I discovered Netgalley last year, and became a kid in a candy store. Since then I have acquired several arcs (both e and physical books) and while they are my priority it is always nice to have a little motivation or push to read them.
Yesterday, I discovered Review Copy Cleanup hosted by NYX Book Reviews and Books, Biscuits & Tea. This event runs the whole of February, the complete summary is below.
- The Review Copy Cleanup 4.0 runs from 1 to 28 February
- It starts and ends midnight of your local timezone to avoid confusion
- To sign up, just fill in the Mister Linky below. Link to your sign up post directly please! The Linky is the same for both our blogs, so you only have to sign up once
- The Linky will close on the 15th, so make you sign up before then
- When you post your sign up post on your blog, either include the challenge button with your post or link it back to this article so that people know where to sign up. Thanks! (:
- Every book you received for review counts towards the challenge, both ebooks and hard copies (even audiobooks for review if you have those), including all genres and lengths
- Feel free to use the #RCCleanup hashtag on Twitter for your RCC related tweets or join in the Twitter party at http://tweetchat.com/room/RCCleanup and meet lots of awesome bloggers (:
- At the end of every week we will post our personal updates, and we’ll include a Linky for you to add yours!

Erin @ Let's Evaluate
Thanks, I have a mental list of what I'd like to read off of this month.
WOW you have a lot of books to review. I have one that I actually just forced myself to make time for. It is my first Indie book… the review should be up next week. Good luck!!

Angela's Anxious Life
I know, I didn't realize it until I typed it down. My goal is to read at least four and I'm already halfway through Road to Reckoning, which leaves me promising.
I'll have to stop by this week and read your review.
Tracking John Updike's Foot Fetish.
This is only scratching the surface! Some quotes from six of Updike's fifty odd books.He kneels to comply. Annoyed at such ready compliance, which implies pleasure, she stiffens her feet and kicks so her toenails stab his cheek, dangerously near his eyes.
