Filling the Shelf – 180

Filling the Shelf simply is Mailbox Monday, 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, click away! (but beware, visiting other mailboxes will probably add to your neverending wishlist!)

Good Monday dear people!

I can’t believe how fast the last week went by! Lots of work, plus the weather went from complete summer heat to perpetual autumn rains in a matter of days. I prefer the rain, myself, though I’ll miss our sunny dinners on our roof’s terrace.

New books in all formats came in this week. The big surprise for me was The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson: I got the audio, started listening… listened… listened some more… and then it was over. I haven’t gone through audiobooks this quickly very often, but this one was really entertaining. Very noir, with a few surprises but mostly captivating writing and a really good narration, both by the author and the readers. I’ll try and post a review soon – after all, it’s a perfect selection for the R.I.P. challenge!

The Kind Worth Killing by Perter Swanson (audio) – Not a Drop to Drink by Mindy McGinnis

Pretty Baby by Mary Kubica (audio) – Sugar by Deirdre Riordan Hall

The Invasion of the Tearling by Erika Johansen – The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker
