This meme is hosted by Reading Reality every Saturday. Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical stores or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts, and of course eBooks!  And audiobooks. Don’t forget audiobooks! In other words, if you can read it or if it can be read to you – no matter how you got it – it belongs in Stacking the Shelves.

Life In General

My daughter, myself, and my two middle grandsons went to the book outlet store, Barnes & Noble, and the library on Thursday. I bought two books at Barnes & Noble that I have been wanting to read. Monsters Among Us by Monica Rodden, and The Cheerleaders by Kara Thomas. I have had The Cheerleaders on my TBR list for quite some time since I was turned down on NetGalley, so when I saw it, I grabbed it. I didn’t pick up anything at the library but my daughter and grandson did. She borrowed some books for my youngest grandson because he reads every night. So I had a pretty good week. I hope everyone had a good week!

I read and reviewed these last week:

My Thoughts

At the outset, I was skeptical about whether I would enjoy this particular book, primarily due to the unique styling format.
