Sundays In Bed With… Stacking the Shelves

11 May 2025 By fakesteph 10 Comments

Sundays in bed with is hosted by Kate at Midnight Book Girl. This week I am listening to the audio version of one of my favorite books:

I just got the Galaxy S5 and it’s amazing, but I’m still figuring out how to use it. However, the first thing I did was to make sure I could work my Audible app. If this was twitter, I would hashtag this “priorities”.

 

Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.

The last few weeks I picked up a few books, all of which I’m excited for.

Noggin by John Corey Whaley - I was already curious about this one, but Jen sent it to me because she said it was my kind of weird. I just started it, but I’m only about 20 pages in.

The Plot Thickens by Noah Lukeman and Self-Editing for Fiction Writers by Renni Browne and Dave King - I borrowed both of these from the library after seeing them on a list of great books for writers. I have too many WIPS (all finished drafts, at least) and really focus on revising it this summer, so hopefully I’ll be able to renew these a few times. I LOVED Lukeman’s The First Five Pages, so I have high hopes for this one.

Far From You by Tess Sharpe - Andye of Reading Teen offered her unread ARCs to bloggers who would review them on her site. I’ve been looking forward to reading this one and I love Reading Teen, so I was really excited about her post. I’m starting it after I finish Noggin.

Curtsies and Conspiracies by Gail Carriger - I borrowed this from the library, but I might actually buy this from audible. We’ll see.

The Dare by Hannah Jayne (not pictured) is an an e-galley. Thank you Sourcebooks Fire and NetGalley.

Talker 25 (not pictured) by Joshua McCune - I purchased this for Kindle because it sounds amazing.

Dortothy Must Die (not pictured) by Danielle Paige- I bought this as a gift, but then decided to keep it. Oops.

Writing the Other (not pictured) by Nisi Shawl and Cynthia Ward- I purchased this because it was recommended during the We Need Diverse Books campaign.

    I think Audible was my first app download when I got my phone last year too!

    I really loved Far From You, so I’ll be interested in hearing your thoughts!

      I’ll text you while I read, maybe. If that is okay with you.

    Ooh Noggin! I really want to read that. I think it’s going to be my kind of weird. I have Talker 25 on my list as well. Awesome haul, thanks for visiting mine!

    Don’t feel badly about not knowing how to use the Galaxy 55. I don’t even know what it is! *lol selfie*. I did listen to part of an audiobook while waiting on a prescription this last week. Love the cover of Paper Towns!

      I love it, too! It’s weird listening to it because I read it right after graduating college and it really informed my 20s.

    Dorothy Must die sounds so intriguing and twisted. I hope you like it! Happy Reading!
    Here are my newest additions.

    “If this was twitter, I would hashtag this “priorities”.” LOL!

    I’m excited that Paper Towns is going to be a movie, but apprehensive, too. It’s my favorite John Green book and I don’t want it messed up!

    I need to read some writing books… I have tons of WIPs, too, but I have yet to finish a draft. Eeek! But I did get a new idea the other day that I think I might work on for Camp NaNo in July. We’ll see how that goes.

    Hope you love all these books!
