Stacking the Shelves – August 1st, 2026

—

Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Reading Reality. It is all about showcasing all the books you are adding to your shelves, whether it be physical, electronic or audio. As long as it can be enjoyed in some shape or form, it belongs on Stacking the Shelves!

This week is a shorter post as I have only added 4 additional books to my TBR. I had one NetGalley approval, two recommendations and one sequel added. All eBooks.

Clicking on the cover, will take you to Goodreads 🙂

The Wedding Favor by Sharon M. Peterson is my NetGalley eBook. It is set to publish on September 14th of 2026 and will be included on Kindle Unlimited. Thank you to Bookouture and Sharon for the approval!

The Earl Next Door by Ashtyn Newbold was recommended by Goodreads and it seems to be a lovely regency romance so I snatched that one up.

How to Survive Camping: The Man With No Shadow by Bonnie Quinn is a bit different than what I normally read. Per the synopsis, it is a Welcome to Nightvale like book, akin to Creepy Pasta. I used to listen to both a lot there for a while so I am hoping to jump into the horror theme a bit. I saw this on a TTT post, I forget who though (my apologies!!)

The fourth installment to the Emma M. Lion series by Beth Brower I added as well since I am about to start reading this one. I am hoping to finish out that series pretty soon 🙂

● About Me

Hello! I am Ashley and I simply love to read, and hope you do to!
I am currently 29 years old and living in the state of Texas, USA.

My favorite genres to read and review include romance, fantasy, mystery, and many subgenres of those as long as it is clean. I mainly get my books from my Kindle Unlimited membership, but I also found myself checking out library books on Libby as well.

As you can see, I do not solely post book reviews, I also love posting daily prompt writing, as well as stuff that is going on in my life currently. That being said, my passion is reading and reviewing books to my heart’s content, so hopefully that is something you are also interested in.

I do have a Goodreads where you can follow if you desire (no pressure!) I also have a StoryGraph, of which you can follow me here.
