Stacking The Shelves #143 & Sunday Post # 107




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 seeing everyone's version of these features!   All book covers are linked to Goodreads, if you want to check them out.  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! 

On The Blog:


No reviews posted this week.  But I am gearing up to post several reviews in January, so I am busy reading and analyzing about seven books!

In Real Life:

This week flew by!  I've been busy doing my online shopping for Christmas, and making several trips to Oakland to buy books at my favorite bookstore, A Great Good Place for Books.  Okay, several of the books were for me...

On Friday evening my daughter and I attended a beautiful holiday choral concert with the Pacific Boychoir Academy. of Oakland, California.  So many talented signers and a wonderful Brass group provided accompanying music.  This concert really got me in the holiday spirit.

 I heard about this book from an Instagram post of Amie Kaufman, who sang it's praises.  This is a series of short stories that are truly riviting!  I am really enjoying this audio book.

That's it for this week.  I am looking forward to losing myself in books when the holidays get too crazy!  Is that also your escape?  What books are you reading to relax this week?

  1. I’m glad the concert was fun. I wish I had bookish people in my real life. I’d love to go to bookstores and pick out gifts. I’d probably end up with a lot of books for myself, too. Have a great week!
