Iāve tried contacting Penguin Teen a few times, with no luck. Guess Iām just not important enough for a response
At this point, Iām just on the hunt via ARC trading groups to find the ones I need. Or Iāll just purchase finished copies.

Interesting; I will do a quick search to see if thereās a new request grid link. I was on the list but the person left last Fall and I havenāt gotten anything since. The few emails Iāve sent requesting arcs since then have gone unanswered, which is why Iāve been focusing on BookishFirst for Penguin Teen titles.
Thank you!

Not yet! My fingers are crossed that we will get it in tome to read and review before the pub date!
No, havenāt received it. So disappointed. I understand the delay but itās now starting to get a little redundant. Come on Penguin Teen! I feel so bad for the author, I canāt believe they didnāt push her release date back like others especially because sheās a debut. Iām also disappointed in @bookishfirst_team for not restoring our points for those of us who used them (me!) on penguin teen books. Iām now hesitant to use any points on anything right now.

Oh thank goodness. I saw some people receiving theirs and have been stalking my mailbox with no luck. I used my points for the book and Iām glad to hear Iām not the only one who hasnāt gotten their book yet. Fingers crossed it comes soon!

You saw people receive Kinder Poison??? I havenāt seen anyone get it!
No, cstrong555 was replying to an earlier comment about The Orphan Collector. Still outta luck on Kinder Posion 
I received my copy of The Sin in the Steel! Canāt wait for my other two!
I received my copy of The Exiles which was an extra giveaway.
It really shouldnāt fall on us to have to individually email the publisher and hope they respond, though. Thatās something @bookishfirst_team should be working out with Penguin Teen on our behalf, because isnāt that the whole point of being the middleman service?
Taps screen ā¦yāall still here? I mean, Iām assuming you are, since someone was able to post not one, but two different bingo cards for this month. Weāre headed into June now, and the last update we got was in April. So whatās the word, @bookishfirst_team?

I definitely agree, but at this pointā¦weāre just at a standstill it seems. Thereās not much of a response on anyoneās part.
I saw that Penguin Teen is listing giveaways again on Goodreads. Maybe this is a good sign that ours will be coming soon? 
I received my copy of The Sin in the Steel over the weekend! Thank you 
Has anyone heard anything from Penguin Teen about their ARCs? I claimed points for one and then won another one, and was just wondering if they were getting back to normal yet.

Has anyone received their copy of The Kinder Poison yet? I claimed the book with points when it was available. The publication date is just two weeks away and I donāt have my copy yet! Just wondering if they are out there.
Iām waiting on them too!!
I also used my points to claim a kinder poison and I won goddess in the machine and I still havenāt received any of them.
