Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Reading Reality. It's a place to showcase any books I have purchased, borrowed, or been lucky enough to have been given an advance copy of.
Hope you find something that looks interesting to you or that makes you remember a favorite book you need to finish. Happy reading ya'll!
The Doctor's Wife by Myra McIlvain (A German Family Saga Book One)
Kindle Points: 99 Cents
This just looked interesting. It's about a woman who travels to Galveston, Texas and is abandoned by her employer. She ends up marrying the ship's physician and settles into the German population. Being from Texas myself and loving Galveston I thought I'd enjoy this. The author has written for many Texas publications and is a several generations Texan. It just looked unique and full of history. It's also part of a series which appeals to me.
A Precarious Homecoming by D.S. Lang (Arabella Stewart Historical Mystery Book One)
Kindle: Free this week
This is part of a series and I hadn't heard of the books or the author. The covers are really unique and pretty and the story looks interesting. Arabella, the heroine returns to her hometown to save her family resort and ends up working on a murder with her childhood friend who is now the Constable. It is set just after WW1 which I prefer over WW2 stories. There is another series by the author called Doro Banyon which she says is a little cozier than this more serious one.
The Virgin Widow by Anne O'Brien
Kindle: Free with points
I know this author well but hadn't heard of this book. It is about Anne Neville, Richard III's wife and Queen of England. I don't know why but I just love anything about her and really enjoyed my last book I read by Jean Plaidy. This is a popular author so I'm hoping I like this one. With my huge TBR file I don't know when I'll get to it but I'm glad to have it.
