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, November 27th to Saturday, December 3rd?
(all links to Goodreads are provided!)
In the mail:
I'm staying at the university this weekend, so I'll post everything next week! It always happens in which I get the most mail... when I'm not home. o_o
From NetGalley:
Long Way Home by Katie McGarry (sampler)
Flicker and Mist sounds cool. I got Highland Vixen a little while back but forgot to post it. Highland Spitfire (its predecessor) was SO good. Long Way Home is a sampler (an annoying fact that I didn't realize until after I downloaded the book. Oh well!). Thank you, Clarion, Sourcebooks Casablanca, and Harlequin Teen!
Friends, I'm in the final squeeze before Christmas break. I have one more week of classes and then two weeks of finals. So, please bear with me! I'm going to be around sporadically at best. I hope everyone has a lovely week!
Flicker and Mist sounds so amazing :) Hope your week goes well and isn't too stressful. Good luck for your classes and finals! <3
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend :)
It was just okay! Some things were good, some things were bad.
DeleteThank you! =)
I have a paper due Monday, and a Powerpoint Presentation due Wednesday, then finals and I am done with the semester so I hear you. Hope you enjoy your books and good luck on the finals coming up! :)
ReplyDeleteWoooo, that is not bad at all! Hopefully your semester went well overall. Thank you!
DeleteOoh nice! Totally new to me ones but I hope you enjoy each and every one of them!
ReplyDeleteMy STS will be up tomorrow, so stop by then if you can!
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
Thank you, Jessica!
DeleteI hope you enjoy your books. Have a great week!.
ReplyDeleteDiane @ Diane's Book Blog
And vice versa, Diane!
DeleteI don't get the samplers. I rather have the full book. I hope you love all of your new books.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
Same here! I wish I had known. UGH.
DeleteThank you, Grace!
Same thing happened to me with LONG WAY HOME! I thought it was the full book so when I noticed it was a sampler, I got so sad haha And I had downloaded it already :/
ReplyDeleteGenesis @ Latte Nights Reviews
Isn't it annoying!? I haven't downloaded the sampler, but since I was approved, it's on my dashboard... *sigh* I guess I'll crack it open. I know I shouldn't complain but I was expecting the full book! Gah!
DeleteWishing you the best with your Finals, but something tells me you'll ace them all! Hugs...
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ro! Gosh I really hope so! <3
DeleteYou had SUCH a great haul this week! I'm really looking forward to Flicker and Mist, myself--here's hoping that you're enjoying the read so far, and that I enjoy it too when I get the chance to pick it up!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Stacking the Shelves post this week, if you're interested in checking it out. No pressure or worries if you're not, though! Either way, happy book-ing; I hope you enjoy all your recent acquisitions! Have a great rest of your weekend! <3
Thank you! I just finished it - it was okay, but super great but not bad either. I hope you like it more than I did. ^_^
DeleteBest of luck on finals! I'm right there with you.
ReplyDeleteThank you and same to you! Hopefully you finish the semester very strongly!
DeleteGood luck on your finals! I remember those days! So much stress. lol! Hope you are having a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Julie! Too much stress, honestly. Also, HIII! I feel like I haven't "seen" you in a while. I hope you are doing well!
DeleteWishing you lots of energy and brilliance for your finals push. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, nice book haul, too. I love Mary Wine's historicals, too.
I need a lot of both. ;) Thank you, Sophia!
DeleteI love review copies. Free and fun to read. Best of both worlds! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Andrea!
DeleteHighland Vixen looks so good! And I was so bummed when Long Way Home was a sampler, I cannot wait for that one. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteYou must read Highland Spitfire, Teresa! Dude, I think I literally screeched when I realized it was a sampler only. I hate samplers!
DeleteUGH! I requested the LWH too, and ughhhhh I didn't realize it was a sampler. I don't understand why publishers even put up samplers on NG! How is anyone supposed to review a sample?! It's like telling a restaurant to critic the raw vegetables used in meal -_-
ReplyDeleteAnyways! I hope we both love Highland Vixen! It sounds amazing of course and the couple gave me so many shippy feels in the first books, so I can't wait!
Have a wonderful week, Alyssa!
*to review ... It's too early for me.
DeleteDude seriously! I'm thinking about doing a Sampler review post with this sampler and the Windwitch one (I'm reading Windwitch soon anyway, might as well review the sampler they put on NetGalley too). It's annoying though.
DeleteI hope you have a lovely week as well! Go take a nap, lady. :D
LOL THE PAIN OF GETTING A SAMPLER. I really don't like those, especially on Netgalley. Like, do I just write some one paragraph "review" as feedback? I guess you just leave a star rating or something and be done with it. Anyhow, enjoy the books and best of luck at university!
ReplyDelete- Aila @ One Way Or An Author
I hate them! I hate them even more when I don't realize that it's a sampler that is uploaded on to NetGalley (or Edelweiss)... I can't believe I didn't realize that. Ugh. I have no idea how to review it, but I might combine a few samplers or something.
DeleteThank you, Aila!
Good luck with your exams. Have a nice week.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Carine! <3
DeleteAwesome haul! I'm also going through papers/exams. Good luck on finals,
ReplyDeleteI hope the papers go well, Rachel! =)
Deletekind of want to read Highland Vixen myself, humm will have to see if I can fit it in
ReplyDeleteYou totally should, Lily! Or try the first book, Highland Spitfire. :D
DeleteFlicker and Mist looks good, though I don´t know the author. But that can change :-) Happy reading and have a great new week.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes
Vi @ Gone With The Books
I think she has a few other books published. I actually just read the book, didn't love it, but it was worth reading.
DeleteThank you, Vi!
Enjoy your books and good luck on your finals! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Yvonne! ^_^
DeleteEnjoy your new books, and good luck on your finals! I'm sure you'll do fantastic. :)
ReplyDeleteLindsey
I hope so too, thank you! <3
DeleteGood luck with your finals! I like the cover of Highland Vixen. Hope you enjoy your books in your downtime!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great? Thank you, Darlene!
DeleteFlicker and Mist looks so good! This is the first I've heard of it! Enjoy all your new reads :D
ReplyDeleteHere's my Weekly Recap!
I got really excited when I saw Long Way Home was a read now on NetGalley but then I noticed it was a sampler. :( I am not much of a fan of samplers. Highland Vixen looks like my kind of read. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteRIGHT?! I was so disappointed. Samplers are terrible. :/
DeleteThanks, and you too, Carole!
Good luck with your finals I hope they go well! Long Way Home looks good!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I need all the luck I can get. :D
DeleteBest of luck on your finals Alyssa!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Liza! I want them to finish as soon as possible... and I haven't even started!
DeleteYou go home every week? That sounds very nice. I hate samplers, especially when they don't make it clear that it's a sample...
ReplyDeleteNereyda│ Nick & Nereyda’s Infinite Booklist
It's like, three out of the four weekends of a month. I go home on Saturday night and come back Sunday evening. It's not even 24 hours. It's so difficult to come home (i.e. not spend the time doing school work), and it's a huge time commitment, but I love going home.
DeleteYeah, I'm not sure what to do with this sampler!
Yay for getting pretty ebooks :) I hope you enjoy them all sweet girl. <3 Not books for me, but looking pretty :D Hope you are doing great. <3
ReplyDeleteThank you, Carina! I appreciate that. ^_^
