Right. I thought when the book was advertised on NetGalley's site with the cover, it would automatically all transfer. Bit disappointing. Thank you for the info.

Thank you for replying.

I've just downloaded

Can anyone tell me why, when I send the book to my kindle, the book's cover doesn't always come in? Thanks in advance. I find it annoying when I'm writing a review.

I put a question about this very thing in another thread here, wasn't sure where to put it. I had two books recently in 'pending' even after one of them was published. I wish they'd even decline it rather than just leave it there!!!!

I've had a few NetGalley ARC's declined in the early days but lately I've had two 'pending' even after the publication date. Can anyone tell me why this is? I'm just curious because I'd rather be approved or declined, not left hanging.

I've just finished The Cornish Witch by Elena Collins.

I just read the review. My suggestion would be to cut out the first sentence. ..."

Thanks Rosh. I'll take a look at that.

Thank you all so much for taking the time to reply.

The only other one I post on is Instagram.

No Donna, it's Tough Times on Coronation Close. I've been over it. Can't see what's wrong. The fact they published the one you have highlighted here and not the other amazes me! I got absolutely zero help when I contacted Amazon.

Thanks Rosh. No that's not the review. It's called Tough Times on Coronation Close. There's absolutely nothing I can see that's the problem. I contacted Amazon which was a complete waste of time.!! Literally got no help. I asked them to point me in the direction they were opposed to, got nothing. A standard answer and got that twice!

Donna thank you so much for replying!!! It's the first time ever it's happened to me. Does that mean I won't ever get to post the review of that book? I've gone back over my review and there's not a single thing I can see that would cause it not to be published. I contacted them and talked to them online but so far no changes.

Not sure which thread to post in so I'm just chancing here. I submitted my review to Amazon on publication day for the NetGalley book I read. I got an email saying they couldn't publish it as it didn't follow guidelines. I've done it exactly as I always have and this had never happened before. Has this happened to anyone else? I'd be grateful for any advice.

Can someone help me please? I've been a NetGalley member for a long time but I've never downloaded A Read Now book. If I do, how long do I have to read and review it? Does it have to be straight away?
I'd be grateful for any advice.

That's great Sherri and thanks for taking the time to reply. Yes life certainly gets in the way at times!!

Hi! Hope I'm posting this in the right area.
Could someone help with this. I've been offered an ARC but I know I won't have it read before publication day because it's coming up quite soon and I have three to read already. Is it alright to refuse it, do I ignore the offer (which seems rude) or is there another alternative?

And why not Sherri :)

Hi Loreley and welcome. I didn't know you could use other NetGalley sites. I'm in Ireland and always directed to the UK site.
