Sunday Post & Stacking the Shelves - 06/16/19

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.

Another super busy week. My Dad came over almost every day after work to help husband with the tractor and work on our yard. I worked on the pool and am amazed to say that it was in perfect condition on Saturday. Wednesday I took the kids to the park and we grabbed Happy Meals. Thursday I took the kids to visit Husband's work. I used to work there too and two of the women I worked with are leaving. One's last day was Friday and the other's last day will be Wednesday. I might never see either of them again and that makes me quite sad. So I knew I needed to take advantage and run by there before they were gone for good. Friday I took both kids to the grocery store with me. And then Saturday we had the entire family over to celebrate my brother's birthday, Father's Day, and my birthday. It was such a fun day of food, swimming, and hanging out with everyone. Then today, Husband's mom is cooking for my birthday and his sister and her family are here to celebrate. Busy week.

Goodreads description--From the moment she first learned to read, literary genius Darcy Wells has spent most of her time living in the worlds of her books. There, she can avoid the crushing reality of her mother’s hoarding and pretend her life is simply ordinary. But when a new property manager becomes more active in the upkeep of their apartment complex, the only home Darcy has ever known outside of her books suddenly hangs in the balance.

While Darcy is struggling to survive beneath the weight of her mother’s compulsive shopping, Asher Fleet, a former teen pilot with an unexpectedly shattered future, walks into the bookstore where she works…and straight into her heart. For the first time in her life, Darcy can’t seem to find the right words. Fairy tales are one thing, but real love makes her want to hide inside her carefully constructed ink-and-paper bomb shelter.

Still, after spending her whole life keeping people out, something about Asher makes Darcy want to open up. But securing her own happily-ever-after will mean she’ll need to stop hiding and start living her own truth—even if it’s messy.

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!
