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, February 2nd to Saturday, February 8th?
(all links to Goodreads are provided!)
In the mail:
I actually got that last week, but forgot to feature it. I'm reviewing it in a few days!
No, you didn't miss a giveaway or contest or something. THANK YOU, APRIL!! <3
My third and final request from Macmillan! So I got all three of the books I requested ^_^
AHHHH! RACHEL, I GOT AN ARC! Yes, I got it from NetGalley last week. But I had no idea if my request for a print ARC would be approved (i.e., that I'd be sent an ARC). So yay!
Thank you, Jaime! I already read and reviewed this one, but a finished copy is nice - now I have first edition hardcover copies of the entire series! :D
From Edelweiss:
I've read book one, but I have not read book two. That did not stop me from downloading this book :D
I really enjoyed In the After, so I'm going to keep reading the series!
Okay, this is my SECOND Kasie West book, and I have not read either book yet (this one and Pivot Point). I'll get there, I promise...
I'd actually never heard of this one, but a YADC blogger got an ARC, and it sounds interesting, so I went on Edelweiss and downloaded it!
From NetGalley:
I LOVED the first book, so of course I would want to read the companion novel!
Whew! What a haul. It's been a few weeks since I've had more than just a few books, right? And then BAM! A smack in the face, via BOOKS! Fun times. Lots of sequels. How is everyone doing?
Nice. A lot of great books I see on your que this week. It looks like you had a stellar week of books. I hope you enjoy your new books.

It was a pretty stellar week! Thank you, Grace.
DeleteSome nice additions there. On The Fence looks like a fun read. Hope you enjoy them all.
ReplyDeleteMy StS @ Marilyn's Mystery Blog
I think it does too! Thank you, Marilyn.
DeleteI devoured On the Fence. I'm gonna read it again! Enjoy your books!
ReplyDeleteOMG I know, I saw! That makes me excited :D
DeleteBeyond Spark and Burn...lucky you. I haven't read Casey West either, but I look forward to it. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteI'm ecstatic! And I suppose this will be a first for both of us! Thank you, Sophia.
DeleteAah, I really need to start the books/series by Kasie West, April Genevieve Tucholke, and Susan Dennard! All of their books have been on my TBR list for way too long :/ Nice haul though!
ReplyDeleteMy StS .
Zareena @ Books and Books
All three are fabulous authors! You would not be wasting your time. Thank you!
DeleteOooooh, what a fantastic haul!!
ReplyDeleteBIG YAY for you getting a signed ARC of Between The Spark & The Burn!
And I'm quite envious of you being able to go and download In the End and Strange And Ever After! I requested both so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
I was also approved for Where Silence Gathers, and I can't wait till I can read it!
Happy reading, Alyssa! Have a great weekend!
I'm still internally freaking out! And I love/hate being auto-approved on Edelweiss - hate, because I download so much O_O Good luck! And happy reading to you, Pili!
DeleteOoh nice! These are all new to me reads! Hope you enjoy them all! Cool that the author sent you an ARC! Gotta love authors when they do that! Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteMy STS will be up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by then!
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
Thank you, Jessica! I'm pretty thrilled about it as well.
DeleteGreat haul! I got Where the Silence Gathers too. I loved the first book so can't wait to have time to get into this one. I have a lot of books to catch up on. Need more time! Enjoy all the books :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's great! I hope it is amazing. And I definitely want/need more time as well!
DeleteSo jealous of your signed ARC! That's awesome! I want that one so badly! Great haul! Enjoy! My STS: http://www.thecovercontessa.com/2014/02/staking-shelves-6.html?showComment=1391870775193#c4706514969155292370
ReplyDeleteI hope you get an ARC! I still couldn't believe it, when I opened the package. Thank you!
Deleteno you have to read kasie's books soon because she is so good at writing cute books that make you squeal with happiness it's ridiculous. great haul, Alyssa, happy reading! <33
ReplyDeleteSo I hear! I guess I just needed a push. I'm glad you love her books! Thank you, Eileen!
DeleteGreat books this week. The Strange and Ever After cover is beyond beautiful! I haven't heard of the others but I honestly hope you enjoy them all! Great haul and happy reading!

Sharrice @Reese's Reviews
It does have a beautiful cover! Thank you, Sharrice.
DeleteAh, pretty books. <3 SIGNED ARC! Loooove. So jealous. Hope you will love everything sweetie :) I also got Strange and Ever After, and I have yet to read book one (A) but I will read them all before it publishes.
ReplyDeleteI know! I'm honored. I hope it is amazing! And OMG Carina, you must read the series soon! I love Susan (and her books) ^_^
DeleteGreat haul!!! The covers in the Something Strange and Deadly just keep getting better and better!! They're all just so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI really want to read Between the Devil and The Deep Blue Sea soon, I've heard only great things about it.

