2026 Netgalley and Edelweiss Reading Challenge

  

This is my 4th year participating in this challenge, hosted by Socrates Book Reviews.  This is a fun way to keep myself accountable and see what others are reading and posting.

I reviewed 95 Netgalley titles in 2025 which I think is the most I've ever done in a year.  I don't know if I want to do as many this year, I started to get a bit burnt out by the end of the year.  I do want to continue clearing out my backlog of ARCs that I took when I was new to Netgalley and Edelweiss and had no idea what I was doing.

Here's to whatever 2026 holds and to reading some great books!  As always I'll link my reviews as I post them and post any approvals for upcoming ARCs as they come in.
