Stacking the Shelves (#147)


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, October 11th to Saturday, October 17th?


(all links to Goodreads are provided!)


In the mail:


A hardcover copy of Slasher Girls & Monster Boys by April Tucholke

For the Halloween festivities - thank you so much, Penguin!


A signed hardcover copy of Through the Dark by Alexandra Bracken
Bookmark and book card

Thank you, Alex! It was so so so nice of her to send this!


An ARC of Arrows by Melissa Gorzelanczyk!

Thank you, Random House, Wendy, and Melissa!


A hardcover copy of Along the Infinite Sea by Beatriz Williams

Unsolicited - thank you, Penguin!


A paperback copy of A Wicked Way To Win an Earl by Anna Bradley
A paperback copy of Hard Beat by K. Bromberg

Thank you, Berkley! How you spoil me so. :)


A signed paperback copy of Diamonds are Forever by Michelle Madow
Swag!

Thank you soooo much, Michelle! This is wonderful!


From Edelweiss:


All Chained Up by Sophie Jordan

Literally all I looked at was "Sophie Jordan" and "Avon" and I was sold!


Check it out, my book haul was all posted without delay! Another rather sizable week in books, though unlike previous weeks, many aren't review books. I want to take a month off of school and life and just read read read! 

How is everyone doing?

      Mwa! I try! It has indeed been a busy week - but also stressful. I think my reading level correlates positively to the amount of stress that I'm experiencing. :D *hugs* Hope this week will be better for you!

    The Slasher one looks like a nice spooky read for this time of the year. Lots of goodies in the mail this week.

    I got a couple nice review books, myself.

      I hope it's spooky! I don't usually like horror but I feel like I should read at least one, during the month of October... and this is an entire collection of them!

      I hope it's awesome! Kathy MacMillan was pushing it on me at KidLitCon, so I knew I had to give it a shot. Hopefully we both enjoy Slasher Girls and Monster Boys!

      Arrows is fairly new to me as well! Kathy MacMillan introduced me to the book (and author). And you're right, that anthology is filled with talent! Thank you, and same to you, Liza. <3

      It's cute! I hope the story is as well! I feel like many people haven't, Random House isn't doing their promo for this book as well as they should be. -___- Thank you, Lisa!

    Ooh nice haul! I can't wait to read your thoughts on Slasher Girls and Monster Boys. That cover is CREEPY. Arrows sounds appealing yet a bit strange at the same time... Awww I LOVE Bracken's book, and that swag is adorable. Happy hauling! :)

    Wow, FABULOUS haul! I am really excited to read Slasher Girls & Monster Boys- though I put it on my Secret Sister list and am now kicking myself because I want to just buy it ;) Arrows looks SO good! I definitely am looking forward to reading Through the Dark when it comes out, I adore those characters. And I got Along an Infinite Sea or whatever too. I haven't a clue what it is about, but the cover is pretty! Hope you enjoy these, and have a fabulous week!! :)

      I need to get started on reading some of the stories! Hopefully you get a copy soon. Arrows is fairly new to me, but I'm excited about it. I'll probably end up giving away the Williams book.

      Thank you, Shannon!
