Stacking the Shelves: The Stuffed Cat Edition

 "Stacking the Shelves" is a weekly haul meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews and Reading Reality. It allows book buyers to share their accumulation of books with the online book-loving community.

I'm finally getting back into the swing of things. Just in time for the world to fall apart. Lol. Not really. It just feels like it most days. It's so weird to blog about books when there are awful things happening day after day. But, I've got to keep my sanity somehow, so books have been assigned that task. As for my actual life and not just my doomscrolling life, it's pretty much the same. I'm getting back into my regular workout schedule, and it feels good. Now, I've just got to keep it up.

As for books I got this week, there's actually only one physical edition. It's House of Bane and Blood by Alexis L. Menard. This was a Barnes & Noble preorder. I'd heard great things about the self-published version, so I decided to preorder the traditionally-published paperback. I'm hoping to read it before the sequel officially releases, so I can decide if I want to preorder book two as well. 

 

 

Up next, I have my JLA Shop The Primal of Blood and Bone box. This basically was just a goodie box JLA sold to coincide with the TPOBAB release this month. Honestly, I was surprised it was shipped out so early. I expected it to come around the 23rd, but I'm happy it's here now. I'd rather it come when I'm not getting ready for a trip. The box came with a pretty blanket, Cas's crown, a signed bookplate, an art print with the blanket art, a stuffed cave cat (if you know, you know), and an acrylic standee of Poppy, Cas, and Kieran. The whole box makes me even more excited for TPOBAB. Gah!

 

As for ebooks, I have one this week. It's Kresley Cole's Shadow's Heart. I've been putting off buying this because I couldn't decide if I wanted the paperback or ebook, but I had some Kindle credit that was expiring, and I couldn't decide on what else I wanted to purchase, so I panic-bought Shadow's Heart. Will I probably get the paperback eventually? Maybe. But at least now I can read the book whenever I want.

Well, that's all for me. What books have you bought/received lately?
