Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews, in which bloggers share the books and swag they've received in the past week!
So, what did I get in the week of Sunday, March 15th to Saturday, March 21st?
(all links to Goodreads are provided!)
In the mail:
Thank you, Penguin!
I've never heard of this one... does anyone want to read it?
I LOVED this book! I've read it, I have the ARC, and I got this via trade to have a matching set!
From NetGalley:
Whoop whoop! I loved Stolen Songbird!
From Amazon:
$0.99 sale! I loved It Started With A Scandal.
Errr... well... sale?
Wellllll... this is one of Racquel's favorites, and it was on sale... hehe
Avon has a bajillion romance novels on sale! Some of my favorites of all time. Go check it out! And for a list of historical romance novels on sale - HERE!
So I had the surgery on Monday! Everything went well, and the recovery has been successful, so far. I had the followup appointment on Friday, and my surgeon says I'm healing well, despite still being in a lot of pain.
This week has been rough, but hey, it's just spring break, right? -_- In any case, I'm so thankful for no infections. But I miss FOOD! Chocolate! I won't be back to solid foods for a while. BUT. Everything has been going well, and I'll be back in school on Monday!

Great haul! I bought Stolen Songbird last week because so many people have been raving about it. Seriously every blog I visit is talking about it. I'm pretty excited to read it! Enjoy all the new books!

YAY! It's really great! I only recently read it myself, honestly. But succumbing to peer pressure is a good thing, sometimes!
DeleteThank you!
Great news that your surgery and recovery are going well! Chocolate deprivation is the worst.
ReplyDeleteWowsers! Nice haul this week. Julie Ann Long's books look enticing. I haven't read one yet, but I have one that was gifted to me when I get around to it.
Thank you so much, Sophia! And OMG you must read one of JAL's books! Those three are $0.99 each at the moment :D
DeleteGlad that you're recovering! I got To All the Boys I've Loved Before last week :) Feel better and happy reading. My STS
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! And it's a lovely book, isn't it ^_^
DeleteGreat haul! I loved Nowhere But Here and To All the Boys I've Loved Before! I hope you start feeling better soon!
ReplyDeleteI haven't quite read NBH, but I also enjoyed TATBILB. Thank you so much, Christy!
DeleteYAY for the surgery going well and you recovering! No eating chocolate sounds like the most horrible thing ever, but at least you can drink some hot chocolate!
ReplyDeleteHooray for books on sale and for the Kindle so no worries about them taking space! ;)
And a big YAY for Hidden Huntress! I'm having the hardest time not ignoring the rest of my ARCs and reading that one!!
I'm glad nothing terrible happened! It's still less than a week since the surgery was completed, but I think the worst is over.
DeleteI hope you love Hidden Huntress too, Pili! That will be my May Pili-pushed novel :D
Nice haul! I hope you enjoy them all. I can't wait to read Nowhere But Here. I love everything Katie writes! I was fortunate enough to have dinner with her a few weeks ago. She's really great! Have a great week, Alyssa! My STS
ReplyDeleteI hope you get the chance to read it sometime, Brooke!
DeleteOOoh very nice! These are mostly new to me ones! Seeing a lot of Hidden Huntress this week though! Happy Reading!!
ReplyDeleteMy STS will be up tomorrow, be sure to stop by then if you can!
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
You should consider reading Stolen Songbird/Hidden Huntress, Jessica! :D And thanks!
DeleteHey, lady! I hope you're not feeling so sore today! (But you have my permission to continue eating ice cream as much as you'd like :P)
ReplyDeleteLovely new stack of books! I got Hidden Huntress and Nowhere But Here as well - I'm super excited for both! I'll be on the lookout for what you think of First There Was Forever - that's cool that they sent you a finished copy!
I will be ALL THE ICE CREAM TONIGHT ^_^ I hate taking these pain meds so whenever I do, I'm like, ICE CREAM TIME :D
DeleteAnd thanks! I hope you love NBH and HH! I think I will be reading FTWF in a few weeks. It was on my TBR list (though I didn't request it), so, why not!
Great haul. I'm glad to hear that the surgery went well and that you are recovering. I can't resist those kinds of sales on Amazon. You got a great assortment of books this week. I hope that you love all of your new reads.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
Thank you so much, Grace! I hope so too!
Deletehope you enjoy your new books :) happy reads and have a nice weekend
ReplyDeleteThank you, Alreem!
DeleteGreat haul, Alyssa! I received a few of these this week also. I'm SOOOO excited for HIDDEN HUNTRESS. I LOVED STOLEN SONGBIRD so much, it was my favorite book last year. I'm rereading STOLEN SONGBIRD now to jump into HIDDEN HUNTRESS hopefully next!
ReplyDeleteI'm SO glad your surgery went well and that your life's starting to get back to normal! :)
Here's my STS:

