Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Reading Reality. It's a place to showcase any books I have purchased, borrowed, or been lucky enough to have been given an advance copy of. Hope you find something that looks interesting to you or that makes you remember a favorite book you need to finish. Enjoy your reading this week!
Kindle purchase: $2.99:
This book was written by a descendant of Robert the Bruce. I saw it in Half Price Books and was fascinated. It is written in a narrative style and from just flipping through the pages looks to be balanced between his life as King and battles, and his personal life. Just the kind of historical fiction I love. It was a good find. Also, the author it seems would have more incentive to remain true to the history considering it is about his own relatives.
Borrowed from Hoopla: Free
I have wanted to read a book by this author for awhile. She has a series before this one with the same character but this is a new series begun in 2024 and I love that it is called Lady Traveler in Egypt, meaning the series will focus on that part of the world. I'm sure the second book will be out this year so I'm going to get started on this one. Then maybe go back and read how it all began. Another cozy series is NOT what I need to be reading, lol....but I just can't help myself. And such a beautiful cover too.
Net Galley ARC: Free
My Net Galley ratio is not good. As in 40%. I have been bad about requesting ARC's and not finishing them or not liking them and feeling pressed to review anyway. So I'm choosing ones that I will actually read and this author is one I enjoyed before and the stories are really cute. I am very grateful that they are giving me a chance too. This is the start of a new series. That also appeals to me as I'm looking to get in on the ground floor of some series books so I'm not always behind on them!
