Stacking the Shelves: 04 May 2019

Hello bookworms! May the fourth be with you!! Welcome to my weekly Stacking the Shelves, which is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews & Reading Reality. As a reminder, this is where we discuss books that you have added to your shelves regardless if they are virtual or physical. This means that you can include books you buy in a store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts, and ebooks!

So this is bit longer than I had originally thought. Guess I went a little overboard, but it’s books.

NetGalley/Edelweiss Approvals

•

• 

• Gravemaidens by Kelly Coon – This is my MOST anticipated read this year, so I almost died when I got the approval email. I’ll be reading this one soon!!
• The Grace Year by Kim Liggett – And this is my second most anticipated read of the year! I couldn’t believe that you could request it on Edelweiss (I had to wish for it on NetGalley), and I was approved the next morning!
• Hattie’s Home for Broken Hearts by Tilly Tennant – I’m really excited for this feel-good summer romance! I’m on tour for this one with bookouture, and I can’t wait. I love their books!

• 

• Sky Queen by Judy Kundert – Thank you to BookSparks! This one is part of their SRC2019, and I can’t wait to dive into it.
• The Last Resort by Marissa Stapley – My Goodreads giveaway win from Graydon books. When couples who are struggling in their marriage are stuck on a resort due to a tropical storm and can’t leave, nothing can go wrong…right?! This one is also a part of BookSparks SRC2019.
• Star-Crossed by Minnie Darke – My Goodreads giveaway win from Crown Publishing. A love story based on astrological signs. This one sounds dreamy!
• A Nearly Normal Family by M.T. Edvardsson – This was a complete surprise that showed up from Celadon Books. I missed out on this one on Bookish First, so I was so happy when this baby was sitting on my porch! This legal thriller sounds so good!
• Mom’s Perfect Boyfriend by Crystal Hemmingway – Thank you to Galbadia Press for this rom-com! It looks like such a fun read and perfect for the upcoming summer season.
• Otherwise Engaged by Lindsey J. Palmer – Thank you to Skyhorse Publishing for this beauty. I feel like this one is going to be a train wreck for the poor MC, but I can’t wait to see what happens.
