Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Marlene ofย 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.
This week I did much better with my requesting ARCs. 4 books by authors I follow, 1 book from a series I have started, and 1 read now after seeing it highlighted on Brainfluff, Sarah’s blog.ย I received 1 book for upcoming blog tour, and added 5 audiobooks (novellas from audible plus that were expiring and I have already listened to them). The ebooks were already on my TBR. Let’s see what the damage to my TBR shelf is this week.ย
Netgalley: 5 ebooks
Blog Tours: 1 ebook
Edelweiss: 1 ebookย
Library, KU, purchases: Nothing this week
Audible Plus: 3 Short Stories, plus 5 Novellas all of which I have already listened to.
ย
Not too many additions to my TBR shelf this week. This week, I only added 7 ARCs to my shelves, much better than I did in the previous weeks. I did download 8 items from Audible Plus, but I already listened to all of them, but technically, it was 15 additions in total to my TBR mountain. I am on track to read/listen to 19 books/audiobooks (5 novellas, 3 short stories), so my TBR mountain shrinks a little bit.
What did you add to you shelves this week?

You have really pared down how many books you take. And youโve got some very good looking books in that pile. Enjoy!

I already have the Beth Moran and Fiona Leitch, Carla. I think I am managing to keep my tbr pile reasonably level . . . although it is some 20 books more than it was earlier in the year. I have given up trying not to request . . . it doesn’t work unless I stay right off NG, which means not posting reviews. ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐๐ enjoy your new reads.

I think that is the only reason I only had 5 from NG this week, I didn’t look. The ones I added were from other people’s posts or reviews. ๐๐๐

I liked those romance shorts. My favorites were from CLo and Jimenez. Very solid reads for something so short.

I have listened to the first three and really liked them. I hope to post mini reviews for them tonight and then listen to the other three over the next few days while doing things around the house. I enjoyed all three so far.

Such a great selection! I’m definitely tempted by the Judy Leigh title as I love her writing style. I hope you will enjoy them all!

I just requested Judy Leigh’sโand Rebecca Raisin’s books from your pile. I’m hoping they’ll come through for me. All of your books sound good, Carla.

Thanks, Nicki. I already listened to the first three in the series, including The Worst Wingman and really enjoyed them. They are fun short stories that I listened to while working outside and cleaning out cupboards.
