Stacking the Shelves 14 (Mini Book Haul) – Alli the Book Giraffe
Hello readers! If you saw last week, I did an unhaul post. I made it a little bit more fun for myself and did the Book Unhaul Challenge. This week, I went to a used bookstore and sold some of the books, which allowed me to get a few more.
Mostly, I bought books for my future baby. I have bought WAY too many books for the baby already. I did get three new books for myself, so let’s talk about them!
Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Reading Reality. You can click the link to get all the details, but in short, it is for sharing your new books!
I read Big Little Lies back in 2021, and I saw it’s now a series. I decided to go ahead and pick myself up a copy in anticipation of the next book coming out in August.
Big Little Lies is a mystery book that starts with a murder, and then we time-jump back a year. I think if you liked Desperate Housewives back in the 2000’s, you’d love this book. They have very similar vibes.
A few months ago, I picked up the third book in the Heroes of Olympus series because I found it on sale, and now I finally have book two as well. I previously read both books one and two, but only owned book one.
I haven’t been doing very well on it, but I was trying to read through all these Riordan books in the Percy Jackson universe. I already reread the first 5 Percy Jackson books, and I read book one in the Kane Chronicles, but my reading of these books has been on hold for a while.
I’m happy to have this one to read in the future. Now, I only have books 4 and 5 left, along with the 5 Trials of Apollo books and the two new Percy Jackson books.
Click is a graphic novel series following a young girl named Olive. In each book, she faces a different problem. In Click, she has to participate in a school talent show and, throughout the book, tries to find herself. In book two, Camp, she goes to camp with a friend and is a very social person while her friend isn’t, which causes strain in their relationship.
I started book 3, Act, recently and hope to finish it this month. Act is about a school field trip that happens for her whole grade. She sees that some kids can’t afford to do it, which causes her to want to make a big change in policy.
I saw the bookstore had Clash, and I wasn’t sure which it was in the series, but it does happen to be book four! A big win for me. This series currently has 7 books, and I rarely see them on sale anywhere.
Happy blogging and bookish adventures! 📚🦒✨
