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!
You Can Trust Me by Emma Rowley
This book surprised me when it appeared on my Kindle, I’d completely forgotten that I’d pre-ordered it a while ago. It was a lovely surprise and I’m really looking forward to reading this thriller. This is about a woman with an online persona that is removed from her real life and the cracks that begin to show when a ghostwriter starts working with her to write her story. It sounds so good!
Motherwell by Deborah Orr
I spotted this book on a Kindle daily deal this week and I was so interested read this memoir about a mother and a daughter and what happens when the daughter tries to break free that I had to one-click! I’m keen to read this one but need to be in the right frame of mind.
Just Mercy by Bryan A. Stevenson
I borrowed the audio book of this non-fiction about a young lawyer and the American justice system this week and am already part-way through listening to it. It’s heart-rending at times but one of those books that is so well written that you just want to keep going. I’m so glad I got to read this one.
Heatwave by Kate Riordan
I bought this book on a total whim as the cover really drew me in. The blurb sounds so good too – it’s set in an old house during a hot summer where old secrets begin to come to light and it sounds perfect for this time of year. I can’t wait to read this one!
Have you acquired any new books this week? I’d love to know what you got. Or have you read any of my new books and recommend I get to any of them sooner rather than later? If you’ve shared a book haul post this week then please feel free to share you link below and I’ll make sure to visit your post! 🙂

Spooky haul 🙂 I hate it when people say ‘you can trust me’… it makes me feel wary of them, and that they just might not be trustworthy.
Have a fantastic weekend and happy reading.
I know what you mean about people who say you can trust them, it does make me suspicious. Hope you have a fab weekend too. 🙂
Nice! I’m tempted by the Orr myself!
I’m really looking forward to reading it, it sounds such an interesting book.
You’ve got some good ‘uns there, Hayley. And I know the feeling about books that may be heartbreaking, but that you really can’t stop reading. I’m tempted by the Stevenson, as I do like those sorts of memoirs. It made me think a bit of Scott Turow’s, One L: The Turbulent True Story of a First Year at Harvard Law School . Have you read that one? If you haven’t, I recommend it.
Thanks for that recommendation – I’d not heard of the book but I’ve added it to my wishlist now and will look out for it. I’ve finished Bryan Stevenson’s book now and it was excellent, I recommend it.
Nice haul! The Heat Wave has me curious.
I bought John Marr’s latest book, I’m very excited about it! Happy reading! x
I hope you enjoy it. 🙂 I haven’t read his previous book yet so must try and catch up as I do enjoy his writing. Happy reading to you too 🙂 x
Great list! I’m intrigued by Motherwell. Hope you enjoy them:)
Thank you. Motherwell does sound interesting, doesn’t it?
Enjoy your books. I am curious about Motherwell. Here are my WEEKLY UPDATES
Thank you 🙂
Some intriguing books here. I have NOTHING new in this week, shockingly!
Sorry I’m late to reply – you’ve done really well to have a week with no new books! I’ve lost all my willpower to resist buying books.
Ooh, these are all new to me, but I’m intrigued by Just Mercy. Sounds like you’re enjoying it!
Here’s my weekly roundup!
Just Mercy is an excellent book, I definitely recommend it.
Great haul! I hope you will enjoy these. xx
Thank you 🙂 xx
