Book Haul, Mailbox Monday, Stacking the Shelves




I have another book haul that I would like to share with you. I will also be linking to the Mailbox Monday and Stacking the Shelves weekly posts. This week is a round up of books purchased through Kobo*, Advanced Reading Copies and a library book. 

 Books Purchased

 American War by Omar El Akkad
Brother by David Chariandy
The Golden House by Salman Rushdie

 Advanced Reading Copies

 Alternate Side by Anne Quindlen
Red Clocks by Leni Zumas

 Library Books

 The Hate You Give by Angie Thomas

 I'm picked up American War since it is on the shortlist for Canada Reads. I'm hoping to get through all the books on the list but I'm not sure I will. Brother was on the longlist and it was on sale through Kobo, I couldn't resist. I'm really hoping to get to Red Clocks soon because that book has been so buzzed about. I hope you have a great reading week!

    The Hate U Give is on my Wish/TBR list too. American War really has my interest though. It is the sort of story like to read. Hope you enjoy your new books. Happy Reading!

    Great list of books. I guess I am a first time visitor because I like that you broke it down, purchases, arcs and library books! I love using the local library at times too!

    So many of these sound so great.

    I read The Hate U Give last year and, while it isn't the best written book in the world, it was still brilliant and so important. Absolutely worth the hype. I hope you enjoy it.
