State of the ARC is a monthly feature hosted by Avalinah's Books.
All the rules can be found at the link provided. I am temporarily hosting for Evelina until she is able to get back into it. So, until then, thanks for joining me here!
I am still trying to figure out the fancy-schmancy graphs that Evelina does and she has been very helpful in pointing me in the right direction. Until then, I apologize for the boring data display.
Links go to Goodreads, unless I have finished the review. The majority of the ARCs I receive are through NetGalley. Some have also come from publicists, or were offered to me from a publisher who specifically approved me for it on NetGalley; I will always note in the review how I acquired the ARC.

When I first started blogging my monthly State of the ARC I felt like I was drowning in ARCs. My main goal was to get my NetGalley feedback ratio above 80% and thanks to this meme, I slowly but surely clawed my way up. At my highest I was at 97%. I am currently at 93% even with two NetGalley ARCs due (Tombstone and Race Against Time), and The Girls Are Gone waaaaaaaay overdue. Now that I am back in the swing of things, getting those reviews done will be priorities.
How have you done with your ARCs in the last couple months without State of the ARC around? Did you keep posting your own, or are you just starting back now?
I am so excited to be helping out, let's talk ARCs!
Happy Reading

I have been working very hard to get caught up with ARCs. The key for me is slowing down on accepting new books for review. I am down to 75 books to read for NetGalley and 12 on Edelweiss. I ave a lot of print ARCs too but I haven't counted those. It is a work in progress.
ReplyDeleteI had a crazy amount of ARCs for NetGalley too, and that is why I started doing this in the first place. I was able to focus on those and really worked hard to get to my 93%! I found I do not like Edelweiss as much, which is kind of disappointing. The selection is not as good, I don't think anyway.
