This is Stacking the Shelves, my chance to scream OMG!
That’s not supposed to be the actual purpose of the meme. It’s supposed to be an opportunity to show the books we bought, borrowed, received or that somehow arrived on our doorsteps, whether they may or may not get reviewed (hosted by Tynga’s Reviews). This way, everything gets its chance in the spotlight.
But I spent last week at my mom’s. So I did a LOT of late night, insomniac reading. And browsing the shelves of Amazon from my iPad. And browsing NetGalley from my iPad. At 2 am, everything looks good.
The joy of an iPad, or any other ereader, is that I used to read an entire suitcase of books on one of these trips, and require an emergency run to the local Barnes and Noble mid-trip. My mom has never understood.
Middle of the night shopping from the comfort of my bed is much, much easier. And requires no explanation. The results, however, are almost overwhelming. Obviously I was trying to escape into books!
Looks like I’ll be escaping into this batch for the next several months!

I love Royal Scan. The only problem was the length. It was much too short. After I saw your list I went over to NetGalley and requested Thief Of Shadows and I was trying to read down my TBR pile.

I was trying to get my NetGalley queue down, and one night I just blew it. But there were so many things I was looking for, like Thief, and the new Cindy Pape book. I’ve never read Gina Koch, and everyone raves, so I decided to try Scam. I’m looking forward to it.

That’s a huge batch of books! I haven’t heard of any of them, though, so I can’t really say anything about whether or not you may like them. But they all looks just absolutely AWESOME!

Wow you got a lot of reads. I have never been good at reading on vacations or trips, I will maybe read 1 book. I’m a home reader, not a vacation reader.
Happy Reading

NetGalley is SO dangerous! Late night browsing is even more dangerous! I hope you enjoy all your books and find the time to read them.

You have one of the most beautiful book piles that I have ever seen.
I can’t wait to see what you thought of all those lovely reads that you have.
I knew from the start that we had to be kindred spirits. I have 19 books in my pile this week.

Nice haul of books
You went crazy on Netgalley, didn’t you? I have that sometimes as well! Thanks for pointing out The Sweetest Dark – now I had to request that one as well. I fell completely in love with the cover. Awesome haul of books but I don’t know how/when you’ll find the time to read them all!
Enjoy reading!
