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. Never has my addiction been more obvious than when I am now keeping track of every single book I acquire.

What did you add to your stash this week?
Happy Reading!

I bought a pile of cheap political books a couple of weeks back and I'm gradually adding them so I don't swamp my progress with Tackling The TBR!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that cheating? ;)
DeleteOnly *one* for me this week!
ReplyDeleteTarget Alex Cross by James Patterson
WHAT?! This is about as shocking as that one week where you hauled nothing!
DeleteOoh! like the sound of that moon book. I didn't buy anything new. Still waiting to get those Trek books from last week...the post office LOST one! :(
ReplyDeleteWhat jerks! Losing books is a sin and shall not be easily forgiven. Hopefully they find it.
DeleteI am not done with the moon book yet, but it is really neat, I like it.
OK, I have a story to tell. I was reading along in Chimes of a Lost Cathedral by Janet Fitch, a book I bought last week in hardcover. Suddenly I realized I was reading a page that did not follow from the last page and was a page I had already read. There were 32 pages missing in the copy I was reading and instead those 32 pages were another set of pages I had read earlier. I was so deep into the story, it was Saturday night, Barnes & Noble was closed for the night. So I bought an ebook copy, read those missing pages and went back to the hardcover. Hoping I can get a replacement copy from the store this week. This is a new reading problem I have never had before. So my one new book in was a book I already had!
ReplyDeleteThat is so crazy! How does that even happen?? And seeing as how books are printed in such huge batches, I am guessing that other readers are having the same problem as you!
