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,

June, already! The weather has been a bit cool for the season so far, but our yard and the trees are now fully green! We’ve been adding a lot of flowers and bushes too, which is a lot of fun, and we’re having our new shed built this week or the next, if all goes according to plan. It’s quite exciting to see it all come together!

My mailbox is, again, reasonable this week. No new releases, mostly books I’d been wanting to read for a while – or reread, as is the case with Pet Sematary. I’m really curious to see what I’ll think of it now: the last time I read it, in was in French and I was a teenager. I’m pretty sure I’ve forgotten most of it by now!

The Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule – Alice by Christina Henry

Pet Sematary by Stephen King (audio) – Josh & Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating by Christina Lauren

  1. I read The Stranger Beside Me years ago and it was compelling but creepy. I hope you love your new books.

    • That sounds like my kind of book! I’ve been wanting to read it for a long time, I’m really curious about it.

  2. Interesting mix this week. Enjoy 😉

    • Thank you! 🙂

  3. The Josh and Hazel book sounds cute. My GR friends give it 4 and 5 stars so I hope you enjoy it!

    • I’ve heard great things about it!

  4. Alice is dark and tormented – nothing at all like the story it’s based on. I enjoyed it nonetheless. Happy reading!

    • That’s what I heard and what got me interested in this book! Hope I enjoy it too. Thanks for stopping by!

  5. That is an interesting mix. I am always interested in Alice ‘retellings’. Hope you enjoy all of your books.

    • I find them interesting too. Thank you!

  6. I have a friend who read Alice a couple years back and really loved it!

    • I’ve heard it’s quite a different take on the story, I’m really curious about it!
