Stacking the Shelves (169)/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.
So I had an Amazon order come in this week and although I announced this arrival via Twitter, I had to show it here as well.  I love Thomas Sniegoski's horror books and this one new one from him seems especially tailored for me (even though then it would have been called Atomic Boxer in stoead of Atomic Frenchie).


I had a few requests come in from Netgalley.  I'll be honest, I requested "Red Harvest" some time ago and forgot all about it so I was surprised to see it come through.  Words can't state how thrilled I am to have "The Hollow of Fear" in my possession.  You guys know how much I love this series.  "City of Broken Magic" was featured a few months back on Can't Wait Wednesday and "Like Never and Always" was a complete impulse grab - what can I say? #noexcuse


And then Paul Anka was hungry so I fed my Kindle.  I saw "Broken World" on a Booktube Horror channel and when I went to look it up, it was free, so of course I grabbed it.  I had "Mad Librarian" on my wishlist and saw it offered for free as well one day.  I couldn't resist grabbing "Endal" when it was on sale for $0.99 and I thought "Home is Where the Bark Is" was just a cover change for the author's other dog-centric series but when I figured out it wasn't, I went ahead and grabbed it!


So I'm really excited for all of these.  What books did you guys add this week???

      Uh oh. I might want to kill her then too. Did you know it's basically Walking Dead fan-fiction?

    I'm looking forward to City of Broken Magic too. I feel like I've read something by Sniegoski but I cant think what at the moment😊

      He's got several series out. I love The Demonists and its sequel, but sadly there will be no more books in that series. I think he also does some other graphic novel stuff.

    It is always a surprise to get an approval email about a book you don't remember requesting. I just grabbed Broken World since that sounded good and I like the price :) I hope you enjoy all of your new reads!

    Atomic Frenchie has me really curious, I must say! The Hollow of Fear looks awesome, and so does City of Broken Magic.

      I love the name Pippa. Yep, Paul Anka is my Kindle and is named such after Lorelei's dog on Gilmore Girls - one of my favorite shows.
