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, August 28th to Saturday, September 3rd?

In the mail:

My final package as an active Avon Addict! Thank you, Avon! Can you guess which one was my pick? ;)
Thank you so much, Macmillan! I can't wait to read these. :D
From NetGalley:
YAAAASSS! Thank you, Sourcebooks! I adored A Promise of Fire. :D
Thank you, Entangled! This is an older title but I've not read it yet, so I jumped at the chance! I love Robert's books. =)
My first two days of class were this week (Thursday and Friday) - holy guacamole! I can't believe summer is over. It's going to be a busy and tough semester. I am not prepared for this to be my last year in college!
Wow, a back to school good bonanza. Now you just have to find time to read all of them. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI know right?! Especially since I've only read a few of those 25. Most are new to me!
DeleteOooh very nice haul indeed!!! I soooo want to read Amanda Bouchet's books. I felt like I should have more to my wishlist for my OTSPSecretSister so I put that one on it. Hoping it comes sometime in the months to come! Lol! Heard amazing things too!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy all your awesome new reads!
My STS post will be up tomorrow, so stop by then if you can!
Have a GREAT day!

ReplyDeleteIt was a lot! I might not touch the Avon ones in a while. Hopefully you can complete your collection!
