In an effort to stay transparent with my reader friends, I am tracking all my ARC stats on this page. This includes information like books I’ve requested, requests that were denied, requests that were approved and my corresponding review. If for whatever reason, I choose not to review an ARC, I will include that information as well. For books that I’ve already read and rated, click on the stars to go to the review.
For ARCs I wad declined, I include if I ended up reading it after the book’s release and by what means (store-bought, library, etc).
As of July 2026, I have read 13 of the ARCs I received, am currently reading one, have three on my TBR, and have one that I did not finish.
