Sunday Post 2nd October 2016

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted at Caffeinated Book Reviewer, it's a chance to post a recap on the past week, show the books we have received and share what we plan for the coming week. Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga's Reviews and the aim is to show our newest books and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops or downloaded on to their e-reader. As always you can click on any of the pictures to be taken to the Goodreads page for that book if you're interested in finding out more about it.

Books We Got This Week:

Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo: My most anticipated read of the year easily! I am almost nervous to finish reading this!

The Castaways by Elin Hilderbrand: If you read my review of The Rumour by Elin Hilderbrand you'll know I was impressed so when I saw this in a charity shop I picked it up. 

White Lies by Jayne Ann Krentz: I've enjoyed the books she has written under Amanda Quick and have been wanting to read her other books so I picked this up along with The Castaways.

The Lost Girl of Astor Street by Stephanie Morrill: I wished for this on Netgalley and was surprised the publisher granted the wish! It's not released until February but I may read it a bit sooner because it sounds amazing!
Timekeeper by Tara Sim: I was approved for this on Netgalley and I am really intrigued by it. Definitely want to see how the time mechanics work and find out more about the world. 

Reading Update:

Ann:

Love Lies and Spies by Cindy Anstey: 5 stars, I was in a bit of a reading slump recently and almost every book I started I got bored of but when I started reading this book I just loved the plot and the characters. It was a great book! I will have a full review up next week.

Clare:

Hard Rules by Lisa Renee Jones: 3 stars, This got off to a slow start but by the end I was definitely invested. I am looking forward to continuing the series. I will have a review up for this soon!

Sting by Sandra Brown: 4 stars, A thrilling and tense read with plenty of twists. I wasn't as surprised by the twists as I would have liked but I did really care about the characters. I am excited to read more by Sandra Brown. Again, there will be a full review coming soon!
