Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews where we get to gab on about the books we've won, bought, or otherwise received in the past week.
This is another two week post. This past week I've had about four papers due and honestly, I have been otherwise distracted. But now I have a mental break for a while, and I can get back to the blogosphere. I hope you all had a lovely Valentine's Day, and if any of you are in So. Illinois, I hope you are okay through that weather!

What about you?
What a great haul! All these covers are so gorgeous, it's hard not to sit and stare! Of course they all look amazing too, I'd want to read them all if I were a faster reader xD Right now I'm still working my way through Mosh Pit, and I love it so far, thanks for the recommendation babe :D.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to new recipes with those new cookbooks, I have a feeling we're going to have to start a cookbook fund to get all of the physical copies xD
That is a thing that will happen, yes.
DeleteWow! Looks like you got a great haul this week. Scintillate looks really intriguing - enjoy all your new reads!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteAwesome wins!!! I always wanted to read Talented. happy reading.
ReplyDeleteMe too, and it came up again on Netgalley. I was so excited to get approved.
DeleteYou can't go wrong with chocolate, right? It. is. life. Looks like you've scored very well this week! I'm pretty interested in Scintillate, though for the life of me I can NOT spell that. -_- I always have to copy-n-paste it. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteExactly! It's the food of the gods. And it's okay, I can never spell it either!
DeleteNice haul. I haven't read any of these, but I hope you enjoy all that you got.

DeleteI'm jealous of the Reese's stuff. My girlfriend sent me my favourite flowers, but you can't eat lilies...
ReplyDeleteLove some of the covers on your new books, they look really interesting. Enjoy!
"You can't eat lilies" is quite possibly the best V-day quote I've heard.

DeleteI love Amy Spalding. Ink is Thicker is really good. I'm curious about Deer in Headlights. I debated on that one, but am trying to not request anything unless I'm DYING to get my hands on it. Great haul and happy reading!
ReplyDeleteNetgalley has a tendency to deny me for all my requests, or approve all of them at once. It puts me in book debt, haha.
DeleteThis is a big haul! I'm curious about In is Thicker, I have some of Trisha's books as well, The cover for Scintillate is so pretty too.
