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)

Borrowed From The Library:

• How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk by Adele Faber & Elaine Mazlish.  I saw this at the library and thought, “Why not?” 
• Eat Bacon, Don’t Jog: A Contrarian’s Guide to Diet, Exercise, and What Actually Works by Grant Petersen.  This book is hilarious, even if I don’t believe everything he is saying.
• The Teenage Body: A New Edition for a New Generation by Kathy McCoy & Charles Wibbelsman.  So I’m terrified of my daughter being not feeling like she can come to me with questions, so I figured I can come to her with answers first and see how that goes.
• Get Fit for Free and Ditch the Gym for Total Fitness: Workout Routines to Keep Fit, Tone Up, Lose Weight, and Save Money by Scott Tudge.  I’m doing a 30 day exercise challenge and this book should be able to help me.

Kindle Unlimited:

• The Keto Instant Pot Cookbook: Ketogenic Diet Pressure Cooker Recipes Made Easy & Fast by Urvashi Pitre.
• Queen of Klutz (The Sibby Series #1) by Samantha Garman. 
• The Queen of All that Dies (The Fallen World #1) by Laura Thalassa.
• The Ugly Stepsister (Unfinished Fairy Tales #1) by Aya Ling.
• The Fallen World: The Complete Series (Fallen World #1-3.5) by Megan Crewe.

Purchased:

• The Big Book of 30 Day Challenges: 60 Habit-Forming Programs to Live an Infinitely Better Life by Rosanna Casper.
• Mixtape: A Love Song Anthology by Nikki Sloane, Elle Kennedy, K.L. Kreig, Leslie McAdam, Lynda Aicher, Mara White, Rebecca Shea.  It was alright.

Lenoreo’s Haul

(All Ebooks unless otherwise specified)

ARCs From Authors/PR Companies:

OK, these two were really weird, b/c they’re sort of NetGalley.  In both cases I requested them on NetGalley and got rejected…and then I saw them on PR emails and signed up again and got the widgets.  *shrugs*  Persistence pays off!

• The Last Letter by Rebecca Yarros from InkSlinger PR — releases February 26th, 2019.
• Eyes on Me by Rachel Harris from Entangled: Teen blogger newsletter — releases March 26th, 2019.

Preorders That Went Live:

• Between Friends (Romance for all Seasons #5) by Sandra Marie — released February 1st, 2019.  LOVED IT!!!  (see my review here)

New Releases:

• Catastrophe Queen by Emma Hart — released January 29th, 2019.  This one is Deanna @A Novel Glimpse’s fault.  I also think I got this one on a release sale, but it’s not on sale anymore…

Audiobooks:

• Hate Notes by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward, narrated by Sebastian York & Lynn Barrington — Oh look, another $1.99 Whispersync Add-On deal!  I’ve been wanting to read this one since it came out, and I like giving narrators I never listened to before a chance.  I started this one last night and was LAUGHING and LAUGHING out loud already.  Bonus, both of these authors will be attending Talkbooks Author Event in Boston in April!

Got It On Sale:

• Ready to Fall (Wingmen #1) by Daisy Prescott — I think this one is on sale because the series is getting new covers, but I really love this one…  Anyways, I put this on my wishlist because people always recommend Ms. Prescott (especially to Penny Reid fans), and she will be attending Talkbooks Author Event as well.  So when I got an eReaderIQ alert that it was on sale for free from its usual $4.99, I snagged it!  Still free!
• The Varlet and the Voyeur (Rugby #4) by L.H. Cosway & Penny Reid — Seriously guys, I was doing really good at not buying books this week, and then February 1st hit and BAM, all these books I’ve wanted go on sale.  #firstworldproblems  Anyways, I still have to catch up on this series, but this was the one I was most looking forward to when I was reading teasers, so when I got an eReaderIQ alert that it was on sale for $1.99 from its usual $5.99, I one-clicked like a boss!  Still on sale!
• Hate Notes by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward — OK, I will admit I legit have no idea how I found out this one was on sale…I looked at a few usual suspects, but none of them mentioned anything.  So…Facebook?  But it is on sale for $1.99 from its usual $3.99, and as I mentioned above, the audio is a great whispersync add-on deal.  Still on sale!
• The Elements Series Complete Box Set (Elements #1-4) by Brittainy C. Cherry — I’ve read all these books (well, 3 of which I listened to), but I didn’t own Fire.  And I’m the kind of girl that likes less clutter in my Kindle, so when I can get a box set on a good deal, you bet I’m on it.  And since I follow Ms. Cherry on eReaderIQ, I got an alert that it was on sale for 99 cents from its usual $9.99.  Still on sale!
