Stacking The Shelves (Reading Reality) and The Sunday Post (Caffeinated Reviewer) are both blog memes about sharing the books we’re adding to the shelves and sharing news of the week ahead.

Nothing new in terms of purchases this week, unless you count a trio of Friday Freebies that I’m really excited about.

Keeping with the theme of threes, a trio of exciting review titles this week.

Throne in the Dark (Deluxe Edition) by A. K. Caggiano

November 4, 2025

For fans of Kimberly Lemming and The Princess Bride comes the first book in AK Caggiano’s Villains & Virtues series, following the son of a demon on his way to fulfill his dark legacy, and the blonde pickpocket he accidentally magically links to him along the way.

The Duke by Anna Cowan

April 28, 2026

A sapphic regency romance about the duke who fears nothing… until the woman she never forgot walks through the door and brings her to her knees.

Trust No One by James Rollins

February 24, 2026

From the #1 New York Times bestselling master of international intrigue comes a shocking new stand-alone thriller that thrusts a group of university students, falsely accused of murder, into a treacherous hunt across Europe, all to unlock the secrets buried within a centuries-old book that could change humankind forever.

Haven’t had a lot of time for reading this week, as I’ve been working on a project that I’m hoping I’ll be able to formally announce this week. However, I did finish Among the Burning Flowers by Samantha Shannon (review to come), and I’m just racing through The Witch Roads by Kate Elliott (and loving it).
