Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga's Reviews. Each week bloggers post the books they purchased or received. This month I got two e-books and four hardcovers and three paperbacks.
The two e-books I got this month are:
1. Sofia Khan Is Not Obliged (Sofia Khan, #1) by Ayisha Malik
I already read this one and really enjoyed it!
2. The Alchemists of Loom (Loom Saga #1) by Elise Kova
I also got four gorgeous hardcovers this month!
3. The Essex Serpent by Sarah Perry
4. The Butcher's Hook by Janet Ellis
5. Daughter of the Pirate King (Daughter of the Pirate King #1) by Tricia Levenseller
I really enjoyed this book! I love pirates and I'm actually shocked there aren't more pirate stories out there! This YA novel was so entertainting, so much sass! I loved it!
6. Strange the Dreamer (Strange the Dreamer #1) by Laini Taylor
Really excited about this one! I got this in the March Fairyloot box!
Lastly, I also got three paperbacks:
7. The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
I really wanted to read this book before the TV show comes out! Also, since I read The Blind Assassin, I've wanted to read more of Atwood's work. I actually managed to read The Handmaid's Tale this month and it was incredible!
8. The Unseen World by Liz Moore
I've heard great things about this one! Can't wait to read it!
9. The Golem and the Jinni (The Golem and the Jinni #1) by Helene Wecker
I've been wanting to read this for quite some time now. I eventually bought this after reading The Forbidden Wish by Jessica Khoury and truly enjoying the jinni elements. So I just couldn't resist adding The Golem and the Jinni to my library!

Everyone should read The Handmaid's Tale. It's a classic that I have held on to over the years. I also bought Strange The Dreamer, but haven't read it yet. I did enjoy The Alchemist of Loom and Daughter Of The Pirate King. Have fun reading your new books.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I absolutely agree with you on The Handmaid's Tale! It's amazing! I'm currently reading Strange the Dreamer and really enjoying it! Can't wait to try The Alchemist of Loom!

DeleteI love the cover of The Essex Serpent. Laini Taylor! I have been meaning to give her books a try. I am glad you enjoyed Daughter of the Pirate King--it does sound good. The Golem and the Jinni has been on my TBR pile for awhile now. I really need to read it. So many good books out there! I hope you enjoy your new ones. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
Thank you! You should definitely try Laini Taylor's books! I think they're fantastic! The Golem and the Jinni has been on my TBR for a long time as well, but I finally decided to get it! Really excited about that one!
DeleteI loved The Handmaid's Tale. Read it twice and saw a movie from the 90s...and now it's coming to Netflix, I heard.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about Sofia Khan...and hope you enjoy it. Thanks for visiting my blog, and have a great week.
Thank you! I loved The Handmaid's Tale as well! Yes, it's coming to Netflix this month! I haven't watched the 90s movie yet, but I hope to do so soon. And I really liked Sofia Khan!
DeleteThere are so many fab looking books on this haul. I hope you love them all. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou got a wide range of books!! I always love acquiring books that I already know I love. I hope the ones that you haven't read yet turn out to be hits too!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I hope so too!
DeleteSo many pretties! I love the UK cover of Strange the Dreamer - I almost want to buy a UK version, in addition to the USA version. :D I adored Strange the Dreamer, and Daughter of the Pirate King! I hope you enjoy all of your new books!
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic week, Lynn. =)
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
I haven't read any of the books on your list but I do have quite a few of them on my TBR list. I hope you enjoy all of your new books!
ReplyDeleteI loved Daughter of the Pirate King! I need to get and read Strange the Dreamer and the Alchemist of Loom so many books never enough time :)
ReplyDeleteI loved it too! There need to be more pirate stories out there! I just finished Strange the Dreamer and it was absolutely amazing! One of my favourite books this year!
DeleteI love that cover for The Handmaid's Tale! I'm a huge fan of Margaret Atwood. The Blind Assassin is one of my favorites. The Robber Bride is probably my all-time fav, if you haven't read it yet. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the recommendation! I'll be picking up The Robber Bride next! Atwood has written so many books, I find it hard to decide which ones to read next.
DeleteOoh, looks like a great haul. I need to get Strange the Dreamer.
ReplyDeleteThanks! And you definitely should! I loved Strange the Dreamer!
