April 2025 Netgalley Check-in
April 2025 Netgalley Check-in! ππ #NetGalley #Bookish #Bookstagram #BookX #ReadingNext #BookList #BookSky
I want to keep my Netgalley shelf nice and clean, so I plan to do an occasional check-in. I've made significant progress this year on wrangling my NetGallet list. So, for accountability purposes, I had planned to share my shelf once a month, but that didn't work out, so maybe I'll do better with quarterly? I hope you'll follow along on my journey to see what I've read ... and what I've added.
These were my January starting numbers and stats.

I added four books but managed to pare my list down to only three. This means I have finished TEN books from my list since my last check-in!
These are the books currently on my April 2025 Netgalley Shelf.
Title/Author/Publication Date
Bull Moon Rising by Ruby Dixon ~ October 15, 2024
A Legionnaire's Guide to Love and Peace by Emily Skrutskie ~ June 24, 2025
Hive (Madders of Time #1) by DL Orton ~ May 6, 2025
(Links go to Amazon)
Which do you think I should read first?
I can still make the publication date for two of the books. Or should I start with the oldest book first? Maybe I should put the titles in a hat and read them in the order I draw the slips out. Should I make this strictly a mood-reading exercise?
Maybe I should quit pondering and get busy reading!!
Stay tuned for a progress update.

What an incredible Netgalley check-in! I wish I could go back and tell myself when I first joined Netgalley, how things really worked because I will never be able to recover from those early years π
It took a long time to recover from my early request spree. But, it's doable. Good luck with yours.

I love your NG ratio! π I worked hard to get into the 90s and Iβm never dipping again!
Thanks Carol! It took a concentrated effort. Like you, Iβm never going back! ππ
