Xpresso Weekly: Stacking the Shelves (6)

Xpresso Weekly is my edition of Stacking the Shelves hosted by Tynga's Reviews featuring the books
I got this week, and I also mention blog news/happenings of the past week.

Hi lovelies! How's everyone's week been? Mine has been super busy, especially this Saturday which was spent running around and cleaning to get ready for my kid's 2nd bday party that's today :) And we are finally in JUNE! How exciting is that!! With June comes summer, and with summer comes my Summer Lovin' giveaway! Did you see? You could win an epic summer release or an ARC of Lucid! Other highlights this week includes my Angel Eyes tour stop where you can read my review and win a copy of the book. There was also the launch of the Midsummer Dream Fair - make sure to check that out this month there will be plenty of fun posts and giveaways! On my Facebook page I posted a cover reveal for Let the Sky Fall as well as for Entice. Lastly, if you missed it and just can't get enough of me - I was interviewed at The Teen Book Guru last Sunday! Future-wise, you'll notice on the sidebar there are some new tours that will be dropping by: Temptation, The Color of Snow, and Blind Spot.

Did you miss any reviews this week?

Now for my book haul (click on cover or title links for Goodreads)
I got for review: 


*Thanks to Random House Publishing Group, Harlequin UK, Tribute Books, and Kate Avery Ellison for the review copies*


I bought:
As you can see, I found these for 5$ at Chapters!


Anything exciting in your haul this week?

  1. Nice, Giselle. Saving June was pretty good. I only gave it 3 stars but I know I am in the minority, so you will probably love it.

    I'm SOOOO excited to start Dearly, Beloved!! Eeeeeee! I hope it's as good as the first one. I'm nervous. Have a great week. <3

  2. Those Chapters deals were awesome! I'm so happy you told me about it! Ooh Blind Spot, I can't wait to read that one and see your tour stop, so far away though *sigh* Frost looks really good, Saving June is new to me, I'll have to check that one out on GR. Great haul love!

  6. I've been looking for Jessica's Guide to Dating the Dark Side at Indigo and Coles but could never find it, I found the second book, but not this one and I really want it since I heard so many positive reviews about it, and you found it at Chapters on sale, lucky. I feel like I'm going to need to either order it online or go to one of the people who work at Indigo and ask them if they can order some, cause I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one in my city who wants it.

    Anyways, great books.


    Here's my weekly book haul: Saturday on the Shelves (5)

  27. I really want Dearly Beloved. I requested it on Netgalley last night but I'm not expecting to be approved. Random House keep refusing lately for some reason, but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed, I loved Dearly Departed. I actually have the colour of snow too but I forgot to add it, I'll add it to next weeks :) Awesome haul, enjoy!!

  39. I hope you Love Possession. I think it was awesome!! Ohhhh Dearly, Beloved!! I requested it from NetGalley, but haven't heard if I got it or not yet. I think Dearly, Departed was actually the first book I ever got on NetGalley, so I will be sad if they don't approve me for Dearly, Beloved. Happy Birthday to the little guy!! Hope you all have a great day!!

    ReplyDelete

  72. Pssssh, when I saw people started getting Dearly, Beloved, I all but dropped unconscious to the floor. I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS UP FOR REVIEW. Best believe I jumped NetGalley so fast, I barely blinked. Can't wait for my approval! I need an approval. I didn't realize how much I wanted to read the next book until I saw it up :DD

    And Jessica's Guide! Have you read that one? It's one of my first paranormal books and I absolutely adore it. Still, don't own it but for my kindle though, which is distinctly wonky. I'll have to rectify that. WHAT A DEAL! Good for you :DD

    Give Handsome a peck on the cheek for me, will you? <333

    (And I secretly wish for you to love Saving June as much as me. Just FYI. ;D)
