Stacking the Shelves #100


Stacking the Shelves is a weekly feature co-hosted by Tynga's Reviews and Reading Reality. It is a chance to showcase all the goodies you've collected throughout the week, whether they're bought on-line or in-store, an ARC or a final copy, borrowed from a friend or the library, physical or digital, etc.

***As you might have noticed, there has been a big increase in my YA reads recently. I have found some really great books by Black and African-American authors and I am trying to amplify as many voices as possible. I have a reading list going and am trying to include as many genres as possible, for all age groups. Take a look and let me know if you have any to add to this list: #BlackLivesMatter Reading List***

    1. FINALLY, right?? Although I am sure you have some new treasure that I will have to snag. Between you and CK, I will never get my TBR under control!

    1. I really liked On the Come Up. As I was reading I thought I would end up loving it even more than The Hate U Give, but in the end I ended up loving THUG the most still. Even so, it is a FANTASTIC book and you will love it.

    1. Read it in one day, it was so good! I could not figure out the sociopath and I knew it wasn't Becca because the author def wanted us to think it was Becca at times.

    Aj @ Read All The Things!

    1. I would love to know your thoughts when you finish it. I really liked it, but felt the end was kind of abrupt. Still, a very solid middle grade text that I will definitely have available for my students.

  6. That's a great library haul! I've been eyeing up Slay; I hope you enjoy it!

    My weekly roundup!

    1. The cover alone is swoon-worthy, it just pops. Fiction is so not my thing, but since I started this mission to read and promote more fiction by authors of color, I have found some amazing titles. I am normally a non-fiction kind of girl.
