Stacking the Shelves (#115)


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 1st to Saturday, March 7th?


(all links to Goodreads are provided!)


In the mail:

To be revealed next week! I'm not going home this weekend.


From NetGalley:


Angelfall by Susan Ee

Because Pili told me to.


World After by Susan Ee

Ditto the above!


Slow week in books, fast week in school! We had two snow days (FINALLY. Johns Hopkins is so stingy with the snow days!), but I still have three exams in the coming week... and then spring break! One more week, one more week, one more week...

      Me too! I'm just wary of angel-themed books because I haven't had much luck with them in the past. Thank you, Michelle!

    Pili gives great book recs! I am thinking I have the first book buried in my Kindle. I will have to look for it, or maybe I have just seen it around so much I only think I have it. Lol. Two thumbs up for spring break. My son's doesn't start until April. Have a wonderful weekend. :D

      This gives me hope! I'd been putting off reading the series because of the angel content (I generally don't like angel books), but I'll give them a shot!

      Thank you, Britt!

      YES! I hope so! It was a good reason to snatch them off NetGalley, right? :D

    I've read the first book, ANGELFALL and thought it was alright. I guess I'm the black sheep of the bunch, since EVERYONE I've talked to loved this series but me. ;/ It was okay, but not WOW for me!! But I really hope you love them as much as everyone else!! ENJOY!! :)

      To be honest, I'd probably still be all like naaahhh, except that Pili keeps pushing me to read this series, and it's on NetGalley, so I might as well, you know?

      Thank you, Brooke!

    OMG I love Angelfall and World After! I had no clue you hadn't read them yet. They're so so good. I think you'll like them. The MC is pretty kickass and hilarious and Raffe... SWOON. Can't wait to see what you think!

    Yay! You're almost to spring break! I wish my office took a week off for that. ;) Though I will be dogsitting for someone, so I'll be running around to two jobs instead of one! :D Wait, wha? That's not a break...
