Stacking The Shelves & Sunday Post #6




I am combining two great weekly blog hops:  Stacking The Shelves by Team Tynga's Reviews, and Sunday Post by Caffeinated Reviewer.  I hope to read as many of the blogs from these two hops as possible because I love to see what everyone is reading!

If you enjoy my blog, please consider following me at Bloglovin, Goodreads, or Twitter.  Let me know you're a new follower so I can follow you back!

Happenings:
Love is in the air and our office team is in charge of a Valentine's Day celebration.  We've been having a lot of fun planning decorations, food, and games.  I've even created a playlist on Spotify!

                                     

Reading:
I got a surprising amount of reading done this week, finishing three books.

I think I liked A Long Petal of The Sea, by Isabel Allende the most.  It was such an epic story of refugees making a new life for themselves in South America in the 1940's.  I loved the characters, and learning more about historical events I knew little of, such as the Spanish Civil War.

 This was a pre-order.  I really admire the author and illustrator of this graphic novel, Jim Di Bartolo.  Each page is filled with the most amazing artwork.  And the story is about the early life of Bruce Lee!

This is one of my most anticipated books of 2020!  The audiobooks of this series have been incredible due to the stellar performance of the narrator, January LaVoy.  If you've been following this series, read the audiobook versions.  They are a special treat.

Oh boy!  Have I bitten off more than I can chew???

What are some of your most anticipated books for 2020?  Let me know in the comments.

    Thanks, Jessica. I just started The King of Crows and it has everything, super fun, diverse characters, with a creepy villain. The audiobook is superb, as usual.

    Ack, the unknown above is me -- if you could delete that comment I would appreciate it, I was logged in to the wrong Google account. Here's my comment:

    Ooh, are you reading the Wayward Children novellas for the first time? I really liked Every Heart a Doorway, though I'm getting impatient for a novella about one of my favourite characters.

    My weekly roundup post.

    I can't believe it's almost Valentine's Day already! This month is already flying by. Fun playlist! Some of those songs I haven't heard in ages!

    The Mindy McGinnis ARC looks good.

    I think I've read another book by Isabel Allende that was good. Most of your current reads look fun. Have a great week :)
