July 2020 Additions to my eBook Stockpile




Evidently, I must be hardwired to add somewhere in the neighborhood of a dozen new eBooks to my Kindle each month. Between the publishers and Amazon, I don't have a prayer. What do you think? Do you think there will be any month in the future when I will have no additions to report? See. I told you! At least most of the time I'm getting them at excellent prices.

I've grouped together the new additions to my digital security blanket by genre/subgenre, and if you want to know more about any of the titles, just click on them and you will be taken to Amazon US for more information. (I'm just a Kindle owner. I am not affiliated with Amazon.)

Let's see if I chose anything that tickles your fancy, shall we?


~~~Thriller~~~

The Golden Cage by Camilla Läckberg. Set in Sweden. My review.
Red Christmas by Reginald Hill. Set in England.


~~~Historical Fiction~~~

The Vineyards of Champagne by Juliet Blackwell. Set in France.


~~~Science Fiction/Paranormal~~~

Planet Pluto by B.C. Chase. Set in outer space.
 A Fugue in Time by Rumer Godden. Set in England.


~~~Non-Fiction~~~



~~~Historical Mystery~~~

Ghost Swifts, Blue Poppies and the Red Star by Nathan Dylan Goodwin. Set in Belgium.


~~~Private Investigator~~~

Hunting the VA Slayer by C.M. Wendelboe. Set in Wyoming.


~~~Police Procedural~~~

Desperate Creed by Alex Kava. Set in Alabama and Illinois.
The Creak on the Stairs by Eva Björg Ægisdóttir. Set in Iceland.
The Boy With the Narwhal Tooth by Christoffer Petersen. Set in Greenland. My review.


Well, how did I do? Did any of these make it to your own lists? Which ones? Inquiring minds would love to know!

  1. These look great, Cathy. I'm especially interested in the Gurewitsch. I love history, and I haven't been reading enough of it lately. This is a fascinating topic, too.

    1. I've been feeling the urge to read more history myself, Margot, and Eleanor Roosevelt has always been a hero of mine.

  2. I love Hill's Dalziel & Pascoe books and have read a couple of his standalones, but not Red Christmas. Eleanor Roosevelt intrigues me, so I'm adding that one and the D-Day Girls to my list.

    1. I thought you might be interested in the two non-fiction additions, Jenclair.

  3. That's quite a haul, Cathy. Can't say that I have any of these or have read any of them, but I have spotted a couple of them that deserve a look over at Amazon.

    I'm definitely acquiring fewer books right now than before all the brick and mortar bookstores shut their doors. Only 6 in July, and three of those were freebies from Amazon. I did buy two e-books at full price, and received an actual physical ARC in the mail. But that was it. And 6 is the most I've acquired in a given month since February (the good old days).

    1. The number of physical ARCs I receive has dropped way down since the pandemic. A lot of times, I can get digital copies, so it doesn't really bother me.

  4. The police procedurals interest me.

    1. It might take a while, so you'd better not hold your breath!
