My Current NetGalley TBR

(Last Updated On: )

Maybe this is just because I am a curious cat, but I would love getting a glimpse at other people’s NetGalley shelves. So today, I am letting you snoop through mine because I am sharing the arcs on my current NetGalley TBR with you!

Majesty (American Royals #2) – Katharine McGee

I was approved for this arc a week after the publication date and I still haven’t read it (eternal shame on me, I know). It’s officially the oldest arc on my NetGalley TBR! I picked up American Royals on a whim because my lovely friend Miriam from Between Lines and Life read it, and I had so much fun with it! Royal drama, intrigue and romance was just what I needed at the time. And for someone who usually doesn’t read much contemporary romance, it was very fun and accessible. So naturally, I jumped at the chance to read the sequel. If you follow me on Goodreads or TheStorygraph (which you really should, btw 😉), you might have seen that I have finally started reading Majesty! This means you can expect my review sometime soon. I can’t wait to see how the story continues, the first book left us with quite a shocking development…

These Violent Delights – Chloe Gong

Considering how many times I’ve mentioned this book, it really should be a crime that I’m still reading it. These Violent Delights is a firm 5-star prediction and I am already obsessed with it. So really all I have to do is brace myself for having my heart broken and finally commit to this wonderful story. Luckily, the sequel is coming out later this year and I have already preordered it, so I won’t have to wait long to know how the story of Roma and Juliette continues!

These Violent Delights is also on my 21 for 2021 list!

The Shadow in the Glass – JJA Harwood

I did a little happy dance when my wish for this arc was approved! It happened right before Christmas and I’d like to consider it a present from the universe. The Shadow in the Glass is a dark and gothic Cinderella retelling that sounds right up my alley. I mean, magical wishes and curses all set in Victorian times? Come on, that sounds absolutely delicious!

Release date: March 18 – HarperVoyager

In the Ravenous Dark – A. M. Strickland

“A pansexual bloodmage reluctantly teams up with an undead spirit to start a rebellion among the living and the dead.” That’s the tagline for In the Ravenous Dark and it’s all it took for me to click “request”. I love queer fantasy books and books with death vibes and this sounds both deliciously dark and queer! 

Release date: May 18 – Imprint

The Summer Job – Lizzy Dent

This arc found its way onto my shelf through a very lovely email from a Penguin publicist. Because I read and reviewed Beach Read, they figured I might enjoy The Summer Job, too! I really hope that turns out to be true because The Summer Job sounds incredibly fun! A case of mistaken identity and a luxury holiday? Sign me up for what is sure to be a wild (and of course romantic) ride.

Release date: April 15 – Viking

You and Me on Vacation – Emily Henry

And finally, Emily Henry’s newest novel. Beach Read took me by surprise and was the book that made me go “hang on, I think I need to read more romance!” so when I was offered an arc for this book, I jumped on the chance! You and Me on Vacation is a friends to lovers romance across multiple years of summer vacations. If that doesn’t make you swoon (and want to jump into the nearest pool), I don’t know what will. I can’t wait to meet the main characters, Poppy and Alex, and follow their story!

Release date: July 8 – Penguin

    I actually own Majesty, but…. well let’s say I’m cautious xD So, keep me posted! (also, thank you so much for the shoutout, love! The drama really got me there :D)
    Also, super curious to hear your thoughts on “In the Ravenous Dark”, it sounds brilliant!
    And of course, Emily Henry’s newest! You know how much I adore Beach Read!

      So far I’m really enjoying Majesty! It’s the perfect escapism book and I feel like it looks a bit more at how restricting and lonely being royal can be. And yes, I will keep you updated on those two 😁

      Haha, it’s probably because I only started using NetGalley last August or so and I’m trying very hard not to request too much 😂 If it’s any help, I also don’t feel on top of mine, even tho it’s fairly short! It’s an eternal struggle.

Chat with me!
