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 or winning through Goodreads giveaways, with the occasional store bought physical book thrown in.
On that note, here are the books I picked up this week. I will be separating the books based on purchased, Goodreads wins, and freebies. Let's go!
Purchased
One of Us is Dead by Jeneva Rose - I got this for the bargain price of just $1.99.
Stolen Tongues by Felix Blackwell - I got this for a mere $0.99. I've heard it's a really good horror book, so I hope I wasn't lied to.
Darker by E.L. James - I grabbed this on sale for just $1.99. I know these books aren't particularly well written, but when I read the original series years ago, I wanted Christian's POV, so now I can read it.
Freed by E.l. James - I grabbed this for a mere $1.99 too, so I have the full Christian's POV trilogy. Now I just gotta' read them.
The Daughter of Doctor Moreau by Silvia Moreno-Garcia - I got this on sale for just a mere $1.99. I read another book by her and I've had my eye on this one for a while, so getting it on sale was nice.
Delicious Monsters by Leslie Sambury - I got this on sale for a mere $1.99. It first caught my eye when it was available for free through Epic Reads, but I ran out of time to read it that month.
Of Jade and Dragons by Amber Chen - I got this on sale for just $1.99. The cover was just so appealing.
The Monkey's Paw and Other Tales by W.W. Jacobs - I grabbed this on sale for just $3.99. I'm mildly familiar with the tale of the monkey's paw, and now I can get real familiar.
The Wizard of Oz: The Official Cookbook by Elena Craig and Emma Bernay - I grabbed this on sale for just $4.99. The Wizard of Oz was my favorite movie when I was growing up, so I'm excited to dive into this cookbook.
The Unofficial Simpsons Cookbook by Laurel Randolph - I got this on sale for just $1.99. Who wouldn't want a Simpson's cookbook?
It's a Date (Again) by Jeneva Rose - I got this for $4.99, but it only cost me $3.99 because I had a dollar credit for something. I haven't read romance from Jeneva Rose, but now I can.
The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green - I grabbed this for just $1.99. I've heard good things about John Green's non-fiction work.
Dreams of Joy by Lisa See - I got this on sale for just $1.99. I read Shanghai Girls and really enjoyed it, so I'm excited to get into this sequel.
Abandon by Blake Crouch - I managed to grab this for the sale price of $1.99. After reading Dark Matter, I'm buying basically everything I find on sale by Blake Crouch.
The I Inside by Alan Dean Foster - I got this on sale for just $2.99. Foster is one of the classic sci-fi authors that one of my parents read a lot of. I just hope this aged better than Stranger in a Strange Land by Heinlein.
The Islam Quintet by Tariq Ali - I got this on sale for just $3.99. I'm never mad about getting over 1500 pages of reading for just $4.
The Senator's Wife by Liv Constantine - I grabbed this book because I've heard a lot of good things about this author and it was on sale for just $1.99. I'm not mad about that.
Cat-A-Lyst by Alan Dean Foster - I got this for the bargain price of just $3.99, again because I know at least one of my parents like Alan Dean Foster as an author.

I was supposed to be getting all caught up on my Stacking the Shelves post with my newest ebook purchases and wins after having like four different free book blasts happen just before the last one was posted, and I didn't get that done, because I spent most of today out of the house doing things with my husband and son. So now the goal is to get caught up with this next week in my STS post. We'll see if I can follow through.
Have you read any of the books on my list this week? Any of them you think I should read sooner rather than later?
If you're stopping by from the linkup, please be sure to drop a link to your post below so I can check out your new pretties. - Katie
Holy Cow! You won all of those with Goodreads?! That's insane! I'm lucky when I win once a year! Lol. I'm actually still waiting on my recent win from Goodreads that was a month and a half ago. I wasn't sure when to reach out to them as I read in three different places on Goodreads three different lengths of time to wait before reaching out to them. One period has passed, the second is nearing and I think I'm a ways from the third so I don't know what to do! Lol. I'll probably try sooner rather than later since the book was an ARC of a book for August I think. So yeah, that's coming up sooner than I thought! Lol.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy all of your fantastic new reads!
