Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews. It's an opportunity for everyone to share the new books that we've acquired.
The previous weekend, Lee and I were lucky enough to find ourselves in a Barnes & Noble. We haven't been to a legit bookstore in several years, relying on Amazon and the local library for our book addiction instead. We were obviously mesmerized as soon as we walked in. My grandmother, seeing me walk around with Les Misérables clutched to my chest, graciously offered to buy it for me. I accepted the offer and now have over 800 pages of Enjolras to indulge myself in; lucky me!

Really love Throne of Glass! You should read the novellas too, those are awesome!
ReplyDeleteI've wanted to read Throne of Glass for the longest time; I even considered using my meager allowance on purchasing it. Luckily, Lee, with her hawk-like vision, saw it in the library and kindly pointed it out for me.
DeleteStruck was okay to me. An interesting read and I also have the Indigo Spell :D I can't wait to start it! Awesome haul :)

My Haul!
I'm definitely going to have to borrow The Indigo Spell off of Lee. I can't wait to read it either! Thanks for stopping by! :)
DeleteRichelle Mead is awesome. I love all her books. Throne of Glass is awesome. You are going to want to buy your own copy after reading that book.

I actually did consider buying Throne of Glass, but I thought I would try it out first and borrow it from the library. I'm probably going to cave and buy it anyways. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteCongrats on winning Struck, It looks like such a good book. Can't wait to see what you think of it :)

DeleteI enjoyed Struck, and picked up Les Mis for my Kindle, although I don't know when I'll ever find time to read it.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading, ladies!

Yeah, I've wanted to read Throne of Glass for ages now. I've heard so many great things about it that I'm sure it's worth the wait. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteWow. Les Miserable is HUGE! I have it on my kindle, but seeing it visibly is another thing. I hope you enjoy getting through that. haha.
ReplyDeleteGreat haul you two, hope you enjoy! :)
It is a big book; I had fun carrying it about the store. I'm probably going to take forever reading it, but I'm excited all the same. Thanks for stopping by! :)
DeleteI have Les Miserables as a two book set and even they are huge. But, your hardback is much nicer!
ReplyDeleteAnd yay The Indigo Spell!
I didn't even know that Les Miserables came as a two book set. It must make it easier to read because of the size. I'm happy with my copy though! Thanks for stopping by! :)
DeleteI definitely need to read Throne of Glass . Enjoy your goodies. Happy reading :)

I only read the abridged version of Les Miz for school, and looking at Ally's copy, I never realized how much was cut out! And Bloodlines is one of my favorite series; the fourth book is also supposed to release later this year, and I couldn't be happier!
