Stacking the Shelves is Hosted by Tyngaโs Reviews
I was back to my normal reviewing schedule this week. Because of blogging on a time crunch, I was able to get a couple of books ahead of schedule, which was nice, but now I want to do even more! So I decided to participate in ARC August this week. You can check out my post HERE
Other than that, things have been good. This was a particularly busy and hectic week at work, so I am looking forward to just kicking back and relaxing this weekend.*
Side note: I am looking at new inspiration for a blog mini blog makeover. I figure if I am going to switch to tweak me v. 2 I should change some stuff up while I am at it. If you have any ideas or things that you love on blogs, let me know in the comments. And I will give you a (virtual) cookie ๐

Michelle, if you’re going to change your design, only do it a little. Do go changing the colours too much, and keep the circles in there – it’s your style, and I recognise it, okay? ๐ Glad you’ve managed to plan ahead a lot, so I expect some great posts, and I’ll try not to lurk and actually comment more, okay?<3
You got a lot of great books, congrats! And good luck with your ARC challenge, I know you will do well. ๐
As for changes? I have no idea! I’m the worst when it comes to things like that, it took me forever to decide on my design. ๐
Good luck with your ARC challenge!
As for changing, maybe more color contrast? Right now all the colors are so pale that reading can be a challenge. Also, whatever you do, do not get rid of the search bar! I detest blogs and sites without a search function. There, gave my two cents. ๐
I keep meaning to cut back and relax on blogging for a bit this summer but I haven’t managed to do that. LOL I just can’t seem to help myself!
Some lovely new books to relax with. Happy reading:)
I am doing ARC August also! I hope to get a few read this month I am so behind. You got some great looking books I hope you enjoy them all! ๐ Happy reading!

hummm… it is hard to suggest anything new for your blog because it is beautiful and easy to navigate the way it is. I love the soothing colors, the fonts, the layout.
Maybe I’d make the image in the “august review” section of your sidebar bigger. I also like when blogs have a roll or slider with their favorite books.
I love the cover for Kiss the Stars.
I’ve been trying to get a lot of reading done myself whilst I’ve been sick, and last week was a better week than usual, yet this week now that I can get things done I’ve been distracted with cleaning, organising, but it’s given me a break from reading which I’m hoping will get me in the mood to want to read by the end of the wee.
I don’t recognise any of the books you got this week, but I hope you enjoy them all.
