Stacking The Shelves is hosted at Tynga’s Reviews and is 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!
Soooo… What has been the ARC damage since my last STS post four weeks ago? My ARC requests are still closed down as I was in need of a break from ARCs, but of course there will always be a few titles that slip between the cracks. xD Speaking of those, I simply couldn’t resist requesting a copy of Exit after Nicki’s review and to my surprise (delight!) I was approved! I also needed to get a copy of Lost Souls as I enjoyed the previous two books of the series and I don’t want to get behind. Afterwards, I somehow hit that request button before I could stop myself when I read the blurb of The Family Tree… Then again, I can never resist serial killer stories, and especially if it’s a fresh angle.
I couldn’t resist joining the Orenda blog tour for Hotel Cartagena either, both because I love the series in general, it has a drug cartel element AND it’s partly set in a city I have great memories of. What more to wish for? I also ended up signing up for the blog tour of Honey Girl as it sounds fantastic and I’ve been in the mood for contemporaries/romance stories lately in the first place.
Last but not least, I participated in Babelio‘s Masa Critica Argentina program again last December and won a physical copy of Los Plebeyos for review… There was a delay in the actual sending of the book and I still haven’t received it yet, but better late then never right? (If it actually arrives one day of course. xD)

Thanks for the heads up on Chris Merritt’s new book, I had missed it and am enjoying the series. I hope you enjoy all of these Yvo. I am itching to head back over to NG to request a couple more of these. I must restrain myself.

I feel you! I’m trying to stay away from Netgalley so I can actually get my pending shelf below 5 again… But it’s not easy to resist temptation haha. Lost Souls sounds like another good one!

I am trying to get my ratio up to 70%, it is at 60% right now. I won’t get there if I keep requesting though.

The balance is so tricky! I over requested when I first signed up and it took me a long time to get back on track… That’s why I prefer having less than 10 pending books on my shelves now (although it won’t the the first time things spin out of control anyway haha).

I was considering doing the blog tour for Honey Girl too, but I’m trying to make this year as stress free as possible and not really request ARCs and focus on ARCs from last year I never got to, so I decided not to do it. I hope you enjoy all of these books!

I’ve been on the fence whether to join as well! But in the end I couldn’t resist Honey Girl as I keep hearing fantastic things about it…
