When I first started using NetGalley, I was a kid in a sweet shop.
That looks good! *click* Oooh, that one looks interesting! *click* And... *click*
I didn't really think I'd get approved for any of them, at first, let alone most of what I asked for. And even after I figured that out, I didn't exactly stop myself... so what I'm trying to say is that I have a bit of a backlog.
The Netgalley Knockout challenge is to read as many e-galleys as possible during August, and I thought this might be a good opportunity to clear my virtual shelves, at least of books that are being released in August/September. Of which I have really rather too many. Here they are:
Crime/Thriller
- Dead Anyway, by Chris Knopf {done}
- The Paris Lawyer, by Sylvie Granotier {done}
- Syndrome E, by Franck Thilliez {done}
- The Vanishing Point, by Val McDermid {done}
- False Impressions, by Laura Caldwell {done}
- Treachery in Bordeaux, by Jean-Pierre Alaux & Noël Balen
- Blackwood, by Gwenda Bond {done}

Oh wow, that sounds like loads of reading fun...but definitely not easy, especially with all your non-fictions! I'll admit, non-fiction's my weakness so Kudos to you for being able to read them, haha XD Good luck with the challenge, Rachel! <3
I always get carried away! I have a long list..but just went with a few. Didn't want to overwhelm myself, lol.
Your list is so interesting, I see some books that are on my list too.
Your list sounds really great. I hope you have fun with the challenge!
Wow, you have quite a few! Hopefully you get through as many as you can! Mixing up the genres should be fun :)
