Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews. It's an opportunity for everyone to share the books which we've added to our shelves.
We had to return some books to the library this week, and as usual, we couldn't resist browsing around and leaving with at least as many books as we had just brought back.
For Review:
Persephone by Kaitlin BevisThanks to Kaitlin Bevis!
Ally's Books:
Borrowed:
The Goddess Test by Aimée CarterThe Peculiars by Maureen Doyle McQuerry

Lee's Books:

I'm supposed to be on a strict book buying ban right now, but Amazon had a great Cyber Monday deal on both of these hardcovers—Slam was $4, and Spirit Bound was $2.66!

When we don't go to the library looking for certain books, that's when all the good ones we want to read are in. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteWow! Great haul of books! So many that are on my TBR.

We were really lucky at the library this week- a lot of new books have been added. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteAs usual, you had a great week! I wasn't the biggest fan of The Goddess Test, but enjoyed it enough that I read the next one, and have the final book from NetGalley. I hope Ally likes it more than I did!
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
My StS Post :)
The Goddess Test is on my TBR, too, but I've read some mixed reviews, so I'll wait and see what Ally thinks before I read it. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteGreat Haul this week, Girlies! I don't even know where to begin . . . Imagine that, me speechless when it comes to books! O_o
ReplyDeleteStopping through with My STS!
I hope you're all doing exceptionally well! =D

We could have loaded up even more at the library but forced ourselves to stop because we still had books at home, lol. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI really enjoyed Going Too Far and signed copies are so cool. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI'm really excited to read it. I was beyond thrilled when I saw that it was signed! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteOooooh The Name of the Star, the Goddess Test, Tiger Lily, Going Too Far.... I want to read pretty much all the books you got this week :) Enjoy your pretties!
ReplyDeleteThe Name of the Star was incredible! It was dark, thrilling, yet also funny in spots. I hope you get the chance to read it, too. Thanks for stopping by!

I'm trying to hold out on reading Days of Blood and Starlight until I buy a copy. I also want to reread Daughter of Smoke and Bone before reading the sequel. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteOhh I recently got Persephone too! I hope we both enjoy it. :) And you got The Goddess Test as well! Looks like a Greek mythology week! :D

I love the cover of Persephone and hope that it's an awesome read for all of us. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteGreat haul! Really enjoyed The Goddess Test and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Spirit Bound. Adrian Ivashkov is fantastic in that one! The Iron Fey series is a favorite of mine too. I am so jealous you got a signed Jennifer Echols book! I've become a big fan. I still need to read Going Too Far but I heard it is one of the best. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteMy Stack
We're all big fans of Adrian, too! I had hoped that some of the other VA books would be on sale, too, but only Spirit Bound was. Oh well-I just have to buy the other 5 books in the series eventually. Thanks for stopping by!
