Stacking the Shelves is Hosted by Tynga’s Reviews
I have been busy and tired and trying my hardest not to get sick. I want a vacation. haha But I have also been trying to cut down on my amount of review books. My calendar is looking pretty full for the summer. And I know that I still need to go back and add a bunch more review books to my schedule, so yea this week I took in less books than usual, and I was pretty pleased about that.
I am also reviving an old project that I had where I provide authors and publishers with a list of book bloggers that are looking for book to review. (Its not a tour company or any kind of paid service, it is just a read-only form that I provide to people that send me review requests)
If you would like more information on that, or if you are a book blogger looking for books to review, you can check out this post.

You got some amazing books this week. I see lots of pretty covers. Orphan Queen was amazing and I hope you love it as much as I did.
Grace @ Books of Love
I love that feature to share with the authors/publishers! It’s great for bloggers just starting out!
Losing It sounds interesting. I am going to go see if it’s still free. Have a good week!
I think I signed up previously for your review service as I occasionally get emails from authors saying they got my name from you. I’d forgotten all about it. 😀
Good luck with cutting down on your review books. It can be a challenge! But you’re doing well with the Clean Sweep challenge and that helps. 🙂
I really need to get The Orphan Queen, I’ve heard such amazing things about it! I hope you enjoy all of your new books 😀
I think I need a vacation too! So glad it is almost summer. 😉
Congrats on all the great books and good luck with the book project!
Some good ones — some I’ve not seen before. I just posted my review of Illusionarium today (no spoilers), if you are interested. Thanks for stopping by.
I loved The Orphan Queen and Illusionarium! I hope you enjoy all of your new books when you read them!
Thanks for visiting my blog! Have a great week 🙂
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Wow, very nice haul! I still have to read The Murder Complex, I hope to get to it soon! And The Orphan Queen sounds really, really good! Hope you enjoy all of these, and have a fabulous week!
Oooh, Killer Within looks awesome!
I’ve been trying to do that as well this year accept less review books, although then especially less books with deadlines, I haven’t been doing too well, but I am not feeling stressed or rushed by the amount of books I accept. So I figure it’s good then.
I like your idea of making a list of bloggers who accept book for reviews. That way if you don’t accept a book for review, you can still help te author. I have done some marketing assistant work for an author once and one of the reviewers I contacted send me a pdf with contact info of other bloggers. It was nice!
I hope you have a great week and enjoy your new books!
