2024 NetGalley/Edelweiss Challenge

UPDATED: December 24, 2024 to show the entire list of ARCs I read in 2024. Thanks to Yvonne for a fun challenge as always.

I’m happy to participate again in Yvonne’s 2024 NetGalley/Edelweiss Challenge as shown on her sign-up page at her Socrates Book Reviews. As of this writing, I’ve still got one more book to finish for this year, and unfortunately I’m gonna fall short of that Diamond goal I had and read in 2022. I apparently just didn’t take as many ARCs this year or there might’ve been some I asked for and didn’t get. Either way, I’ll go for Platinum, or 75 for 2024. That way if I go over, I’ll like that better, lol.
