Stacking The Shelves is hosted by Tynga's Reviews and Reading Reality as a way to share all the books we got during the week!
The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewer. Its a weekly post to showcase what books you got, recap the week, and talk about what will be coming up this week on the blog!
So before we get this started. We kinda went to 2 bookstores last weekend, and I might have found some used books at each. I admit, I have no self control. On the brightside, I bought them all used! So I didn't spend as much money as I could potentially have. That's something right??
- The Assassin's Blade (Throne of Glass #0.1-0.5) by Sarah J. Maas
- Tower of Dawn (Throne of Glass #6) by Sarah J. Maas
- Always and Forever, Lara Jean (To All The Boys I've Loved Before #3) by Jenny Han
So obviously I read The Assassin's Blade in July. But I didn't have a copy for my collection. So since I finally found a used copy, I picked it up. And I also found Tower of Dawn there as well! So since I was able to pick that up, my Throne of Glass collection is complete until Kingdom of Ash comes out. And I read the first two TATBILB books in August, but since there's a bit of a wait on the third from the library for the audiobook, I figured I'd just buy the copy of Always and Forever when I came across it.
- Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns #1) by Kendare Blake
- If I Should Die (Revenants #3) by Amy Plum
- Our Dark Duet (Monsters of Verity #2) by Victoria Schwab
So this is all from the second used bookstore we went to. I was surprised to come across a copy of Three Dark Crowns. So I snatched it up real quick. I know a lot of people like it and the 3rd book in the series is coming out this month. So why not. I also picked up If I Should Die, book 3 in the Revenants trilogy. I own books 1 and 2 in hardcover but never had the chance to grab book 3, so I picked it up since I found a used hardcover! And I found Our Dark Duet for 5 bucks! I plan on reading This Savage Song in October so I'm thrilled I have this to go with it now!

So I did finish the audiobook of Hollow City by Ransom Riggs on Sunday last week. I really enjoyed it! I thought it was pretty good. I really enjoyed the narrator! I listened to the audiobook of P.S. I Still Love You by Jenny Han this week as well. And I really enjoyed that. I think the narrator of the TATBILB books does a great job! I also read my advanced copy of Shadow of the Fox by Julie Kagawa. I enjoy it. I really loved the Japanese culture and folklore in the story. Despite it kinda being on an off with action and plot twists until close to the end, all the folklore and culture really kept me interested. I definitely suggest it if you want a well researched, well written cultural read. You really feel like your in Japan in that book! And last, but not least, I read Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo. I know guys. Shame. I'm finally reading it. Ahh. I definitely am kicking myself. I really enjoyed the book and regret not reading it sooner! I'm also finally making progress on Furyborn by Claire Legrand. For the past few months I've been stuck on like chapter 2. But I've made it now to chapter 7 reading it in between other reads. And I'm starting to get more into the story now.
It's been a pretty good week. So I got a new bookshelf guys!!! My in-laws were able to get it from their neighbor who was just giving it away. YAY! GUYS... I can fit all my books on my shelf now. No double stacking, no books piled on the floor. Everything fits on my bookshelf now!!! AND I STILL HAVE MORE ROOM!!!! Now that I have a new bookshelf. I'll be doing a proper bookshelf tour for you guys. I wanted to do one sooner, but then we got wind of the potential new bookshelf and I put it off. I'm so excited guys!
We also treated the in-laws to lunch last weekend. They are always taking us out to eat, so we decided to treat them since we have the extra money to do so. We tried out a new restaurant. Black Bear Diner for those of you on the west coast who might have heard of it. Soo good!! We all thoroughly enjoyed it. And all the cute bear themed stuff throughout the place made it so fun! We also had a pretty cool server who was super excited he was getting a bunch of the first timers to the place!
Also guys, look at this! My Goodreads goal and my NetGalley ratio!! I'm gonna hit my Goodreads goal in September, and I have a good feeling I'll hit that wondrous 80% on NetGalley as well. The 71% is actually without a review I need to send in this weekend. So it'll probably go up to 72%-73% by the end of the weekend! WOOOOOOO!!!!!
