Filling the Shelf – 236
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!)
Hello everyone and Happy New Year!
I hope you all had a great holiday season! Here it’s been a quiet one, and I still don’t feel quite ready to leave it behind after having such a nice and relaxing time!
However, I am ready to start another great year of reading 🙂
I was very lucky again this year, and received many books and gift cards for Christmas. I also brought a small pile of books home from the sales, because I couldn’t resist. Which is why this week and next week’s mailboxes are so big! This week is all about the gifts I got, I feel very fortunate.
I wish you all the best – happiness, health and love – for 2017, and I’ll see you again soon with my best of 2016!
Les Parisiennes: How the Women of Paris Lived, Loved and Died Under Nazi Occupation by Anne Sebba – The Romanovs: 1613-1918 by Simon Sebag Montefiore
Kill the Next One by Federico Axat (audio) – The Invasion of the Tearling and The Fate of the Tearling by Erika Johansen (I only had an ebook for The Invasion, so I’m happy to finally have physical copies of the whole series!)
The Magician King and The Magician’s Land by Lev Grossman
Passenger and Wayfarer by Alexandra Bracken – Truthwitch by Zoe Whittall
What books did you recently add to your shelves?
Les Parisiennes looks like a book I might enjoy. Thanks for sharing, and enjoy them all!
Here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
When I was in high school and college, I was fascinated by the Romanovs so I’d be interested in that book. Happy New Year!
I love the covers of Passenger and Wayfarer. Hope they are fantastic reads!
What wonderful gifts. (My family refuses to give me books even though that’s my wish list. 🙁 They think I have too many already.)
There are several tempting series.
Happy New Year and Happy Reading!
Very nice mailbox!!
Les Parisiennes looks good.
Lots of gorgeous covers.
Have a great reading week.

My Mailbox Monday
Awesome haul! I really want to read the Anne Sebba, but it had fallen off my radar. I must remedy that!
Lots of fun new reads! I am curious about the Grossman series…I’ve been thinking about trying it out for a while! And I love the Brackman covers! Have fun!
