Stacking the Shelves (26 March 2016)

stacking-the-shelves

(Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews, which is all about sharing the books that you’ve acquired in the past week – ebooks or physical books, and books you’ve bought or borrowed or received an ARC of.)

This week I received two books for review:

A Dictionary of Mutual Understanding by Jackie Copleton

I just loved the sound of the synopsis for this book and knew I had to read it! I hope to get a chance to start reading it soon.

Breaking the Silence by Jo Milne

I was thrilled to receive a copy of this book. I remember watching the video of Jo Milne hearing for the first time on the news a couple of years ago and am really interested to learn more about her life. I’m sure I’ll be reading this very soon, especially as I’m still enjoying non-fiction so much at the moment.


 

I also went on another kindle book buying splurge. Some of these books are new releases and some are in the current sale.

The Primrose Path by Rebecca Griffiths

I’ve seen people tweeting about this book and so couldn’t resist buying it on release day on Thursday. I’m trying to catch up on review books just now but I hope to squeeze this book in very soon!

Beneath the Surface by Heidi Perks

This is another book that I’ve heard so much about on social media and so I pre-ordered it a while ago. It appeared on my Kindle on Thursday morning and I can’t wait to read it!

Still Missing by Beth Gutcheon

I’ve been aware of this novel for a while and knew it was something that I was very interested in reading but I never got around to buying a copy. I happened to see it mentioned in a blog the other day and it spurred me on to just treat myself to a copy. I definitely want to read this one soon.

Hot Milk by Deborah Levy

The premise of this book sounded fascinating to me and I’m keen to read it as soon as I possibly can.

Flawed by Cecelia Ahern

I’m a huge fan of Cecelia Ahern’s novels, I’ve read and loved them all and so when I heard that her next book would be a YA novel I was intrigued. There was no way I was going to be able to resist getting a copy to see what it’s like!

Playthings by Alex Pheby

I heard about this book on social media recently and immediately bought a copy.

The Bucket List to Mend a Broken Heart by Anna Bell (£1.19 in the spring sale)

This sounds like a sweet, light-hearted read.

The Guilty One by Sophie Littlefield (99p in the spring sale)

This book has been on my wish list for a while but I’ve seen mixed reviews so was undecided as to whether I was going to get it or not but then I spotted it in the Kindle spring sale for 99p and figured it was worth taking a chance on for that price! Hopefully I’ll be one of the readers who really enjoys it.

 


 

So, that’s all of my new books from the past week. Have you bought any new books recently? Tell me all in the comments below, or if you have a stacking the shelves post on your blog feel free to post the link below too. 🙂 

My weekly wrap up post will be on my blog tomorrow so please look out for that.

    • I don’t think I’ve ever read anything of hers and I didn’t realise this book had a movie based on it so I will look out for that once I’ve read it. I’ll definitely look out for more of her books now too.

  1. Quite a buying spree! There seem to be loads of great 99p books on Amazon at the moment – or at least ones that temp me and they are hard to resist…enjoy your haul!

    • There are so many book bargains around, I keep trying to stick to only buying books that are already on my wish list but when I keep seeing bargains that look great it’s hard to resist. Thank you 🙂

    • I wish I had more time in the day for reading too – my TBR is growing way faster than I can read. I’ve not heard of Resolution but I will look out for it – I hope you enjoy reading it.
