Reminder that the publisher that sent unsolicited and unconsented for sex toys to people is the SAME one still currently under boycott, and that this boycott is explicitly to not do promotion or reviews of their titles. This boycott has been going on since October of 2023, and since they have not responded it is still ongoing.
And yes, this includes any titles you may have on Netgalley (or other arc review sites).
"But wait, my feedback ratio!" I hear you cry.
There's a solution for that. When the boycott started I had about 2 SMP titles, and 1 I had just reviewed. And on NG using the "will not provide feedback" option negatively affects your feedback score, so no, I'm not suggesting that.
Here are the 3 "reviews" for the titles I had from the boycotted publisher.
And then I have not requested or taken any of their titles that they've placed on "Read Now" to try to force an end to the boycott.
Doing this has not affected my acceptance rate for titles I request, by the way. Publishers who rejected me beforehand still do, publishers who generally accepted me still do, and ones where it was a 50/50 are still about the same.
