And all your imprints,

Look, I know I'm a greedy bitch when it comes to free books. I also know that I have a serious problem with that 'request now' button. But really, you do not have to approve every damn request I make.

I mean, I'm GRATEFUL. But um... I have five books due in April. And the one you approved me for today? The one I requested three weeks ago? Is due this month.

*headdesk*

Someone change my Netgalley password and not tell me what it is. I keep getting myself in trouble.

On the bright side, the last two I've been approved for haven't been cowboy romances. One is a m/m romance and the other is a thriller. Do I get points for branching out? Didn't think so.

Anyway, I think I need to work on my self-discipline. On the up side, I only have three books left that I've requested and haven't gotten a response on. So, even if I'm approved for them all, I'm not in TOO much trouble. Just as long as none of them are due in April. Hahahahahahaha. *sobs*

These are the reasons I was dubbed the book whore deluxe you guys.

LOL!  You are your own worst enemy with this!  It amuses me no end as I have my own issues with Bookbub!  Thankfully none of those books requires a review, nor is there a time limit, although the 60 odd books I have waiting to be read sometimes concerns me!

Aren't I though? The good news is, there really isn't a deadline on these either. I just prefer to get the reviews done before the book publishes. But if I'm late, no one's coming for me. I belong to a reading challenge group on GR and they have a Netgalley challenge every month to help get our shelves cleaned up. In looking through March's post, someone had 42 books and over half were from 2018. I feel a lot better about mine now.

Bookbub is dangerous, too! I grabbed three freebies last week. Hahaha.

Ah well, that's not so bad then!

I do it all the time, despite telling myself I don't need any more books, and sometimes the plot sounds so good I have to buy one... which doesn't help.

Nope, not at all. I just like to get them read and posted before the publication date if I can. I started one over the weekend - The Perfect Girlfriend - and my god, this is going to be insane, I think.

ROFL, I know, right? It can be so dangerous.
