Definitely a mixed bag this week, from all sorts of places. Some stuff I got from one or the other committee that I’m on. Dark Queen Rising came from a forthcoming mysteries webinar. Amazon actually managed to guess right with one of their “since you looked at these books you might like these other books” […]

Another relatively short stack this week – and a stack fairly evenly divided between stuff I HAVE to read and stuff I WANT to read. All stuff I’ll have plenty of time to read if we get the edge of Hurricane Florence here in Atlanta. It won’t be a hurricane by the time it reaches […]

A blissfully short stack this week. And I managed to resist the temptation to buy anything! We are now post-Labor Day, and even though summer doesn’t officially end for a couple of weeks, and it’s still well into the 80s here temperature-wise, it is starting to feel like the year is winding down. I think […]

I’m so glad that this week’s list is considerably shorter than last week’s mad pandemonium. Or whatever you want to call that towering TBR pile. I would say something about too many books and too little time, but there can never be too many books. Too little time, on the other hand, is all too […]

This is the post-Worldcon, OMG all the books they were talking about sounded marvelous and 2 weeks of NetGalley and Edelweiss stack. I fully recognize it’s ginormous. And it could have been worse. There was one panel I was listening to where I was starting to buy everything, eventually realized that was insane, and started […]

I’m prepping this post very far ahead. And noting with irony that there is not much in the way of science fiction or any of its related genres in this particular stack. As you read this, I am at the World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon76) in San Jose. I should be much, much too busy […]

This is the OMG 300th edition of Stacking the Shelves over here at Reading Reality. I run a few numbers behind the official Stacking the Shelves over at Team Tymga’s, because there have been a few Saturdays where I’ve done something else, either a blog hop or I’ve been out of town for the weekend […]

The grid picture is my stack for this week. The picture below features the built-in bookshelves in my office in the new house. Aren’t they gorgeous? For anyone wondering, the shelves in my office contain our fiction collection up to the G’s, plus review books for my ALA committee. The rest of the alphabet, plus […]

I’ve cut this stack off early. We’re moving on Sunday and Monday, and I’m trying to get stuff done ahead of time. If at all possible. And this is certainly among the possible. But this stack looks kind of weird now that I see it. It represents one of the few times when I have […]
