Stacking the Shelves (#150)


Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews, in which bloggers share the books and swag they've received in the past week!


So, what did I get in the week of Sunday, November 1st to Saturday, November 7th?


(all links to Goodreads are provided!)


In the mail:



From NetGalley:


Thicker than Water by Brigid Kemmerer

YAY for a new Brigid book!


From Edelweiss:


Dirty Deeds by Megan Erickson

I really enjoyed Dirty Thoughts and Dirty Talk. :)


The Skylighter by Becky Wallace

The Storyspinner was such a great fantasy debut! So excited for this sequel.


The Rogue by Katharine Ashe

EASILY my top 2016 historical romance anticipated read (The Sea King by C.L. Wilson takes top romance novel in general).


Soooo many review books this week. O_O But I'm really excited about all of them! Happy November, everyone. :)

    I'm kinda excited for the Sea King as well, even though I was a little "meh" about the first book in the series. The Rogue by Katharine Ashe also looks good. I love Ashe's writing.

      YES! Well, I LOVED The Winter King, but I'm glad that you're also excited about The Sea King. :D Katharine Ashe is one of the best!

    I'm reading Skylight right now, and IT IS SO GOOD. Apparently it's a duology, not a trilogy :0

    Looks like some good books! Thicker Than Water's cover is awesome! I had to go back and see if the author was K A Tucker! She has a book very similar to it! Let us know if it's any good!
    Enjoy!

    Placebo Junkies and These Shallow Graves look really good! I got an e-galley that's also entitled Thicker Than Water, but it's by a different author - Kelly Fiore. Hope both are good though.

    Enjoy your books. Happy reading!

    I was excited to see a Brigid Kemmerer book on Netgalley! I requested it, so *fingers crossed* I haven't read Dirty Thoughts or Dirty Talk yet, but I DID just meet Cal and Brent in Make it Right. :)

    Happy reading!

    Oh, lovely haul!! I got two of the ones you did from Random House (These Shallow Graves and Unforgiven) and I am so excited to read These Shallow Graves. I read Placebo Junkies, and it was pretty good. Definitely unique! Thicker Than Water looks really good too. Hope you enjoy them all, and have a fabulous week :D

      I might not end up reading any of those three hardcovers, given that they were unsolicited. ^_^ Thank you, Shannon!
