One thing that any book blogger will tell you is that when we first get a NetGalley, we go ‘request-happy’. Basically, we will request any and all e-ARCs even if we know that we won’t read them for a while. With that being said, I’ve had a NetGalley for a year and a half. I still request way too many e-ARCs, and it takes me forever to get around to reading them. Some of these books I may never end up getting to. Let’s get into the list of my ARC shame!

Phew! I can’t believe how many I have! I know I don’t have as many as some other bloggers, but it’s awful because I’ve fallen into a slump due to school and extracurriculars. I’m hoping to at least start chipping away at some of these soon!
Liv is a 16 year old book blogger who resides in Pennsylvania, U.S.A. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, petting cats, and listening to musicals.
I also have a huge amount of ARCs to read. Luckily most come out in 2018, but I do have a couple more to read this year.

Usually I limit myself to 2 ARCs a month but I got a little ARC happy in the last week (as I usually do a couple times a years) and have a mountain to get through in the next two weeks. Luckily, I have the time to tackle them all. But I definitely need to reign in it next month 😛

Haha this is soooo relatable – I’m so bad when it comes to controlling my requests on NetGalley! You’ve got some fantastic titles here though so I can’t wait to see what you think of them all whenever you end up reading them!

I always have so many books I need to read however I have become much better at reducing that list down over the past month or so by requesting less ARCs and prioritizing review copies so I don’t feel too stressed!

I went crazy when I first found out about NetGalley, and requested so many things xD Now I’ve learned how to control myself … sort of haha Some of the books in your list seem pretty interesting, do you know which one you’ll get to first? 😀

I wish my list was as short and current as yours!! Lack of reading time means my list is practically double, with titles dating back until 2013 haha
