Stacking The Shelves is a feature/weekly meme run by Reading Reality in which you share the books you are adding to your shelves, both physical and virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical stores or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!
Now, I already have a monthly post I do featuring the books I get in the mail (and it's a lot because I have a serious Goodreads First Reads giveaway addiction), and I'm posting my monthly Read-A-Thon posts again too, which covers the books I receive through Netgalley. So my STS post will feature all the books I've been one-clicking on Amazon, winning through Goodreads First Reads Giveaways, and the few books I buy at the store during the week.
On that note, here are the books I picked up this week. The books will be sorted based on how I obtained them. I will have an extra section this week dedicated to the books that I picked up at the Basecamp Books and Adventure 2-Year Anniversary sale. Let's go.
Purchased
Nazi Germany and the Jews: The Years of Persecution, 1933-1939 by Saul Friedlander - I got this on sale for just $3.99. Those who don't remember history are doomed to repeat it.
The Fall of the House of Usher: TV Tie-in Edition by Edgar Allan Poe arranged by Mike Flanagan - I got this on sale for just $1.99. It's been a while since I read the collected works of Edgar Allan Poe, but The Fall of the House of Usher is one of my comfort shows on Netflix, so I want to revisit the stories and poems the inspired it.
Practical Magic for Beginners by Maggie Haseman - I got this on sale for a mere $2.99. I started a cult at one of my book club meetings last weekend, and see some potential for this to help me really get things off the ground.
Melissa Explains It All by Melissa Joan Hart - I grew up watching Clarissa Explains It All on Nickelodeon, as well as Sabrina the Teenage Witch on ABC (I think), so getting Melissa's memoir for just $2.99 really felt like a steal.
Secrets of Rose Briar Hall by Kelsey James - I got this on sale for just $2.99 because the cover just really appealed to me.
Forever, Interrupted by Taylor Jenkins Reid - I bought the physical copy of this at Target because I needed to kill some time on Thursday waiting for a tow truck after doing dinner with a friend.
Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution by Cat Bohannon - I got this at Target on Thursday too because it just sounds interesting.
A People's History of the Vampire Uprising by Raymond A. Villareal - I got this on sale for just $1.99, also partially because of the cult I started at book club last weekend.
Cross My Heart by Megan Collins - I paid full price for this one at Barnes and Noble when I was there for a book club meeting because I need it for a different book club meeting coming up this month.
Go Luck Yourself by Sara Raasch - I grabbed this at Barnes and Noble because it was a BOGO 1/2 price book.
Clown in a Cornfield by Adam Cesare - This cover really appealed to me while I was browsing at Barnes and Noble before my book club meeting, and it was also a BOGO 1/2 price book.

Wiccapedia Journal: A Book of Shadows by Shawn Robbins and Leanna Greenaway - This one was only a dollar before the discount (I'm not sure the discount applied to this book though as it was already greatly reduced).
Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix - This is the only book I paid "full" price for at the sale, because it's new and I need it for a book club meeting later this year. And during the anniversary sale, it was 20% off. All the other books listed were used and on sale for 30% off their ticketed price. I made out like a bandit at this sale.
So that's all the new books I've added to my shelves this past week. Now I just gotta' find some time to read them.
Any of these books I should move higher up my TBR possibility pile? What new books did you add to your shelves this week?
