Since yesterday evening, the future of my book review blog, Marjolein Reads, which I started in 2008, and where I post a book review every week, has become very uncertain: my main source of review books, the website Netgalley, where publishers share books on for bloggers and influencers, has switched to a different download program for their books, instead of Adobe Digital Editions that most ereaders are compatible with, they now have a for most readers unknown download program, that is not compatible with for example , ereaders like Kobo, like I have. I truly have no influence in this, and this truly bothers me, because I can now only review what I have left on my ereader and laptop already, but since yesterday nothing new anymore. Truly wondering why Netgalley is doing this, it totally makes no sense. My only reading options left are reading from my laptop or the netgalley shelf app on my phone, both options do not work fine for me, and probably many other Netgalley users who review books. I now already read that many other bloggers have the same issue.
I truly hope that I don't have to stop book reviewing on my blog after 17 years, because reading and reviewing is also one of my only fun activities as I am mostly at home due to my kidney illness..I hope Netgalley will change this back.. 🙏🤞
