Filling the Shelf – 204
Welcome to Filling the Shelf, or as many of you know it, Mailbox Monday! 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 everyone!
Hope you all had a great week! Mine was quiet on the work front, which allowed me to work on a few personal projects as well as read a lot. This week I read more books than I added to my shelves, so I would say things are slowly balancing out again! I’ve noticed over the years that when I’m reading a lot, I’m not buying/adding as many books; on the opposite, when my reading is slower, more books find their way into our home.
But always, I enjoy rearranging my shelves – I worked on part of them this week, and managed to clear out a good dozen of books, which feels good! Both for the space I created and for the possibility of other readers enjoying them, hopefully even more than I did.
Here are this week’s books : they’re mostly long wished for fantasy novels (I heard so much good about Schwab’s books, and having now read 100+ pages of A Darker Shade of Magic, I can see why! ), and one audiobook mystery. (It’s all so orange, I love it!)
The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon and The Passenger by Lisa Lutz (audio)
A Darker Shade of Magic and A Gathering of Shadows by V. E. Schwab
What books did you recently add to your shelves?
I loved The Passenger…and I’m curious about The Mime Order. Enjoy the new week, and thanks for visiting my blog.
The covers of the Schwab books are fabulous!
It does feel good to let go of some books and I bet your shelves are gorgeous. Do you arrange by color? Glad you’re enjoying the Schwab books so far. I have The Passenger on audio too- must listen soon!
Happy reading and happy spring!
Happy reading. Looks like you got some great reads.
The covers of the Schwab books are so whimsical 🙂
I really liked A Darker Shade of Magic! I must get to the sequel. Hope you enjoy your new books!
