Looking for ARC readers for The Century's Last Word

Hey guys! As the title of this post suggests, I am looking for ARC readers for the sequel to The Century's Scribe. I'm doing this because I most likely will not be using NetGalley this time around, as it is a little costly and I imagine I won't get the same requests, as it is a sequel. If you're interested, let me know!
