Stacking the Shelves (#197)


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, September 25th to Saturday, October 1st?


(all links to Goodreads are provided!)


In the mail:

FROM THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 18TH TO SEPTEMBER 24TH:



Thank you so much for the wonderful package, BHM! I will be reading this one very soon. =)



Unsolicited - I'd not heard of this one before! Thank you, Random House.



Another unfamiliar one. But thank you, Tor!


A hardcover copy of These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner

Thank you for the trade, Maryssa! Happy to help someone's collection. =) I love this series!


Press Back swag

Thank you, Kristen! I loved Metaltown. =)


Swaaaaaaag

Ahh! Thank you, Jaime! She is the loveliest! This photo doesn't do the sheer amount of swag justice. All amazing things! I am over the moon. :D


FROM THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 25TH TO OCTOBER 1st:



I have not read anything by this author, but I think I will now! I love the swag with this package. The lipstick is actually a flashlight, the nail polish is a highlighter, and the mascara is a flash drive. SO cool! Thank you, BHM. =)



HURRAY! It came! Best preorder swag ever. Just waiting on the preorder itself!



I loved this book, and I love its swag. Thank you, Carina, for offering these to me!



Unsolicited - thank you, Tor!



Also unsolicited - thank you, Random House!

YAY for new Harper books! I only downloaded five, but there are two that I might go back and download closer to publication date (Spindle Fire is one of them). Thank you, Harper!


Yikes! A large haul, and I've updated the post with this week's mail in addition to last week's - phew! I've got some reading to do. This week was incredibly stressful, but I managed to pull out SIX reviews, four of which were for blog tours. Check them out below!

  2. I keep seeing Diabolic but I don't know if I would like it. I'll just wait for your review :) I neglected the blog this week and everything blog related so that meant not checking Edelweiss and now I'm kicking myself for it. I just requested Hunted and By Your Side!!
    HOW COME I DID NOT KNOW THE WISH GRANTER WAS PART OF THE RAVENSPIRE SERIES!!!!! OHMYGOSH!!!! I just requested it *FINGERS CROSSED*
    I hope you're having a good weekend!

    3. Aren't they creative?! I love them! At first I was like uhhhh... this is weird... but then I started poking them and realized that they were all useless things and not cosmetics. :D Definitely follow on Twitter for those daily challenges! Prizes are awarded daily. ^_^

    1. Ooo, I'm curious to see what you'll think of it! Since it was sent unsolicited, I doubt I'll read it, but that's okay. Thank you, Sherry!

    1. Ha! That's a great question. ;) I might give Beast a chance, if I get time! Unfortunately I can't give unsolicited novels as much as time as I'd wish, but a select few will make it to my TBR. :D
