I don´t know since how long I´ve been wanting Maggie Hall´s The Conspiracy of Us. I kind of fell in love with the cover a long time ago & now I am holding it in my hands *happy dance*
The second book of Alice Clayton´s The Hudson Valley Series is one, I am waiting for since about June this year. After I´ve read Nuts it was crystal clear to me, that I had to have this second book. And with that cover, who could resist?
The last one in this week´s Stacking The Shelves is a thriller, that was sent to me by the publisher without any notice upfront. I reviewed the first book of the Klara Walldéen Series by Joakim Zander some months ago and this one sounds as promising as the previous book was. It will be the next I am reading, that´s for sure.

Some want her dead.To unravel the mystery putting her life in danger, Avery must follow a trail of clues from the monuments of Paris to the back alleys of Istanbul with two boys who work for the Circle – beautiful, volatile Stellan and mysterious, magnetic Jack.

The answer, of course, is … cheese.Natalie´s favorite part of the week is spending Saturday morning at the Union Square Farmer´s Market, where she indulges her love of all things handsome. Oscar Mendoza, owner of the Bailey Falls Creamery and purveyor of the finest artisanal cheeses the Hudson Valley has to offer, is tall, dark, mysterious, and a bit oblivious. Or so she thinks. But that doesn´t stop Natalie from fantasizing about the size of his, ahem, milk can.Romance is churning, passion is burning, and something incredible is rising to the top. Could it be … love?
