I am really excited to participate in Stacking the Shelves, a weekly meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews and Reading Reality.
My Life
This was a pretty good week. It is finally starting to look a bit like spring around here. We actually had some snow flurries on Sunday but it was over 80° by the end of the week. I will take all of the warmer weather I can get. I was able to leave work a couple of hours early on Thursday while it was nice out so we took the dogs for a walk in the middle of the afternoon which was nice. I do appreciate these quieter weeks.
Books Added This Week
Too Wilde to Wed by Eloisa James (Edelweiss)
Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo (Kindle Purchase)
Providence by Caroline Kepnes (LibraryThing Early Reviewer)
My Oxford Year by Julia Whelan (Edelweiss)
Providence by Caroline Kepnes (LibraryThing Early Reviewer)
My Oxford Year by Julia Whelan (Edelweiss)
Never Kiss a Rake by Anne Stuart (Audible Purchase)
Her Darkest Nightmare by Brenda Novak (Audible Purchase)
So much for small book hauls! I have been really eager to get my hands on Too Wilde to Wed so I was thrilled to finally have my request approved on Edelweiss. I couldn’t resist Wonder Woman: Warbringer when I saw it offered for only $1.99 this week. I received the copy of Providence that I won on LibraryThing this week. I am really curious about this one and expect that it will be very different than You. I love Julia Whelan’s narration so I am really curious to read the book that she has written, My Oxford Year. I picked up the audiobook of Never Kiss a Rake for $1.99 since I already had the ebook and I used a credit for Her Darkest Nightmare. I listened to Her Darkest Nightmare this week and found it entertaining. These should keep me busy for a while!
What books do you add to your shelves this week?
Let me know in the comments and be sure to leave a link to your own STS post!
Very nice haul this week, Carole! I hope you'll enjoy Her Darkest Nightmare! I read that and found it to be really good.
Also, I'm ready for our buddy-listen of The Iron Druid when you are – just let me know 🙂
Have a wonderful weekend and happy reading.

I did enjoy Her Darkest Nightmare and can't wait to keep going with the series.
Awesome haul you got this week! I also got Wonder Woman Warbringer and I can't wait to read it soon! Hope you enjoy your books!
Here’s my STS!

I hope you enjoy Wonder Woman, Ronyell!
it is finally feeling like autumn here! never kiss a rake.. bwahaha a kid would be like.. why kiss a rake (the one that does the leaves)?
I am so ready for warmer temperatures but it is cold again. 🙂
Some intriguing ones for you there! Happy reading!
Thank you!
Ooh nice! I still need to read Kepnes' books, I bought You and Hidden Bodies awhile back and have my eyes on her new one as well. Though I want to try to read the ones I have before automatically buying this one! Congrats on the win! Hope you enjoy all your new reads!
Got up early enough to sneak a few blog visits in! 😉 My STS will be up tomorrow, so stop by then if you can!
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower 🙂
Thanks, Jessica!
Yay for a quieter warmer week. I am excited to see what Providence is like. Have a great week!
I hope Providence turns out to be a good one. I have my fingers crossed!
Quiet weeks are nice. Walking the dogs in the afternoon is nice, too. It’s less crowded around here when everyone is at work. Then I don’t have to worry so much about controlling my crazy dogs. Have a great week and enjoy your new books!
Aj @ Read All The Things!
Quiet weeks are the best! Thanks, AJ 🙂
How lovely that you got off work in time to enjoy the day. Woohoo on the great haul. Hope you enjoy them. 🙂
Thanks, Sophia Rose!
There's no fun in small book hauls…release your inner beast and buy all the books!
I am pretty good at letting that beast out 🙂
I was excited to hear about warmer weather, but I went from winter coat right to air conditioning. I just want a little spring, you know? I am excited to read My Oxford Year. It sounds like something I would like.
Our warmer temps didn't last…it is cold again. I think that My Oxford Year will be a good one.
Great haul, you got some good one!! 🙂
Thanks, Stormi!
I was denied for Too Wilde! Bohooo, but then ever 6 months I request s bunch of books from Edelwesiss and is approved for 1 in 10 lol
I am sorry you were denied! It took them forever to approve my request so I was really worried about it.
Hope you like them.
Thanks, Mary!
OOH I got Providence also this week!! Best start reading huh? LOL OOh you got Eloisa James, she's terrific, I look forward to that review!! enjoy your great books!!

I hope we both enjoy Providence, Joann!
My Oxford Year is the one I'm curious about. Enjoy your haul.
I hope that My Oxford Year will be as good as I hope.
Ooh I could use some 80's! Glad you warmed up some. We have an ice storm warning so there's that. 🙂 Providence looks good, i like that cover. And nice deal on wonder woman!
It was warm, then cold again, and now it is around 60. You never know what it is going to do around here!
I still need to read Wonder Woman: Warbringer. It's on my ever-growing list. *sigh*
I'm glad the weather is warmer there. It was 73 degrees here today, and while 67 is perfect for me, I'll take 73 over icky snow and 30.
I like things a bit warmer. 80's make me very happy 🙂
sounds like the weather here, we had one day of 80 but snow before that blah. you had a lot more self control on haul than me 😀
I really have zero self control. I have so many books and can't stop looking for more to read.
Quieter weeks are very nice, indeed. Yay for all the pretty reads! (was 80 today here, too)
Quiet weeks are the best!
Nice haul ! Hope you enjoy them !
Thank you!
I hope you enjoy all of your books. Glad you got an afternoon with your pups. Those are always nice. Enjoy.
Melanie @ Hot Listens & Rabid Reads
Getting off just couple of hours early really felt wonderful, Melanie!
Sounds like nice weather. We've had some hit or miss and the dogs have certainly enjoyed it when we did. So you had a larger book haul – I see no problem (just look at mine 🙂
Large book hauls can be kind of fun 🙂
Our temperatures have been in the 70's and 80's as of late. Twice in the low 90's last week. I am enjoying the warmer weather (although 90's is a bit too warm still). I am glad you were able to enjoy a quieter week. Looks like you have some great books ahead of you! I hope you enjoy them all. 🙂 Have a great week, Carole!
90's already! That is summer weather 🙂
The warm weather was such a tease. :O Now it's cold and rainy. Omg, I really like Wonder Woman! I might try that new Eloisa James novel. Happy reading, Carole!
Have a lovely week. =)
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
I am ready to have some nice weather stay a while!
Big book hauls are the best 🙂 I'm so anxious to get my hands on Providence. Congrats!!
I would have to agree!
I have Providence on my to be read pile, too. I can't wait to read it. I checked you out of the library last week after seeing the trailer for the show. YOWZA!
Hmmm…I'm not sure of that Eloisa James cover. LOL
Thanks for sharing.
From what I hear, You is a totally different kind of book than Providence. I am ready to give Providence a try though.
That Eloisa James book is calling me – well actually all Eloisa James books are calling to me. I really want to read more from her. The weather has been insane lately. I wish it'd just pick a season and stick with it – as long as that season isn't winter!
I am so excited about the Eloisa James book! The first book in the series, Wilde in Love, really did a great job getting me excited for this one. I cannot wait to read North's story.
The weather has been so mixed up lately! Wonder woman is one I really want to read. I love superheroes and my little sister read it and loved it already too :3
I am really looking forward to Wonder Woman. I have always love that character and can't wait to read the story.