I totally agree with - Harper has done something amazing with Dennard's book covers. And I hope you read Tucholke's books! She is so talented, and her books are AMAZING.
DeleteWe legitimately got ALL THE SAME BOOKS from Edelweiss except I didn't get In The End because I haven't read In The After yet. Sigh. I should go grab it just in case. LOL.
ReplyDeleteYAY FOR SIGNED BOOKS.
I am doing well, it's the weekend and next week I get a three day weekend which is kind of awesome.
That's so cool! It wouldn't hurt, I suppose, but no big if you don't get it. And right?! I can't wait to read Between the Spark and Burn.
DeleteI'm glad to hear that, April! YAY FOR THREE-DAY WEEKENDS! :D
I am DYING to read On the Fence! Hope you can stop by mine.
ReplyDeleteI hope you read it!
DeleteI got On The Fence as well and it looks amazing! Now I can find out what all the Kasie West hype is about. And WOW that ARC of Between the Spark looks amazing! You lucky thing!
ReplyDeleteHere's my STS this week.
I hope it is amazing! And right?! I can't wait to read it. April Tucholke is fabulous!
DeleteHow exciting that you got Between the Spark and the Burn! And Strange and Ever After...awesome haul Alyssa, and thanks for visiting:-)
ReplyDeleteI know! I'm so excited! And I can't wait to see how Dennard wrraps it all up. Thank you!
DeleteYAY! On the Fence, Strange and Ever After, and Where Silence Gathers all made my STS this week too! Can't wait to see what you think of them! I'm also interested in your Ring and Crown and Nil reviews! Great haul girl! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteExcellent! We should read together sometime. And I just read NIL - it was pretty epic!
DeleteWOW I don't know where to begin. lol I've never heard of some of the book you got so I'm going to look those up. I've heard of Into the Still Blue and Strange and Ever After, but I've yet to read them. On the Fence and The Kiss of deception sound really good and it doesn't hurt that I like the covers. :D I hope you enjoy all your books and thanks for stopping by my STS!
ReplyDeleteI know, there are so many books here lol. I hope you read Dennard and Rossi's series sometime! Both are amazing (at least, I can say for certain that Rossi's series it). I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to read The Kiss of Deception!
DeleteThank you!
Holy Books, Great haul! I hope you enjoy all of your lovely books!
ReplyDeleteCheck out our STS.
Leydy @ OUaT & Redcarpetendings
NIL! Aghhhh I need to read that book. It sounds so amazing. This is a brilliant haul :) I hope you enjoy them all.
ReplyDeleteMy Showcase Sunday :)
It's probably one of my best yet! In my opinion ^_^
DeleteI am excited for On The Fence and hope we both love it.
ReplyDeleteCool!
DeleteI have the few of these - On the Fence, Kiss of Deception, and Melissa's new book. The Queen of the Tearling looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by :)
That's good! I'm sure you'll love them. I hope we both do!
DeleteThese all look like great reads!! Happy Reading! If you'd like, you can stop by my STS
ReplyDeleteI agree! Thanks!
DeleteI know what you mean! Some weeks there are few books, and then suddenly, approvals come from all over the place, plus some pre-orders are delivered and the TBR shelf continues to swell.
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll enjoy all your new books! They all look awesome :)
Thanks for stopping by earlier.
Lexxie @ (un)Conventional Bookviews
EXACTLY! Like, I feel a tiny bit overwhelmed. Except not, because I have a blog schedule going strong. Hopefully, I can fit all of these in the schedule.
DeleteThank you so much, Lexxie!
I've only read West's The Distance Between Us, but I really liked it. On The Fence sounds super cute! I need to read Pivot Point soon too, now that Split Second is almost out haha.
ReplyDeleteSeems like sometimes all the books come at once haha. Oh well, you definitely got some awesome books! Hope you enjoy (:
Here's my Sunday Post & STS
I'm glad you liked it! I have not read her contemporary or paranormal novels yet. And yeah, all the books all at once! Fun times.
DeleteThank you, Cyn!
Great haul! I really want to read Nil, it looks so good. I hope you enjoy all of your books :) My STS.
ReplyDeleteI hope you do read it! Thank you.
DeleteNice haul this week. I've seen On the Fence floating around a lot this past week. I will have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteKristin @ Book Sniffers Anonymous
I hope you do!
DeleteBOOK SMACK! :)
ReplyDeleteSecond mention in a rowwwwww, feelin' special. :) It's so pretty and I'm so jealous and I'm SO hoping that a copy is coming to me in SOME WAY. And yay for The Kiss of Deception! That looks so AMAZINGGGG. Ah! I haven't read the second book by Susan Dennard either! I've been resisting getting Strange and Ever After as motivation to get to it. I don't have my copy of Into the Still Blue yet--I'm waiting to buy it from the bookstore that I'm attending the Dark Days tour at. :) DUDE, IF YOU WANT ME TO GET SOMETHING SIGNED YOU SHOULD SEND IT TO MEEE. I'm already going to have an absurd number of books. :D
HAVE A GREAT WEEK ALYSSA!
HAHAHA!
DeleteYou ARE specialz! *squishes* And I hope you get a copy as well! Same with The Kiss of Deception. And OMG WAIT SO I'M GOING TO SEND YOU THIS GIANT BOX OF BOOKS, MKAY?!
This isn't going to work O_O
Whatever. We'll figure it out. You have a great week as well, Rachel!
Wow! Lots of cool looking titles this week! I'm so excited for On the Fence and what an awesome copy of Between the Spark. Great haul!
ReplyDeleteI agree! This is probably one of my best (if not THE best) hauls. Thank you!
