Sunday Post & Stacking the Shelves - 10/20/19

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. Husband was off work all week, and Little Girl was on fall break until Friday. Monday and Tuesday, it was rainy at our house. We really needed the rain, and we took the opportunity to clean out our garage since there wasn't any other outside stuff Husband could get done. Tuesday night I met a friend for dinner. Tuesday morning I woke up with a sore throat and runny nose, I think due to stirring up all the dirt and dust from the garage. Wednesday afternoon we had family pictures made. I only got to see a few shots on her camera, so I'm really anxious to see how they turned out. We went to dinner and got ice cream for the kids being well behaved. Thursday we took the kids to the pumpkin patch. Apparently we picked their busiest day of the year this year because there were several schools there for field trips. But we had fun anyway. We grabbed lunch on the way home. Friday, Little Girl had to go back to school. I dropped off cookies for her class for her birthday. And Saturday was a normal day with grocery shopping and playing outside. And now today is Little Girl's actual birthday. She's 4 years old, and I can't believe how quickly time is going by. She's incredibly intelligent. She's a little sassy. She's detailed. And a little bit bossy. We love her so much.

My annual "All Things Halloween" event started last Tuesday. This is my month-long event where I feature reviews from Halloween-y genres (fantasy, paranormal, supernatural, sci-fi, horror, mystery, thriller, and suspense). Over the last few years I've had mostly fantasy books as I just haven't been in the mood for much horror, but still...these are books that can get you in the mood for Halloween.

Goodreads description--As a part-time PI and full-time grim reaper, Charley Davidson has asked a lot of questions throughout her life:
Why can I see dead people?
Who is the hot supernatural entity following me?
How do I get gum out of my sister’s hair before she wakes up?

But, “How do I trap not one malevolent god, but three?” was never among them. Until now. And since those gods are on earth to kill her daughter, she has little choice but to track them down, trap them, and cast them from this dimension.

There’s just one problem. One of the three stole her heart a very long time ago. Can the Razer, a god of absolute death and destruction, change his omniscient spots, or will his allegiances lie with his brothers?

Those are just a few of the questions Charley must answer, and quick. Add to that a homeless girl running for her life, an innocent man who’s been charged with murder, and a pendant made from god glass that has the entire supernatural world in an uproar, and Charley has her hands full. If she can manage to take care of the whole world-destroying-gods thing, we’re saved. If not, well…

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!
