Stacking The Shelves: July 2017

Welcome back my loves,

We are sharing all the goodies that I got at the 57th Annual Library Book Sale in Southport CT.  I work just around the street from this library and I've been hyping this library book sale to everyone I know.  I love the sale and I know it benefits so many so I try to do my part.

Here are the goodies I hauled today, my plan was simple I went in with a general list of authors I wanted to grab if I saw their work and I knew which of their books I was missing because of my book list of all the backlog catalogs I want.

And that's just Day 1.  I work the following days of the sale however it's literally down the street so guess where I'll be during lunch??  Let me know if you have read any of these books and share you're recent purchases and let's gush about our books in the comments.

Then because my budget had some room in it I got a few books from Amazon:

I got all three books from the DIMILY series, I read this series a few months ago and I absolutely fell in love with the characters and their stories and the truths they shared. I needed the have them on my shelves as well (I got two as ebook arcs & purchased the 3rd as a ebook as well).  

• Did I Mention I Love You??
• Did I Mention I Need You?
• Did I Mention I Miss You??

I also picked up a non fiction book called the 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman. So many people I know have been talking about this and I'm trying to understand what is going on so I snagged a copy for myself.  

Then I snagged a few ebooks over the past few weeks as well.  Including:

Honor Bound by Joey W Hill. I read several of the books in this series and I realized I was missing this one and I'm reading it right now and it's soooo good so far.  

Happy Haulin' and Happy Reading my loves see you next week.
