If felt like more when I was downloading them. I wonder why? Not a bad week, all in all. I’ve nearly finished B.O.Q., and it looks like the start of a good mystery series. And a friend has a story in Alternate Hilarities, so of course I had to get it! For Review: The Bastard […]
It was so crazy, I didn’t see anything I wanted on either NetGalley or Edelweiss until Thursday–then boom! Maybe this will leave a few spaces on my shelves for whatever I pick up at Norwescon this weekend? For Review: Assassin’s Way (Qolari Diplomatic Corps #1) by K.S. Augustin Court of Conspiracy (Tudor Enigma #1) by […]
NetGalley is clearly my downfall. Or NetGalley and Edelweiss combined. I like nothing better than to get lost in a good book, preferably with a cat on my lap. What I often get instead is a cat perched behind me, cleaning my hair. Sophie clearly thinks I need help with the job, but it feels […]
Today is my birthday, so I’m not going to say much, just go off and celebrate. If you want to celebrate with me, my annual Blogo-Birthday giveaway started yesterday. I’m giving away a $15 gift card and a selection of books. I hope you’ll take a look! For Review: 2 a.m. at the Cat’s Pajamas […]
This week, the stack is short. But while this is being posted, I’m going to be at the Emerald City ComiCon, trying not to pick up too much else! For Review: Bloodshifted (Edie Spence #5) by Cassie Alexander Enemies at Home (Flavia Albia #2) by Lindsey Davis Marked (Mindspace Investigation #3) by Alex Hughes Ruin […]
I never think the list is going to be this big, then I get to the end of the week, and it’s, well, this big. If these were print, our apartment would probably crash into the one below. I’m always grateful that my iPad doesn’t get heavier the more books I stuff into it. But […]
Another Saturday, and another Stacking the Shelves. Not quite as full as the last couple of weeks, but still pretty substantial. It’s hard to believe that this is my 80th shelf stack. Time does fly! Review: Banishing the Dark (Arcadia Bell #4) by Jenn Bennett The Care and Management of Lies by Jacqueline Winspear Cobalt […]
There’s another StoryBundle available, and this time it’s a “Truly Epic Fantasy Bundle”. It says so right there on the label. I got it for the Rusch and Gaiman books, but it looks like an awesome combination of stories all around. I can never resist a good epic fantasy, or even the promise of one–so […]
Someone blogged a couple of weeks ago about the temptation to get ARCs, resisting the temptation, and feeling overwhelmed by the number of review copies in one’s TBR stack versus the number of books one actually wanted to read, but wasn’t committed to. (And now I can’t find it!) I know I get more books […]
OK. This is all the stuff that didn’t fit into last week’s Stacking the Shelves. I think I’m caught up now. We binge-watched both seasons of Longmire, and, of course, it made me want to run out and get all the books. My name is Marlene and I’m a bookaholic, or biblioholic, if you want […]
