Stacking the Shelves is a weekly haul meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews & Reading Reality. It is about sharing enthusiasm for the new books added to our shelves – be it physical, ebooks, galleys or borrowed from the library.
Mostly 2020 releases, and some of them being debuts, added to my shelves this week!

Spell Hacker by M K England
TBH, I just saw the author’s name and added it, because I loved her The Disasters. This book is about a group of teens doing a magical heist in a society where the use of magic is heavily restricted and comodified
Don’t Call the Wolf by Aleksandra Ross
In this story partly inspired by a Polish fairytale, a forest queen makes a deal with a young dragonslayer to defeat the Golden Dragon and his hordes of monsters.
All Our Twisted Secrets by Diana Urban
“A group of teens with a secret pushed into a deadly game” is so formulaic, it is practically its own genre of YA thrillers at this point, but I am helpless against its siren call.
Day Zero by Kelly DeVos
The daughter of a doomsday prepper has to save her siblings from an outbreak of violent bombings throughout the country, while evading authorities who are blaming her father for it.
Clique Bait by Ann Valett
A girl decides to ‘go undercover’ to take revenge on the popular kids who ruined her best friend’s life, by gathering dirt on them to reveal to everyone.

Shelved on Goodreads
Down Comes the Night by Louisa M Alcott
“a gothic romance set in a Guillermo del Toro-esque world. The book is about a healer torn between duty and her heart, a soldier broken by his crimes, and the darkness that threatens to consume them” Releases in 2021 but got to add it now!
8 new books shelved this week!
