Currently have 18 books on my shelf and would like to limit what I add moving forward and pick and choose what I really want to read so I can provide a review before the release date, I like to tandem read to much so that might be more than I can give anyways. I would like to get to the following. Will add review as I read.

It was a program that they did this past summer. If you participated and gave the program a review you got the badge. You didn't have to do too much. They just had things on social media where you could join in and you had to link a review.






I need to get rid of that backlog...

How to Participate:
The NetGalley Challenge is designed to not only get you to read your NetGalley books, but to also advertise your reviews for others to see because after all, that's what NetGalley is all about.
Though you may pop in/out at any time, the NetGalley Challenge will run on a monthly basis so you are able to see progress being made.
1. At the beginning of the month, post any/all of the following:
a: How many books on your NetGalley shelf
b: What books are on your NG shelf
c: What your Netgalley feedback ratio is
2. During the month, read the NetGalley books that you can AND update your post with your reviews. (You can do this after each book or wait until the end of the month.)
3. At the end of the month, update your post and with:
a: What books you read
b: Link(s) to your review(s)**
c: Your updated shelf count
d: Your updated books to read
e: Your updated ratio
Then start a new post for the next month!
