Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you’re adding to your shelves, be it buying or borrowing. From ‘real’ books you’ve purchased, a book you’ve borrowed, a book you’ve been given or an e-book they can all be shared!
I probably won’t be doing a Stacking the Shelves post weekly. I just don’t buy quantities of books often enough to make it a regular feature. However, I did just get my hands on a few books that look interesting.
Cinder by Marissa Meyer – I know I’m late on this one but as I have mentioned in my previous post, I tend to be slow to pick up SciFi. I just haven’t always “gotten it.” Cinderella as a cyborg just sounded like too much SciFi for me. Cyborgs? But I finally caved. I downloaded it Thursday night and have been enjoying it. Surprise, Surprise!
The Hazards of Hunting while Heartbroken by Mari Passananti – Summer is coming! I give my last final on Monday and my kids are done as well. This looked like a perfect book for lounging on my deck this summer while I’m avoiding planning for next year. While I hate the term “Chick Lit” I usually find myself gravitating to it at the start of the summer.
Scent of Lilacs by Ann H. Gabhart – Doesn’t that cover just scream “Read me! It’s summer!” More deck reading! Yeah!
And from Netgalley: Tabula Rasa by Kristen Lippert-Martin – More SciFi? Dystopian? A bit of both. I’m looking forward to this one. Sounds like a page turner!
I like the look of your summer reads, the covers are beautiful too!
I was so late on Cinder too… but am still glad I was late to the party. Hoping to get the second book read this week.

Cinder is a great way to dip your toes into the world of sci-fi! It has just a bit but enough enough to overwhelm you. Really glad you’re enjoying it! Happy reading.
The cover for Tabula Rasa creeps me out, haha, it’s the eye! Happy reading! 🙂

I’ve not heard of the other books, but I hope you like Cinder!
The cover art for Scent of Lilacs is very summery, and very beautiful. All of these books are new to me, except Cinder. I look forward to upcoming thoughts on some of these.
