Stacking the Shelves [48]



Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews where we get to show off the books we've won, bought, or otherwise received in the past week. If a book catches your eye, *click* to go to the Goodreads page of that book.

Hello again all. Take a deep breath with me- finals are over and there's no more packing! I'm finally settled back at home for the summer which means more time to read- and also presents. I haven't been home since Christmas, and I came home to a plethora of books that were sent to this address as opposed to my school address on the other side of the state. That being said, this is going to be a reaaaaaaaaaally long post. Sorry in advance!

  1. Holy hell you've got a massive haul, I'd be sleeping with those books as my blanket like Smaug if I were you lol I don't think there's a title in there that I don't think is interesting, I'm so jealous. I've only gotten one book this week, and wouldn't you know it I won it from one of your giveaways :) I received The Summer I Wasn't Me just in time for my birthday.

  2. Woo, I'm glad finals are over! That means more time to read right? :D

    I haven't read any of these books yet but I hope they're all amazing - I didn't fancy Dark Amelia although I'm waiting on more reviews of it, so I might end up reading it anyway. Love the font on A Creature of Moonlight though, I kind of want that (I'm a serious font hoarder). :D

    1. That is definitely what it means!

      I'm a sucker for things involving Shakespeare, so Dark Aemilia was one I needed to snag. And the font on A Creature of Moonlight IS gorgeous, that's the book I'm reading now.

      Thanks so much for the follow, heading to your blog now!

  5. Wow - that is a lot! I got Through to You a couple of weeks ago when I found it for a pound for a discount bookstore - I haven't read it yet, but it sounds pretty intriguing and it's fairly short too so I can read it quickly when I decide to do so :)

    Happy reading and have a good weekend!

  6. Wow!! You picked up a ton of books this week. I really want to read the Eve series by Anna Carey, but I haven't started it yet. Wait for You is another book I really want to read.

    I hope you enjoy all of your new books!!
