Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews and Reading Reality, which is all about sharing the books that you’ve acquired in the past week!
It’s been a really busy and chaotic three weeks here so I haven’t done a stacking the shelves in that time. I’ve still been acquiring new books though so here is a haul from the last three weeks!
The Light Between Us by Katie Khan
I was so thrilled to find out that I’d won a giveaway of this book and it made my day when it arrived. It’s a gorgeous hardback, with a crystal and a note from the author. This is a book I will treasure and I can’t wait to read it.
Social Creature by Tara Isabella Burton
I’ve been so keen to read this book so I treated myself a couple of weeks ago and I’m hoping to get to read it soon. It feels like it’s going to be one of those books that once I start it I won’t be able to put it down.
All the Hidden Truths by Claire Askew
I pre-ordered this book and I read it in two sittings as soon as it appeared on my kindle. It was such a compelling and devastating read. It’s very well written and it’s a book that is staying with me so I recommend it.
Dark Pines by Will Dean
I’ve heard so many good things about this book so I finally gave in and bought a copy. I’ve started reading it but it’s been a busy time and I haven’t fully got into it. I’m going to make time to read a chunk of it over the weekend though as I feel sure I will love it.
Skin Deep by Liz Nugent
I love Liz Nugent’s writing, all her novels have been brilliant so I couldn’t resist buying this new one. I hope to have time to sit and read this one very soon.
Lies Between Us by Ronnie Turner
I was super excited to be invited to be on the blog tour for Ronnie’s debut novel and when I got the NetGalley widget emailed to me this week I immediately downloaded it. I’m really looking forward to reading this!
Narcissism for Beginners by Martine McDonagh
Hasn’t this book got such a great cover? I was sent a copy of this to review and I’m planning on reading it in the next couple of weeks. It sounds a bit different to my usual reads and I think I’m going to very much enjoy it.
Love & Fame by Susie Boyt
I jumped at the chance when I was offered a copy of this to review for the blog tour as it sounds like a very me book.
Perfect Liars by Rebecca Reid
I’m so thrilled to have been sent a copy of this book as it sounds like exactly my type of read. I’m really enjoying thrillers at the moment so this definitely won’t be on my TBR for very long at all!
The Last by Hanna Jameson
I’ve seen this book around on social media and have been so keen to get my hands on a copy of it. It was so exciting when the publicist messaged me to offer me a review copy and I can’t wait to read it!
Do Not Disturb by Claire Douglas
I loved Claire Douglas’ first novel and have now got all her other books on my TBR but couldn’t resist when her new novel was sent to me by the publisher. I think this will be a fast-paced read and I can’t wait to get to it!
The Snowman by Michael Morpurgo
I was so intrigued by this new edition of The Snowman as I grew up with the picture book and the gorgeous TV adaptation. I’m really interested to see what the experience of reading a new adaptation as a novel will be. I’m saving this to read on a dull afternoon when I can be all cosy with a blanket and just get lost in this book.
The Flower Girls by Alice Clark-Platts
I requested this on NetGalley as the premise really sounds so good! I was thrilled when I got the approval email and I’m so keen to read it. The book’s not out until next year though so I’m going to try and read some more of 2018’s releases before starting this one.
The Light in the Dark by Horatio Clare
I was delighted to be offered the chance to read this book. It’s a mediation on winter and as soon as I read the blurb it just called to me. I feel like this will be a book that I get a lot out of.
Leave No Trace by Mindy Mejia
I squealed when the publisher emailed me about this book as I loved Mindy Mejia’s previous novel The Last Act of Hattie Hoffman (you can read my review here if you’d like to). I actually started reading this late last night and am sure I’ll be finishing it today!
Histories by Sam Guglani
This book came into my life in a serendipitous way… I’d literally just read a great review of it and knew it was a book that I needed to read and then not two minutes later I saw the publisher offering copies for bloggers to review on twitter! I think this will be a very moving read, but also an important one.
Inhuman Resources by Pierre LeMaitre
I’ve seen this book on social media and have been having serious envy as I love Pierre LeMaitre’s writing. You can just imagine my sheer joy when this gorgeous hardback arrived on my door mat yesterday! This definitely won’t be on my TBR for long, I can’t wait to read it!
Have you got any new books recently? I’d love to know. Have you read any of the books in my book haul? Are there any that you recommend me getting to sooner rather than later? Feel free to leave a link to your own Stacking the Shelves post in the comments! 🙂
Nice bunch of Books to read. Enjoy them. Have a pleasant weekend.
Wow fantastic haul!
I really liked Skin Deep! So dark and disturbing!
Tried to read All the Hidden Truths last week, but it didn’t work for me. Hope you have more luck with it 🙂
Wow! What a haul. There are so many on here that I’d love to read! You’re in for some fabulous reading time!
Oh wow – that’s quite a haul! I am very curious about The Lies Between Us and Social Creature.
Have a wonderful weekend and happy reading.
You’ve got such a lovely lot of books there! And such an interesting variety, too. I hope you’ll enjoy them all, and I look forward to reading what you think of them.
Great haul! So many lovely books, like Skin Deep (I enjoy the author); and All the Hidden Truths. Lies Between Us looks good, too. Enjoy them all, and have a great week.
Ooo, a new Pierre LeMaitre! Enjoy.
Such a wonderful haul! I have recently gotten a copy of Lies Between Us as well. I can’t wait to read that one!
Dark Pines sounds like something I might enjoy. I just went and checked it out on Goodreads. It might end up being a winter read for me. So many good thrillers here. Hope you enjoy them.
Wow wonderful book haul. Several there on my tbr list and I can’t wait to read them.
The Last is a book I REALLY REALLY WANT! 😀
Wow, so many books that I want. lol Hope you enjoy them all.
