Library
I'm really trying to cut down on my library hauls because I'm behind on ARC reading... womp, womp! But I did pick up Alienated by Melissa Landers, because I'm addicted to the CW TV show Star-Crossed and so this was recommended to me.
What's new on your shelf this week?
What are your diverse picks for #WeNeedDiverseBooks?
I also got Landline this week. I'm very excited to read it. It looks like you've got some other great books this week too. Enjoy! :-)

Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI have Alienated too!! I'm trying not to borrow/request too many books atm, becuase my life is too busy. (Which is so sad...I LOVE reading. But I don't like overwhelming TBRs, that's for sure. ;) So many beautiful covers on your stack too!
ReplyDeleteMy StS!
Same here! I was banning the library until I got my ARCs under control but I really love Star-Crossed and so I was told this is a must read. Let me know what you think of it!
DeleteOh my, I am super excited for Landline! I really want to read Alienated - I have it on my Kindle, but I just haven't got around to reading it yet.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading and have a good weekend :)
Milka thanks for stopping by. I'm hoping to squeeze these in before the end of the month... we'll see!
DeleteI like the cover For Deflector. That series looks awesome. Landline looks really good. Anything by Rainbow Rowell is really good. and enjoy your new books.
