Stacking the Shelves (139)/Sunday Post

Stacking the Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves or TBR piles, may it be physical or virtual.  This means you can include books you buy in a physical store, online, books you borrow from the library or friends, review books, gifts and of course, ebooks! The original meme was started over at Tynga's Reviews. And it now has a new co-host where individuals can link up as well - Marlene from Reading Reality.  Clicking on the book (or title) should take you to the Goodreads page.  I'm also now linking up with the Sunday Post which is hosted by Kimberly@Caffeinated Book Reviewer. 
I ended up grabbing some books from Amazon this week on sale.  I've heard some good things about "Jade City" so when I got an email Friday that it was on sale for $2.99 I went ahead and grabbed it.  "The Ripper's Shadow" is a book I've been meaning to read all year and even though my library has it, it was on sale for $0.99 so I figured  it was worth it.  Finally "Demon Dog" was a total impulse but for $0.99 as well.


I also received three books from Netgalley and the publishers.  I'm thrilled to have "Pick and Chews" especially since it's a series I'm current on and I featured it on a Can't Wait Wednesday post a few weeks ago.  "The Dogs of Camelot" looks right up my alley and pretty interesting to boot.  I used to love werewolf books but really haven't read any in ages so I'm hoping "Wolf Blood" rekindles my love of them.


What did you add to your shelves this week???

    Jade City sounds like it could be really good, I'm hoping to find some time this Christmas break to read it too!

    I used to read a lot of werewolf books but the urban fantasy ones recently are PNR wolfathons!

      I like Patricia Briggs' werewolves but you know me and romance. I like my werewolves mean and nasty (most of the time) just like I do my vampires.

    Pick and Chews has a fun cover. Hey, if you haven't already give a listen to Sia's Christmas song, Puppies are Forever. I think you'll love it :-)

    The Dogs of Camelot interests me. Actually all the dogs over the years the presidents have had would be an interesting read. Have fun with all your books.

      I actually think there is a book similar to what you mentioned. I recall seeing something like it on Book Outlet once.

    I LOVE werewolves! They're my favorite paranormal creature. My favorite books with them are Blood and Chocolate and The Mayfair Moon trilogy. But I'm definitely going to see if Wolf Blood is something I'd like to read. :)

      I think they are my favorite paranormal creature too - although I have to admit gargoyles also hold a special place in my heart...and witches. Oh well, they are one of my faves.

    I've head lots of good reports of Jade City so I look forward to reading your review for that one. And I would also fancy the Ripper book - something about that period just appeals to me.

    Looks like a nice haul. And I'm not at all surprised to see so many doggie covers on your list. I've started thinking of you every time I come across a book featuring a dog.

    Have a great week. - Katie

    I would've snagged The Ripper's Shadow for $0.99 too. I'm always a sucker for Jack the Ripper stuff.
