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 Sunday everyone,

Hope you all had a great week! My week was a bit hard healthwise (rooth canal, antibiotics, stomach bug and so on) and I’m ready for it to be over – but fortunately I had books to keep me company (audioboooks, especially, are a lifesaver!)

And most important of all, I finally posted my Very Late List of Favorite Books of 2018. Go have a look! Two months late, but I still had fun putting it together.

And now, the mailbox. It’s been about 3 weeks since I last shared my newest additions, so this week’s selection is a bit bigger with 8 new books. It’s mostly audiobooks as I’ve been listening to a lot of them while being sick, so I needed to fill my listening queue again!

All This I Will Give to You by Dolores Redondo (audio) – The Lost Man by Jane Harper (audio)  – On the Come Up by Angie Thomas (audio)

A Man Called Ove by Frederik Backman (audio) – Good Omens by Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett (audio)

No One Gets Out Alive by Adam Nevill – Spellslinger by Sebastien de Castell  – Rosewater by Tade Thompson

  1. I’m jealous you got On the Come Up. I loved The Hate U Give. I hope this one is just as good.

    • I hope you get to read it soon! I’m about a quarter of the way in and I like it so far.

  2. I hope you feel better! Thank goodness for books. Enjoy your new ones!

    • Thank you!

  3. Hope you are feeling better! I’ve got my eye on A Man Called Ove, it looks good. Enjoy your books and your week!

    • I’ve heard a lot of great things about A Man Called Ove, I’m really looking forward to it. Thanks for stopping by!

  4. Feel better! You have some good looking books to enjoy. Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.

    • Thank you, and thanks for stopping by!

  5. Glad to see you here. I hope your health is getting better. I almost picked up All This I Will Give to You. I have A Man Called Ove on my audio TBR shelf too. Good Omens and Spellslinger both sound good. Happy Reading/listening!

    • They all sound good, don’t they? Hard to pick one to listen to first! Thank you for stopping by 🙂

  6. I hope you are better soon.

    ENJOY your books and your week. So glad you had audios and books to keep you company while you weren’t feeling too great.

    • Thank you. Audiobooks are perfect when you want to relax but not sleep, really glad I had them!

  7. The Lost man and A man Called Ove are definitely on my ‘to read’ list. I hope you enjoy all your books.

    • Thank you! I finished The Lost Man yesterday and liked it a lot. It’s not as much of a “thriller”as the author’s previous too books but the suspense was still good.

  8. On the Come UP sounds like another good read.

    • I’m about a quarter of the way in and I like it so far! Curious to see where this is going.

  9. I’ve only read A Man called Ove and didn’t enjoy it as much. Hope you like all your books
