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!
Books I Borrowed This Week
Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson
I borrowed this audio book from Scribd as part of my free trial and I adored it. It’s such a brilliant book and I’ve now added it to my wish list to remind me that I must get hold of a print copy for my bookcase.
Milkman by Anna Burns
I do already own this in print but I’d heard it was a good book to listen to so I borrowed it from Scribd and am very much enjoying it. I think this could be a five star read!
ARCS I Was Sent This Week
The July Girls by Phoebe Locke
It was a brilliant surprise last Saturday to received a leaflet with a bracelet about the magpie choosing me. Then in the week a copy of The July Girls arrived! This book sounds like my kind of read so I can’t wait to get to it!
The Wayward Girls by Amanda Mason
I read a sample of this a little while ago and have been keen to read more ever since so I was delighted to be sent an auto-approval link for NetGalley yesterday!
Those People by Louise Candlish
I love Louise Candlish’s writing so I immediately requested this one when I spotted it on NetGalley! I know I’ll enjoy this book.
As Long As We Both Shall Live by JoAnn Chaney
I saw this in the Read Now section of NetGalley this week and it sounds so gripping and fast-paced that I couldn’t resist downloading it!
What Dementia Teaches Us About Love by Nicci Gerrard
I downloaded this one from NG too. I know what it is to care for a loved one who is losing themselves so am very interested in this book. I need to be in the right frame of mind to read this but hopefully I can read it soon.
I Want You Gone by Miranda Rijks
I downloaded this one from NG on a whim as the blurb just grabbed me! I don’t think I’ll be long getting to this one as I’m must in the mood for fast-paced thrillers.
The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted by Robert Hillman
I didn’t realise how many books I’d got from NG this week until I started writing this post! This was another one I downloaded on a whim… this time because I love the title!
Sister of Mine by Laurie Petrou
I’m going to be on the blog tour for this book in a few weeks time so will definitely be reading this NG book soon.
The Forgotten Sister by Caroline Bond
I’m also on the blog tour for this one and am really keen to read it as soon as I can.

Fab haul! I got the email for The Wayward Girls it looks good.
Wow! What a great haul.
I kinda want to read all of these. Making a list, ha!
Great haul! I’ve been tempted by most of these on Netgalley as well, although somehow I managed to resist requesting this time around… Or at least for now. 😉
I can’t wait to read Those People, currently waiting on my ARC shelf. I am curious about Milkman. Enjoy, and here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
Hope you love these books!
I received a magnificent proof of The Wayward Girls by Amanda Mason and I can’t wait to dive in! I really need to read Louise Candlish’s books, they sound so good! Happy reading xx
A great haul, Hayley:))
The July Girls sounds pretty good! I hope you enjoy your new books. Happy reading!

I really enjoyed Sister of Mine when I read it, but it is not a happy story, that’s for sure. Some great ones here that I now will be checking out, not that I need to add anymore. 😃📚
