Since I've been trying to cut back on book buying lately, I wanted to change up the challenge a little bit today and talk about authors I will jump to request arcs for.

ARC Snobbery: A Discussion
You all know I love and read a lot of Advanced Reader Copies (ARCs). I can't say I know many readers who aren't attracted to ARCs, or interested in obtaining them.

A Curse so Dark and Lonely: Netgalley Review
I requested A Curse so Dark and Lonely from Bloomsbury to review on Netgalley. I was honestly a little hesitant about this one, I put off requesting it for a while, but Milana really loved it so I went for it!

Zero Sum Game: NetGalley Review
I received a digital arc of Zero Sum Game by S. L. Huang from NetGalley, and I was also lucky enough to get a physical arc from Tor during San Diego Comic-con. I heard some great things about this book, but it is not my usual genre so I was cautiously optimistic going into this one. Zero Sum … Continue reading Zero Sum Game: NetGalley Review
