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, May 21st to Saturday, May 27th?
(all links to Goodreads are provided!)
In the mail:
Unsolicited shiny hardcovers - thank you, Knopf, S&S, and Tor Teen!
My preordered copies are finally here! I am in love. :D You can check out my review of Flame in the Mist HERE.
A welcome surprise from Scholastic! Thank you so much. I've adored all of West's previous novels!
AYYY! Thank you, Katherine! Now my set is complete! Pictures to follow - I need to do a photo-shoot with all five Cashore ARCs. :D
From NetGalley:
Thank you, Julianna and NetGalley! I'm nervous but excited to read this book. I've read five of her previous books and enjoyed them all, so I'm hoping this one is no different!
Sooooooooo I graduated on Wednesday! As promised, I posted pictures. I may do a full blog post, but for now, enjoy what I posted on Twitter!
Pre-graduation photos! With fellow environmental engineering students, who are as much my family as they are peers/classmates. 😍 #jhu2017 pic.twitter.com/kEkS0vdF1l— Alyssa Susanna (@Alyssa_Susanna) May 26, 2017
Check out my cap! 😏🇹🇹 Never forget where you came from, and how you came to be. 💙 #jhu2017 pic.twitter.com/s1WL8iVI0K— Alyssa Susanna (@Alyssa_Susanna) May 26, 2017

Thank you so much for your support, whether from one day ago, or for all four years, or since I began blogging midway through my senior year of high school. 💗💗
Congratulations, new graduate! And also grats on all the new books, I am drooling at that gorgeous ARC of Jane, Unlimited!

ReplyDeleteOh, you look fantastic in that gown and carrying the evidence of your hard work in the diploma. :)
Thank you so much, Sophia! I need to take pictures with my actual diploma... it's in a big envelope and I don't want anything to get on the diploma itself! D:

DeleteCongratulations on your accomplishment!!! I loved looking at all your pictures. I am also wiping drool from my mouth over some of your books -- Lucky in Love and Lara Jean. I hope to read both. I read Saints and Misfits and really enjoyed it. I hope you enjoy all your new books, and also hope you enjoy success after success as you embark on post-college life.
ReplyDeleteSam @ WLABB
Thank you! I'm hoping to start Lucky in Love soon. A&FLJ has fallen to the wayside for a bit, but I may take it with me on vacation. ;) Thank you so much, Sam!
DeleteCongrats! Enjoy the summer with your latest books ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Velvet! Next STS will feature something familiar! ;D
DeleteCongratulations. I love your pictures. Hopefully you will have a little down time before you move into the next chapter of your life :)
ReplyDeleteRefuge for Masterminds cover is beautiful, a good historical romance... I added it to my list. Wonderful haul this week.
Thank you, Jovita! I start work on June 19th, so it's a tiny bit of a break. ^_^
DeleteIt's the third book in a series - a series that I want to start! I need to acquire book one though. O_O Thank you!
Congratulations on your graduation! Enjoy every minute of your achievement. You deserve it!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I appreciate that! <333

DeleteCongrats congrats congrats on your graduation! I'm so proud of you! <3 Also, I NEED A PICTURE OF YOUR CASHORE ARC COLLECTION - she's my fave author.
ReplyDeleteMegan @ http://wanderingsofabookbird.blogspot.co.uk/
Thank you so much! Pictures are forthcoming! I've taken a few but I hate the lighting due to the gloomy weather we've been having. D: She's my favorite as well!
DeleteYou got a nice haul there, Alyssa. Pics of Johns Hopkins are beautiful and make me miss home a little. I'm super proud that you've achieved such a phenomenal goal! HUGE Hugs... and congrats! RO
ReplyDeleteAwwww! *hugs* Thank you so much, Ro! <333

Thank you as well for stopping by my blog earlier today--much appreciated! Happy book-ing to you!
Beth @ Betwixt the Pages
Thank you, Beth! I've got plenty to read now that I am slightly "freer". :D Have a great week!
DeleteThis is beautiful Alyssa, both book haul and graduation photos! <3 How did you even keep up such a spectacular blog throughout undergrad years? I'm so worried, tbh, because I'm starting college in a couple of months and this past month was filled with events where I couldn't have the chance to read as much as I wanted to. :'D But if there's a will, there's a way and I'm hoping to keep up my own blog.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all the pretty ARCs! The Kasie West one seems especially interesting as well. BIGGEST of congratulations to graduating. You deserve an awesome summer, girl!
All the hearts, Aila @ one Way Or An Author
Honestly I'm not sure I recommend my methods because it is involved even less sleep than your usual smart and social undergrad... I can't even say I was dumb and antisocial and pulled off blogging too. O_O Do what you love though! If you budget time at the beginning of every semester for blogging, you can make it work. =) But yeah, notice how much my blog slowed down in April and May, compared to previous months. It was crazy, especially with all of the graduation-related events going on!
DeleteThank you so much! I hope you have a great time in China, Aila!
Wow, congratulations, Alyssa. So happy for you. I hope you're having a great time celebrating this moment. Anyway, enjoy these books. The Juliana Keyes book sounds great. I hope you love it. Have a wonderful week. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Geybie! I definitely am! I'll let you know how My Roommate's Girl is. :D Thank you!
DeleteCongrats, Alyssa!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lauren!
DeleteCongratulations on graduating again Alyssa! I remember like it was just yesterday when you were just starting college (I sound like a super proud mother! lol). And look at all the amazing books you received too! I'm actually starting Flame in the Mist today and I really loved Always and Forever Lara Jean! And ahhhh I can't wait to see how you get on with Lucky in Love! I hope you have a great week! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Jasprit! OMG Jasprit, you were one of the bloggers that "saw me off to college", I remember! Which is awesome, and much appreciated. :D
DeleteSo glad you loved A&FLJ! I hope you adore Flame in the Mist as much as I did. Thank you, Jasprit!
Congratulations on graduating!! That's so amazing!! <3
ReplyDeleteAnd that's also an awesome and beauuuutiful book haul, Alyssa :) Hope you enjoy them all.
Hope you have a wonderful week ahead :)
Thank you so much! And thank you! I have a lot of reading to do - what's new though. ;) Same to you!
DeleteCongratulations on your graduation! That's wonderful! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Yvonne! Same to you!
DeleteOHHHHH Jane Unlimited! Cannot wait to see what you think of it. So excited for that one! And congrats on graduation!
