Stacking The Shelves is feature/weekly meme created by Tynga’s Reviews in which you share the books you are adding to your shelves, both physical and virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical stores or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!

Curly Carla’s Haul

(All Ebooks unless otherwise specified)

I only have one book because….I don’t know why. I just haven’t felt the urge to read that much.

Books I Purchased:

• Rebel Heir (Rush Series Duet #1) by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward.PS I already finished it because it was pretty  great. Can’t wait for the next one to come out.

Lenoreo’s Haul

(All Ebooks unless otherwise specified)

NetGalley ARC Requests Approved:

• Hot Asset (21 Wall Street #1) by Lauren Layne from Montlake Romance — releases May 22nd, 2018.
• Three Day Fiancée (Animal Attraction #2) by Marissa Clarke from Entangled: Lovestruck (Entangled Publishing, LLC) — releases May 14th, 2018.
• I Think I Love You (Oxford #5) by Lauren Layne from Loveswept (Random House Publishing Group – Loveswept) — releases July 17th, 2018.  I adore this story and can’t WAIT to read Brit and Hunter’s story!
• Royally Hung by Anne Marsh from InterMix (Berkley Publishing Group) — releases May 22nd, 2018.  What can I say?  I feel like I’m on a royalty kick lately.

Preorders That Went Live:

• Her Forbidden Love Match (Willow Cove #1) by Theresa Paolo — released April 23rd, 2018.  This one sounded so cute, and I love me a preorder sale!  Scored this one for 99 cents!

Gifted/Won It:

• Girl, Wash Your Face: Stop Believing the Lies About Who You Are So You Can Become Who You Were Meant To Be by Rachel Hollis, narrated by Rachel Hollis — So this author will be one of the keynote speakers at Book Bonanza, and my peep Caylie LOVES her!  Now, I’m not really a non-fiction kind of girl, but I kind of wanted to give it a shot since it was so highly recommended.  And since I still had my free book from Audible, Caylie gifted it to me!!  Yay!!

Got It On Sale:

• Even on the Darkest Night by Allie Martin — So we were actually approached about ARCs for this book (because I know the author), and while I have no problem abusing NetGalley and not getting those books read in time, I can’t do it with actual authors, so I was honest and said I couldn’t get to it until after July.  But then I got her newsletter and it was on sale for $1.99 from its usual $3.99, so I snagged it!  I love this new cover too!  No longer on sale.
• Defy the Stars (Defy the Stars #1) by Claudia Gray — This one is all Katie @Just Another Girl and Her Books’s fault…she mentioned this sale on her April 14th Stacking the Shelves, so I snagged it for $1.99 (regular $8.99, no longer on sale)!  Thanks for enabling me Katie!
• The Allure of Julian Lefray (The Allure #1) by R.S. Grey — This is an author that I have yet to read who will be at Book Bonanza.  So when I saw this on BookBub, on sale for free from its usual $3.99, I one-clicked!  No longer on sale.
• Dead of Winter (Aspen Falls #1) by Melissa Pearl & Anna Cruise — I actually read an ARC of this book and really enjoyed it (see my review here), so when I saw in Ms. Pearl’s newsletter that it was on sale for $2.99 from its usual $4.99, I snagged it.  It’s at $3.99 right now.
• Lingus by Mariana Zapata — This is another author who will be at Book Bonanza, and I recently started reading her.  I am mostly really enjoying her books, so when I saw this one features on The Rock Stars of Romance: Rock Report for 99 cents, I snagged it.  Looks like that’s the regular price, but whatevs!
• Nikan Rebuilt (Preload #3) by Scarlett Cole — I actually have a NetGalley ARC of this one, that yet again I have not read (*slaps hand*), so when I got an eReaderIQ alert that this book was on sale for $1.99 from its usual $4.99, I one-clicked.  It makes me feel less guilty.  No longer on sale.
• Radio Silence by Alice Oseman — I honestly don’t even remember wishlisting this one, or why.  I’m thinking because it would be great for a diversity challenge, and the original cover looked much more compelling.  But when I got an eReaderIQ alert that this book was on sale for $1.99 from its usual $8.99, I figured why not!  Still on sale!
• Sleeping with the Boss (Anderson Brothers #1) by Marissa Clarke — I really loved book 3 in this series, and became curious about the other books.  So when I got an eReaderIQ alert that this book was on sale for 99 cents from its usual $2.99, I one-clicked!  Still on sale!
• Six-Month Horse (Island Series #0.5) by Tudor Robins — I’ve received ARCs of quite a few books in this series, and I think I might have gotten this one too, but I didn’t download it because I didn’t have time.  But when I saw in Ms. Robins newsletter that she would be offering it for free for one day, I snatched it up!
• Finding Daylight by Mara Dabrishus — This book was actually also in Tudor Robins’ newsletter, free for one day only, and since this author will be collaborating with Ms. Robins, I figured I didn’t want to miss out.
• Her Big Fat Foxy Billionaire Best Friend (Billionaire Series #2) by Victorine E. Lieske — Saw this one in my My Book Cave email on sale for free from its usual $2.99, and since I’ve read and loved this author before, I said yes please!  And you snooze you lose people, this was a one day sale!
