Sunday Post - 58 & Stacking the Shelves - 31

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.

This has been one crazy week. Friday, Husband and I got home from grocery shopping after work to find that our fridge was broken. It was literally like 5:20 and every kind of repair place closes at 5:00. UGH! Luckily, my sister was moving to an apartment about ten minutes away and let us stash our food in her fridge/freezer. What a life food saver! Then we spent Saturday getting my sister and nephew moved into the new apartment. My FitBit says I did 32 flights of stairs. Busy busy!

Goodreads description--It's been three years since the devastating accident . . . three years since Mia walked out of Adam's life forever.

Now living on opposite coasts, Mia is Juilliard's rising star and Adam is LA tabloid fodder, thanks to his new rock star status and celebrity girlfriend. When Adam gets stuck in New York by himself, chance brings the couple together again, for one last night. As they explore the city that has become Mia's home, Adam and Mia revisit the past and open their hearts to the future-and each other.

Told from Adam's point of view in the spare, lyrical prose that defined If I Stay, Where She Went explores the devastation of grief, the promise of new hope, and the flame of rekindled romance.

That's it for my shelves and recaps of my past and upcoming week. What did you add to your shelves this week? Any bookish news you want to talk about? Let me know!
