Stacked (108)
Inspired by Pop Culture Junkie and The Story Siren, Stacked is a weekly post where I share with you the books that I’ve bought, borrowed or received for the week.
Hello! This weekend is a holiday weekend in observance of Memorial Day. I don’t have any big plans this weekend. I am usually visiting my family for Memorial Day but my parents are not going to be in town so I decided to stay put. I’ve been trying to catch up on some reading and sleeping. I did get to see the X-Men movie last night though, which I really enjoyed. They were always my favorite superhero comic as a kid and I am partial to them.
This week’s book haul is pretty tame. I did make a stop at the library and got a couple of e-books. I really do love the library. It’s like shopping without having to pay. :)
How The Scoundrel Seduces by Sabrina Jeffries – Received this book for review from Edelweiss. It’s been a while since I’ve read a good historical romance and I am fan of Jeffries. Hope to start this one soon.
And All the Stars by Andrea K. Höst – Picked up this sci-fi YA book after reading a review on The Midnigh Garden. I don’t read many indie books but this one has a lot of good reviews so crossing fingers it’s good.
Shadow Kin by M.J. Scott – My local library has a pretty sad sci-fi/urban fantasy section. I feel this is often the case with libraries and they don’t often know where to place certain books. But I was browsing the other day and found this series by MJ Scott. I don’t know a lot about it but have seen it around and am going to give it a try. The library also had the 2 other books in the series, which I’ll go back for if this is good.
Grasshopper Jungle by Andrew Smith – I was happy to find a copy of Grasshopper Jungle in the YA new releases section. Excited about this one.
The Here and Now by Ann Brashares – Another find from the library. Love the cover to this one and of course, it’s Ann Brasheres so I think I will like it.
The Pastry Queen – Cookbook I’ve been meaning to try. My local branch doesn’t really get a ton of new cookbook releases. This is an older one but one I’ve been meaning to check out and I was happy to find it.
