July’s Progress…

Completed:

Since my June State of the ARC, I have completed 25 review copies!

I also DNFed and/or set aside (for now!) 8 review copies:

  • DNF (permanently):
    • Wilder Girls
    • Little Mama
  • Might pick up again later:
    • Hope and Other Punchlines
  • DEFINITELY picking up again later:
    • Gideon the Ninth
    • Other Words for Smoke
    • The Phantom Forest
    • The Rest of the Story
    • Ragged Alice


In Progress:

Right now, I have 4 review copies in progress.


Acquired:

I also acquired 46 new review copies (17 physical, 29 digital), with 1 of them being unsolicited (meaning I didn’t request or accept it). I have completed 13 of the new additions.

I’m glad I completed so many of them, but WOW, this number has me cringing a little lol! I said last month that I wanted to haul way LESS titles in July, but that didn’t quite work out. Fingers crossed for a little more self-restraint in August!

    I’m so glad I returned Wilder Girls when I had the chance, so many of the reviews have either been DNF or not positive. Fab post!

      Ooooh, good! I think I replied to your other comment about Wilder Girls earlier tonight so sorry about that, I hadn’t seen this one yet. But I don’t think you’re missing anything, sadly 🙁

    Woah, this list is huge, Destiny! I saw a few titles that I’m anticipating here. Best of luck to conquer ’em all!

    Wow, that is quite the list. It’s incredible that you are able to get through all those books and even keep track.
    I am glad I skipped Wilder Girls. I don’t think I have read a single positive review for that one (among the people I follow).
    Glad to have come across your site. Followed. 🙂
