Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Marlene of Reading Reality. Itโs all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in a physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, books for review from authors, Netgalley, Edelweiss or publishers, as well as gifts or books you won. If you click on the covers, it will take you to Goodreads, if it is on there.ย
Well, one of my goals for 2023 was to request fewer ARCS, and I did, but several pending requests were approved this week, as well as a couple of widgets. Last week I added 11 books for my TBR shelf, this week I added 9 books/audiobooks, so not quite as bad. I have 22ย books/audiobooks pending between Netgalley and Edelweiss, so I won’t run out of things to read or listen to.
Netgalley: 2 Books
Blog Tour: 1 Book
Amazon, Library (got a few from the library for my 12 friends challenge, and wanted to catch up on a cozy series before the blog tour): 2 Books, 4 Audiobooks
Nothing else new from Edelweiss, Audible or Scribd, so that’s it for this week. I added 9 new books Mount TBR.๐ต๐ฌ I am on track to read or listen to only 7 novels/audiobooks this week, so my TBR mountain grew a little bit this week.ย
What did you add to your shelves this week? Do any of these books appeal to you?

I got Exiles as an ARC, but haven’t read the first two, so I am happy that my library had the audiobooks. I’m glad to hear that it is enjoyable.

The Basset hound is…well, he’s a well drawn basset hound so he’s adorable! I’m sure I would enjoy Lisa Wingate’s The Prayer Box.

The Prayer Box is a recommendation from my 12 friends challenge. It is the first in a trilogy, so if I like it, I have 2 more to read.

I read a lot of historical fiction, especially set around the World Wars, so it is nice to find one with a different take.
