Shelf Space Updates
Every week I like to take a look back and see what books I have
read, which books I have added to my TBR (to-be read) pile, and which books I
have tossed, i.e. decided I will unfortunately not have enough time in this
life to read. You’ll notice that this
last section will not appear very often, for two very important reasons. I LOATHE getting rid of books and absolutely
hate admitting that I can’t read them all.

The Winters by Lisa Gabriele
Inspired by Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca, aspellbindingly suspenseful novel set in the moneyed world of the Hamptons, about
secrets that refuse to remain buried and consequences that can’t be escaped
After a whirlwind romance, a young woman returns
to the opulent, secluded Long Island mansion of her new fiancé Max Winter—a
wealthy politician and recent widower—and a life of luxury she’s never known.
But all is not as it appears at the Asherley estate. The house is steeped in
the memory of Max’s beautiful first wife Rebekah, who haunts the young woman’s
imagination and feeds her uncertainties, while his very alive teenage daughter
Dani makes her life a living hell. She soon realizes there is no clear place
for her in this twisted little family: Max and Dani circle each other like
cats, a dynamic that both repels and fascinates her, and he harbors political
ambitions with which he will allow no woman—alive or dead—to interfere.

As the soon-to-be second Mrs. Winter grows more
in love with Max, and more afraid of Dani, she is drawn deeper into the
family’s dark secrets—the kind of secrets that could kill her, too. The Winters
is a riveting story about what happens when a family’s ghosts resurface and
threaten to upend everything.

None this week, I have stayed strong and optimistic; however, my
TBR pile grew more than my read pile, so I am obviously losing this battle.
