Stacking the Shelves (#184)


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, June 26th to Saturday, July 2nd?


(all links to Goodreads are provided!)


In the mail:



Thank you, Random House! This actually should have gone in last week's STS post. 



Thank you, Avon!



Oh! Neat! I have to read this one soon. Thank you, GCP!



Awww, this is such a great package, and a lovely surprise! Thank you, Tor.



Thank you, Random House! I was supposed to get an ARC of this book a few weeks ago, but when it never showed, I requested the book on NetGalley. And then the ARC finally arrives. Whoops!



I love this book! From a trade - thank you!



Thank you SO much, Novl/Little Brown! I thought I missed the cutoff for the package - I'm glad that wasn't the case! I loved Court of Fives last year. *heart eyes*



Thank you, Harper! I'd not heard of this one before (it's unsolicited!).


From NetGalley:

  


I've Meader's Tall, Dark, and Texan series! And the Andrews book was one I requested on a whim. I like sports romances. :D



It looks like a lot, but four of these are unsolicited books. Another is a 2017 novel. I've read two (Court of Fives, Starflight). So it's not too bad! And I'm good for it. *surrounds self with books* 

Peeps, I've had a not-so-good week, on the personal side. Pray for my family, please!

    1. You *must* try Starflight! I read it in 2015, and it definitely made my top ten of 2015. SO good. :)

      Thank you, Cyra!

    1. It looks great! I'm not really familiar with Ghostbusters but I've heard about it. I loved Alienated/Invaded, but Starflight takes the cake (for me).

      Thank you!

  21. So many amazing books here! I can’t wait to read A SHADOW BRIGHT AND BURNING, and STARFLIGHT. I loved Melissa Landers’s first book ALIENATED, but I don’t know why I didn’t continue on with the series. And she’s coming to the Boston Teen Author Festival this year, so I’m really excited to meet her! Oooooh, I’m also super jealous of that Ghostbusters swag and book. Can’t wait to see the movie. Happy reading! :D

    1. Awww, I'm sorry to hear that you stopped with the series! Invaded is quite good, though I liked Alienated more (and Starflight the most, in general). *I'm* jealous that you get to meet her!

      Thank you, Rabiah!
