Filling the Shelf – 212

Hello all!
Hope you all had a great week. Mine was… eh. Can you believe I got sick with a cold, again? I think I spent maybe 5, 6 days feeling good and then there I was again, caught in a cycle of cough-sleep-sneeze. Ick. I am so, so looking forward to feeling good again. Especially with the weather getting warmer and the projects we have for the rest of the month : my mother coming to visit, as well as a short trip to Florida. I’ve visited a few states in the U.S. before, but Florida is a new one, so this is very exciting!
Got a few new books this week, too. In fact, since next week I’ll be away and won’t be doing a mailbox post, I’m cheating a bit this week by including two books (A Court of Mist and Fury and The Rose & The Dagger) that will arrive this week. On top of that, I caught good deals for my ereader with Be Frank With Me and What Remains of Me, and I heard lots of great things about I Let You Go, so I’m looking forward to this one too. But most importantly, I am super excited about Sleeping Giants, which looks like a ton of fun but also looks absolutely gorgeous in real life, especially once you take its jacket off!
Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Neuvel – Be Frank With Me by Julia Claiborne Johnson – This is Where it Ends by Marieke Nijkamp (audio)
I Let You Go by Clare Mackintosh – Girl in the Blue Coat by Monica Hesse
A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas – What Remains of Me by Alison Gaylin – The Rose & The Dagger by Renée Andieh
What books did you recently add to your shelves?
I hope that’s the last cold you get for a long time! Florida is a beautiful state. I spent a week on the Gulf coast last month – truly wonderful! Enjoy your new books. I read I Let You Go last week – twisty!
Feel better soon and enjoy your trip. It looks like you have some great books to keep your entertained on your way.
Ooh I wonder what the audio will be like of This is Where it Ends!
I hope you feel better soon! I’ve only been to Florida once but i don’t know if it counts because I spent the entire time at Disney. Hope you have a blast!
Lots of good-looking books in your mailbox. I’m eager to start I Let You Go, and catch up Maas’ series. What Remains of Me is new-to-me…must investigate!
Happy reading 🙂
I really want Sleeping Giants. I hope you enjoy it!!
Sorry about your cold.
I hope you like I Let You Go. I like The Girl In The Blue Coat.
ENJOY your trip.
