Stacking the shelves (5)


Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme hosted at Tynga's Reviews, and is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!

These are the last galleys I am requesting this month. I am completely BANNED. Until I have read at least 3 galleys.

FOR REVIEW:



Mila 2.0: Renegade | Debra Driza

In The After: In The End | Demitria Lunetta
Two sequels to two books I haven't read. WHAT AM I THINKING? I'm thinking I'm long overdue for reading their first books and I'm going to love them both.

Merci to HarperCollins & Edelweiss for these.



Riot | Sarah Mussi
This just sounds awesome, and it was on read now on NG and it's BRITISH!!

Stolen Songbird | Danielle. L. Jensen
It's a Strange Chemistry title. Need I say more?

Thanks to Hatchette Children's Books, Strange Chemistry/ATOM, & Netgalley.

It's sequel week! *screams from fright*

BOUGHT:


Altered & Erased | Jennifer Rush
I never bought the physical copy of Altered, so I took the opportunity to buy it while I was pre-ordering Erased (which came a day early!) Excited and nervous to start Erased.


Ignite Me & Unite Me | Tahereh Mafi
I don't really need to explain these two, do I?

FOR REVIEW:


The Eye of Minds | James Dashner
The Fearless | Emma Pass
Take Back The Skies | Lucy Saxon
These all sound awesome - Take Back The Skies especially. Can't wait to read them.

Accidentally requested a galley. Or two. Oops.

FOR REVIEW:



The Vanishing Season | Jodi Lynn Anderson
I've already read this, since I needed a quick, easy read, and it is reeeally good.

Elusion | Claudia Gabel & Cheryl Klam
I wasn't going to request this, but then I did. My hand slipped, I swear.

Much fewer books than last week, when I had an influx of Christmas presents, but still a pretty decent amount. I need to slow down with getting books, so hopefully next week there won't be a STS.

GIFTED:



The Hobbit | J. R. R. Tolkein
My mum bought me this because she is kind and awesome.



Daughter of Smoke & Bone: Daughter of Smoke & Bone | Laini Taylor
Opal Cowan: Spy Glass | Maria. V. Snyder



Blood of Eden: The Immortal Rules | Julie Kagawa
Wicked Lovely: Radiant Shadows | Melissa Marr

FOR REVIEW:



Reboot: Rebel | Amy Tintera
I'm SO excited to have this, but SO not happy for it to be over. I didn't realise this was a duology, so I thought there'd be an extra book and now I'm quite sad. Still, glad to read more of Wren's and Callum's story.

Bought:



Numbers: Numbers | Rachel Ward
Blue Bloods: Keys To The Repository | Melissa De La Cruz

So I bought these two today from the pound shop, and they were 50p each. Which is crazy. Numbers is on my GR to-read list, and I've been meaning to read Blue Bloods for a while. Even if I don't like the Blue Bloods series, it was only 50p so no great loss if I hate it.

You should see the inside pages of Numbers, though. There are literally numbers everywhere. It's a beautiful book! I'm so happy I bought it.

I'm late with STS this week. I've had a LOT of stuff to do with The Forgotten, and haven't had time to read much let alone make blog posts. But I've stolen a bit of time now to make this post. The good news is that TF is in final revisions stage and will be available for reviewers in the next fortnight!

Bought:



Marked | P.C. and Kristin Cast
Vampire Diaries: The Awakening & The Struggle | L. J. Smith

I'm on a vampire kick. This is partly The Vampire Diaries's fault. I tried to resist the show, I really did, but it's just so addictive. So I had to buy the books. And this group on Goodreads (a.k.a. the only group I am a member of because all the others I have joined in the past weren't for me) is having a vampire theme this month and although I'm not taking part because I don't have much reading time this month, I thought I'd still read a few vampire books to ~kind of~ take part.

They're both really pretty in hardcopy and I'm excited to read these! Marked is especially nice because it has pink on the edge of the pages.

I went on a bit of an eBook spree this week.



I'm not gonna write out the details for all of these, but I'll link to their Goodreads;
Top: 1 2 3 4
Middle: 1 2 3 4
Bottom: 1 2 3 4

Some of these look really good, some look alright, some I only downloaded because they were free. If you're interested in any of these, they are all currently free in the iBooks store.

I haven't done much book obtaining this week, so I'm going to post all my books of the month.


Bought:




Dark Inside by Jeyn Roberts, a book that was on my to-read list that I found in a pound shop. For a pound. Crazy money.
Requiem by Lauren Oliver, because I seriously need to read Pandemonium and I didn't dare read it until I had Requiem as well. No that's a lie. I bought it for the Alex short story that came with the hardcover. I love Alex.
Legend by Marie Lu, because it's the only book that will get me to buy it twice, and I wanted it to match my Prodigy cover.


For review:


Gameboard of The Gods by Richelle Mead, because yay Richelle Mead. I'll read anything this woman writes. Absolutely anything.


Free eBooks:



Program 12 and Program 13 by Nicole Sobon, because they've been on my to-read list for a while now and I thought it was a good time to start reading the series since Program 13 was free for a limited time.
Submerged by Nicole Sobon, for the exact same reason as the other two. Can't wait to read these.