Thank you, Alicia!
DeleteI hope you start feeling better! I hope you can eat food soon, especially chocolate! I love the cover for Hidden Huntress! Old follower!
ReplyDeleteLizzie @ lizziethesarcasticblonde.blogspot.com
Thanks, Lizzie! I appreciate it!
DeleteAck! Surgery! I'm so glad it went well, though, and that you are getting better. <3 Hope you'll be able to eat all the chocolate soon, hah :D And yay for getting such gorgeous books. <3 I also got Hidden Huntress :) Must read Stolen Songbird soonish ;p I'm excited. And nervous. Hmph. Anyway. I hope you will end up loving all these gorgeous books sweetie :D Happy reading. <3
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carina! I hope you love SS and HH! The romance is amazing, as is the story. Thank you!
DeleteOh, OUCH! I am happy you can put that experience behind you and get healed up. Thank goodness for nice cold ice cream. Not the greatest way to spend spring break, so I am sending you lots of hugs. You hauled in a big pile of books. The bare chested guy books you young ones love make me chuckle. When I was in my 20s I read a series of books about naughty airline stewardesses. That is how long ago it was that that were still called a stewardess. Lol.
ReplyDeleteLOLOLOLOLOLOL don't judge me, Linda! ;D And I will definitely be getting that ice cream tonight! *stares longingly at chocolate*
DeleteHave a great week, Linda!
Great haul. I'm envious of your copy of Nowhere But Here. Like you say, hope it's good.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my StS and have a good week.
Marilyn @ Marilyn's Mystery Blog
Check it out on Edelweiss! And personally, I'm wary of McGarry's books - they all start to sound the same, you know?
DeleteNice haul! I hope you enjoy your books!
ReplyDeleteCome and check out OUaT's STS and our 16 Blogoverary Giveaways!
Surgery?! I missed knowing this! I'm glad to see everything went well though! I hope it was a minor one? It sounds like maybe you had your tonsils out? Well, no matter the case- ice cream is a must! ;)
ReplyDeleteYay for us getting Hidden Huntress and Nowhere But Here! I hope we both enjoy them! Look at all those historical romances from Avon! I may have to go peruse your list... :D Have a great week hun and a speedy recovery!
Four wisdom teeth, actually. And I have been eating ice cream every night! It's actually the only thing I've managed to it, besides soup. I think I've lost weight - weight I can't afford to lose O_O
DeleteAnd you should definitely check out some of JAL's historical romance novels! I recommend her upcoming release, It Started With a Scandal :)
Thank you so much! <3
So glad to hear that you are recovering well. Hope you start feeling better!
ReplyDeleteI am ridiculously excited for Nowhere But Here, it just sounds so good, plus I love her other books. Happy reading!
Thank you!
DeleteI see you got it as well - I hope you love it! I'm a little more cautious because I haven't loved all of her books in the past, but I've liked a few of them!
I LOVED Nowhere But Here!! I was so happy when I got an arc at ALA Midwinter. I hope you like it too :D

~Karina @ Watcha Reading
Yay! Thanks! I have very low expectations, so, we'll see.
DeleteI'm glad that your surgery went well:) Got some really cool books:)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much!
DeleteI'm sorry you are still in pain :-( Glad the surgery went well! I'm so curious about Hidden Huntress. I'm trying to avoid e-arcs but I maybe should have requested that one. Very curious to hear what you think.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kristen! Day by day. You should request it!
DeleteI was invited to review Harrison, but I passed since it's horror and the cover was too weird for me. Now I'm curious about it (but not enough to read it!) Nowhere But Here!!! I can't wait for this one. Enjoy them all!
ReplyDeleteI didn't accept the invite either! They just sent it to me -_- I hope you love Nowhere But Here if/when you read it, Liza!
Deleteharrison hunted looks like it will be a good one. Enjoy and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteYou picked up several on my TBR! Glad you're recovering well!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteI have got to pick up a copy of Harrison Squared. I have seen it on several blogs and the synopsis sounds unique. Great haul. Feel free to check out mine at http://bookertsfarm.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteI hope you love it, Barb!
DeleteI hope you're feeling better and can get back to solid food soon! (I was stuck on Rita's misto shakes for FOREVER after I had my wisdom teeth out because the one was so deep.)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kel! And OMG right now it's kind of bad, but I'm hoping it stops hurting soon... ugh!
DeleteHope you get to feeling better soon. So glad I haven't had to deal with that wisdom tooth problem. I only had my upper two, and one wasn't ever going to be a problem, so I didn't have to worry about it. I haven't heard of a few of your books, but I'll be going to Goodreads to check them out soon! Great haul!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Sunday Post
I'm glad for you, too!
DeleteThank you, Lisa!
