I am combining two great blog hops: Stacking The Shelves (a Saturday feature by Team Tynga's Reviews), and Sunday Post (a Sunday feature by the Caffeinated Book Reviewer). Both of these features give people a chance to post about what books they received and also an opportunity to catch a glimpse of what others are excited about. I really enjoy see everyone's version of these features! If you enjoy my blog, please consider following me via Bloglovin, Networked Blogs, GFC, or by email subscription. If you leave a comment and tell me you are a new follower, I will follow you back! As always, all book cover images are linked to GoodReads so if you see a book you want to learn more about, just click away...
On The Blog Last Week:
It has been pretty quiet on the blogging front this past week. I have been working hard on reading in order to stay on target for my goal of 15 books per month. I don't think I can do it...
As for blogging, I just had a few posts this week:
Monday: Bay Area Book Events #38
New Books:
Public Library:
I've already finished Hunted and it was amazing. A very dark version of Beauty & The Beast.
NetGalley:
That's it for this week. What books are you excited about? Have you read any of these books? Tell me what you think of them, please.
Ooh nice! I picked up Hunted this week too! Really enjoyed it! Hope you love all your new reads!
ReplyDeleteMy STS will be up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by then!
Have a GREAT day!

I loved Hunted!!! I just need to write a review, but I enjoyed the complexity of the characters and plot. It wasn't just "she must fall in love with the Beast".
DeleteI wish I could read 15 books a month. I’ve been reading the same book for 2 weeks. I hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Well, I am starting to have my doubts about whether I can do it either! I can usually pop out 12 books a month, no problem. This is with a combination of traditional books, and audio books. I can listen to audio books while I'm driving or making dinner, etc. Have a great week.
DeleteI'm really excited about Hunted! I didn't end up getting an ARC but I plan on eventually reading it. I'm a sucker for retellings. I feel like I've been falling behind on reading this month too. And when I do read I haven't been very motivated to write reviews. Basically, I'm a big slacker this month. lol! Hoping I can get myself sorted out and back on track soon. Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI loved Hunted. It was a very thoughtful book that was more about how we perceive happiness than falling in love. I wrote a review, which will be up on Tuesday. I often need a few days to marinate my thoughts on a book, before I write my reviews. But, by then, I am already into another book and I don't want to stop to write! I need to write the reviews sooner... Have a wonderful week.
DeleteHuh, Hunted sounds cool. Might have to keep an eye out for that! Hope you enjoy the new books. :)
ReplyDeleteMy STS.
Thank you, Nikki. Hunted was wonderful and I was lucky to get on a wait list that came through on the release date! Hurray for public libraries! I'll check out your STS today!
DeleteOoo, Hunted sound like a good one right about now, with the release of Beauty and the Beast movie. Glad to hear you liked it. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteI love Emma Watson, so I do want to see the movie. But it IS a children's film, so it is not going to be a very deep movie (I know some kid movies, like Up are deep). But I liked Hunted because it really explores some complex themes of restlessness, and family. I hope you read it and love it as much as I did! Have a wonderful week.
DeleteIt's also been a slow week for me last week since I was too busy trying to read up on the books I got.
ReplyDeleteHere’s my Sunday Post!
Ronyell @ Rabbit Ears Book Blog and join in this week’s Book Photo Sundays!
yes! All I want to do is sit in a quiet place and read all day!!!Have a wonderful week.
Delete15 books in a month is awesome! I wish I could do that! have a great week.
ReplyDeleteRight now, I am averaging 12 books per month, but I hope when there are some breaks (I work in a school), I can get more reading in and catch up. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteA Study in Charlotte looks very tempting. Enjoy your books, and thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHere are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
Thank you, Laurel. It's an audio book, so I can listen and get other work done. I just want to read all the time, but life also needs tending to. Have a wonderful week.
DeleteIt is still early in the year. You have time to work on reading 15 a month still! Don't give up hope yet. :-) I am lucky to read five a month--but I'm okay with that. I just added Hunted to my wish list. It sounds really good. I like dark. A Study in Charlotte is another one I would really like to read. I hope you have a great week, Ardis!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I loved Hunted, and it was quite a dark book. I have A Study In Charlotte as an audio book, so I hope to get to it this week. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteFeast of Sorry sounds really good! I love ancient Rome so Looking forward to the review :)
