Stacking The Shelves is 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 physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! And audiobooks. Don’t forget audiobooks!
In other words, if you can read it or if it can be read to you – no matter how you got it – it belongs in Stacking the Shelves.
The Stacking the Shelves meme was originally hosted at Team Tynga’s Reviews. It is currently hosted by Reading Reality.
Happy Saturday everyone! I hope your weekend is going well. I am getting ready to take off to the Oregon coast for a few days this week. We haven’t been there is a couple of years and I have missed it. Hopefully I will find the time to read while I am gone. It will be a bit of a scramble to get posts written before I go though. Sometimes the wifi and signals are a bit weak where we stay, so I don’t want to depend on it.
Library books I have added to my bedside stack
I did go to the library this week, but just to return two books. I did wander around the display tables, but nothing really caught my eye this week. As I was wondering the stacks though, I did have the thought that they really should display more books. Unless you are looking for a particular title or author, it is hard to find something. Just looking at the spines is not very enticing. 🙁
ARCs I’ve added to my Netgalley account
Only one ARC added this week, but one that I am so excited to read. I have really enjoyed The *Thursday Murder Club series and I am glad we finally are getting a new one. The Impossible Fortune comes out in September, so I should be reading it sometime this summer. This one has a wedding in it, though I can’t remember for sure who is getting married. But of course there will be lots of mayhem involved, but nothing this group of octanagerians can’t handle.
Audiobooks
Tress of the Emerald Sea is a book I have had on my TBR since before it was even published. I’m not sure why I haven’t picked it up before now, but I finally have it loaded on my Libby app and I am ready to start it as soon as I am done with my current read. It has been awhile since I read a book by Sanderson, but I usually always enjoy them. They have a guy, Michael Kramer, doing the audiobook, which is an interesting choice considering that it is a female main character. But he has a lovely voice, so I don’t think it will be a problem.
Looking forward to seeing what others have added to their stacks this week. Until next time…

I’m really looking forward to the new Richard Osman. I didn’t really enjoy We Solve Murders but I can’t wait to be back with The Thursday Murder club.
I definitely agree that libraries should display more books. It’s difficult to be inspired by shelves of spines

I thought We Solve Murders was ok, but I also prefer the Thursday Murder Club. My library certainly has the shelf space to show the cover of the books. Not sure why they don’t!

Mine doesn’t really but could have a couple more outward facing displays
