It’s not so much that this stack is shorter as it is that the stack of books for which I have covers is shorter. Some of the stuff that’s not being published until next year has eARCs available but no cover art yet. And so it goes. I’m not sure that “pretty” is a word […]
There are a few, let’s call them themes, in this week’s stack. There are two books about books, two books with pretty much the same premise, some really pretty covers with very similar color schemes, more pretty covers, and one book I just can’t wait to read. In no particular order, the books about books […]
A slightly less ginormous stack this time around – even if it is no less splendiferous in its offerings. There are several really beautiful covers this time around, including Children of Gods and Fighting Men, Glance, and Upon a Starlit Tide. The two books that I’m most curious about are Picks and Shovels and Symbiote. […]
And we’re back! We’re still unpacking, it’s going to take weeks to sort through the books I picked up even though they are all ebooks, we’re still tired and the cats are all clinging tightly – they forgave us almost instantly and haven’t let us out of their sight for an instant ever since. There […]
Last week’s stack consisted of a whole bunch of September books, so it’s probably not a surprise that these are mostly October books – except for Miss Percy. I needed to work ahead because we’re away for a few days and I couldn’t let a Saturday go by without a Stacking the Shelves – even […]
These are all September books. I’ve been kind of hanging onto this stack – although not in the literal sense because books are heavy – because I knew there were a couple of weekends coming up where I’d be away and this stack would give me the opportunity to get it done ahead and have […]
Yet another short stack. They’ll start getting bigger/taller soon, I think. I’m starting to accumulate candidates for the stack that do not yet have covers, pretty or otherwise, to liven up this post. (It kind of feels like I’m saying that Xmas is coming. More books! YAY!) A short stack doesn’t mean that there aren’t […]
Yet another short stack. ‘Tis the season, clearly. This is a stack that generates more curiosity and anticipation than it invokes pretty – at least for moi – but your mileage may vary. The two books I’m anticipating the most are Blood and Magic and The Hermit Next Door. The one that has my curiosity […]
This week’s stack is short. Like really, REALLY short. Summer just isn’t a big time for new books. Two of the books in this stack won’t be published until 2025 – in the winter. The two with the prettiest covers this week are also two of the creepiest – A Harvest of Hearts and Out […]
Occasionally, Amazon’s attempts to match something-a-likes to whatever you’re searching for gets a bit, well, odd. The first entries for a search for Lightfall by Ed Crocker, I searched for “Lightfall Crocker” figuring that would be enough. The top entry for that search is a The Betty Crocker Cookbook. I get the “Crocker” part but […]
