State of the ARC is a monthly feature hosted by Evelina at Avalinah's Books - and now me, too! I took over temporary hosting duties back in early 2020. A couple months ago Evelina asked if I would like to co-host and of course I said yes! If you are new to the meme, you can check out the guidelines HERE.
Links go to my review. The majority of the ARCs I receive are through NetGalley. I sometimes find a book or two via Edelweiss or BookSirens. Others have come from authors, 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 SOTA, I slowly but surely clawed my way up. At my highest I was at 97%. I am currently at 92%.
How are you doing with your ARC goals? Let's talk ARCs!
Happy Reading

ooh! Like the sound of Gun Barons.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading it for ages and not because it is boring or anything, I just keep getting distracted.
DeleteWell, you do read a dozen books at once.. ;-)
DeleteHow dare you! lol. It's true, as you can see on my Goodreads 'currently reading' shelf. I love the era of robber barons, so it is something you'd think I would zip through quickly, but here we are.
