Sunday Post & Stacking the Shelves - 03/10/19

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.

We've had the extreme of weather here in Alabama over the last week. We had tornadoes last Sunday. Monday through Thursday we had freezing temperatures. But then by Thursday noon it was warm enough for the kids to play outside and Friday it was back in the 70s. Friday I had to run some errands. Then we went to my mom's to hang out. The kids spent the weekend with my parents so Husband and I could get some work done on the house. I finished book 8 in the Charley Davidson series. That's the last one I'd gotten for review last year. I'm still enjoying the series, but I certainly need a break in genre and to get caught up on my other review books.

Monday: Review of First Grave on the Right (Charley Davidson, # 1) by Darynda Jones (4 Stars)
Wednesday: Can't Wait for Spin the Dawn by Elizabeth Lim

Goodreads description--After her beloved grandfather's death, Emmaline Moore is shocked to discover that her "deceased" father is actually living in Canada. Having no other family, Emma decides she must find him, and so embarks on a journey across the ocean, accompanied by her best friend, Jonathan. Unfortunately, Randall Moore and his well-to-do family aren't thrilled by her arrival, fearing her sudden appearance will hinder his chance at becoming mayor of Toronto in 1919. Despite everything, Emma remains determined to earn their affection.

Jonathan Rowe has secretly loved Emma for years and hopes that during their trip he can win her heart. Concerned that Randall might reject her, Jonathan is ready to console Emma and bring her home. When she informs him that she has no intention of returning to England, Jonathan begins to despair. Can he convince Emma to find value within herself rather than seeking it from a virtual stranger? And will she ever come to see that Jonathan is her true home?

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!

  2. I love the Charley Davidson series, especially the audio version but somehow it's a 4 heart usually rather than a 5 heart read. I added huge amounts to my haul last week. While the weather has been crazy, finally this week it's been almost normal 60-70 with only rain today (Friday) cooler this upcoming week 55-60 but still sunny. YAY. Have a lovely weekend!
