Sherry’s Shelves #22 – Books & Fun

Posted on October 19, 2014 by fundinmental

Sherry’s Shelves is my weekly update, where I will recap what I have been doing for the past week: October 12 – October 18, 2014.

We have been having wonderful fall weather here in sunny Florida.

The pool is still open and I have been enjoying splashing around.

I hope you are enjoying the season.

  Doesn’t it though? As soon as I saw it, I new I had to snag it. Books, books and more books. LOL

Oh, we have no books in common. That’s cool – there are so very many books out there. If we all read the same books the world would get dull. Glad you’re enjoying fall in FL. Up here in New England it’s been warm and if I had a pool and it was heated I could still be in it!

  So true. Thanks for visiting, Stephanie.

My uncle lives in Florida and he swears that October is the best time for the beach and I do have to agree with him! Good job on no review books! I’m trying to slow it down but it’s so hard. Enjoy your new books and have a great week!

  I do love the fall here on the Gulf Coast. The weather is great and the sky is clear of haze. Makes for some great outdoor time, shell collecting and photo taking, especially.
Kimberly on October 19, 2014 at 12:12 pm said:

Phobic looks awesome, congrats and OMG..BUDGET BODY MOVERS..I want it. LOL So love the title and yep it sums it all up. Have a wonderful week Sherry. Keep finding these great books.

Greg Hill on October 19, 2014 at 1:14 pm said:

Okay even though I’m enjoying fall up here in the midwest I’m a little jealous of the pool thing. 🙂 That sounds pretty good right about now. Looks like a good slate of books, curious about Wild Born and Budget Body Movers… what a title.

  This is a great time of year to go to the beach and look for shells. I love living surrounded by water. I hope you found something to add to your reading shelf. Thanks for stopping in, Greg.
Lisa Mandina on October 19, 2014 at 7:49 pm said:

I haven’t heard of most of these, but that cover of Phobic definitely draws me in! I have to add it to my TBR list!! Thanks for visiting my STS post earlier.

  Isn’t it to “die” for. LOL
Karen B on October 19, 2014 at 9:18 pm said:

Great haul! Congratulations for winning Phobic, I have been seeing this book everywhere. High Water looks great, I can’t add anymore to my TBR list. It is pathetic. I am also on the tour for The Executioner. I am gonna have to come back here and read what you think of it. I am about half way done reading it now…
- fundinmental on October 20, 2014 at 8:05 am said:
  
  I will be reviewing it Friday. I cannot help myself with free books. I try to only choose ones that really appeal to me. My TBR is overrun and who knows IF I will ever read them all. LOL
Laura Thomas on October 19, 2014 at 9:46 pm said:

Got some good ones this week! I’m curious about some of the books you’ll be featuring next week and especially your review! Be seeing ya!
- fundinmental on October 20, 2014 at 8:06 am said:
  
  I have tried to find some creeptastic ones and will be sprinkling some more reviews here and there. Always a pleasure, Laura.
