first read these books years ago when I was a lot younger and I am really tempted to re-immerse myself in this brilliant story of magic. If you don't want to commit to 7 books you could always watch the films!
