Filling the Shelf – 68

Filling the Shelf is basically Mailbox Monday or the more recent Stacking the Shelves, but with a title that suits my blog 😀 If you’re interested in joining the fun or seeing what other bloggers added to their shelves, I invite you to visit the current host!

 

Happy Sunday everyone!

First may I remind you of my fabulous YA Summer Giveaway! There’s a few days left to enter, just click on the banner in the sidebar to find out more about it!

And here are the books I received this week. It’s kind of a mix bag, ranging from chicklit to apocalyptic. Variety is fun!

As always, clickety-click on the titles to learn more about the books on Goodreads!

Wife 22 by Melanie Gideon : An online study turning into a personal correspondence for a wife and mother. I might start this one soon!

Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult & Samantha van Leer : Where fiction becomes reality – literally!

The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker : And end-of-the-world kind of scenario, with an 11 year old at the center of it. I’m curious to see how this will go.

Before I Wake by Rachel Vincent : Sixth book in the series. Each book is getting better and better, so I have high hopes.

What did you add to your shelves recently? Have you read one of these two books?

  8. These are amazing books! I love the new one that Picoult did with her daughter, and The Age of Miracles seems like it would be excellent as well. Such great choices for the summer. I hope that you enjoy them all!

  9. Ohh great books! 🙂 I’ve had my eye on Between the Lines for a few weeks. The cover is totally awesome and it sounds like a really great story! I have also seen Before I Wake around a lot, but I haven’t read the rest of the books in the series. Maybe I should get on that!

    Enjoy all your books! 🙂

  10. I’m actually looking forward to Jodi Picoult’s new novel since it’s coauthored with her daughter. The Age of Miracles sounds quite good too!

    Right now I’m reading Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami and just about to finish A Glass of Glass and Velvet by Katherine Howe, which is so, so good.

  11. I’ve been meaning to read the Rachel Vincent series for SO freaking long!! i really have to get to it! Great haul, Kay!
