Stacking the Shelves | February 2026

Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews and Reading Reality that highlights all the books you've recently added to your shelves. Here's all the books I hauled in February!

I only added three physical books to my TBR last month, two of them were brand new releases that I saw in the supermarket for such a good price so I had to get them. The other was a pre-order from last year that actually arrived a week early and how gorgeous is it's cover!

• Meet the Newmans by Jennifer Niven 

• The Future Saints by Ashley Winstead

• Spider, Spider by L.C. Winter 

 

As always, I bought too many eBooks but if we think about it in terms of girl math then because I bought all of them on sale then I actually kind of saved myself money, right?

I also made a trip to the library this month after not having gone for ages and this time I tried to go for books that I hadn't heard of before. I love using the library for lesser known reads as it means I get to try them out without spending any money!
