Stacking the Shelves (51)

Stacking the Shelves

My iPad is filled with two weeks of irresistible books, most of which are coming out in the fall. But…Rex Regis by L.E. Modesitt Jr. has the dubious distinction of being my book with the latest release date. Next year. And I’ve already read it and written the review. I’m so invested in the series that I couldn’t wait more than a day to dive back in!

Chicago Bear Teddy BearSpeaking of dubious distinctions and irresistibility, I picked one book up from Edelweiss that’s normally totally outside my review range, but it’s about some monsters that I remember. I was a very happy Chicago resident when the 1985 Chicago Bears won Super Bowl XX. I still have a commemorative Chicago Bear teddy bear from that glorious year. I hope the book does justice to just how much fun that season was. We’ll see.

Has anyone else noticed that there aren’t a lot of new books coming out in the next few weeks and then BAM! August 27?

  1. Did you get His Lordship Possessed (Disenchanted & Co. #2) by Lynn Viehl from Netgalley? Yours is the second blog I have seen it on this week. I loved book one and went over to find book two. It was not there. Here is my post: His Lordship Possessed (Disenchanted & Co. #2) by Lynn Viehl

  2. You received a whole lot of interesting books this week! I received His Lordship Possessed this week as well 🙂 That just proves that I’m in one way or the other since I got book 1 a few weeks ago! Patiently waiting for Karina Coopers novella as well! Hope you have a great week!
