Stacking The Shelves is a meme hosted by Reading Reality all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!

The Cozy Mystery Book Blast and the Witchy Stuff Your Kindle Day have both been this week, so I am not going to even think about what books I’ve picked up in those because a) it would take forever and b) I’m honestly not even sure I know!

I went to Exeter on Monday which, naturally, meant I ended up in Waterstones (even though I had not at all planned on going in!) I was really good and only came out with 3 books – one of them was even one of the two I decided I’d buy once I’d crossed the threshold! I’d hoped to buy Tessa Bailey’s Fangirl Down and Juno Dawson’s Her Majesty’s Royal Coven – but sitting next to that was Apprentice to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer which I have heard so many good things about. I picked them both up, but also knew I wanted to check out the sports section to see if there were any books about tennis/Wimbledon. Nothing stood out, but the sports section is right by the history section and Ancestors by Alice Roberts started waving at me. I knew I could only afford 3 rather than 4 so after a very long deliberation between Her Majesty’s Royal Coven and Apprentice to the Villain, the latter came home with me.

Tessa Bailey – Fangirl Down
Hannah Nicole Maehrer – Assistant to the Villain
Alice Roberts – Ancestors
