Xpresso Weekly: Stacking the Shelves (46)

Posted by

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.
This week at Xpresso Reads

Don’t forget to turn your clocks ahead tonight! Kind of sucky to lose an hour of sleep though, but yay for longer days and the first sign of spring! 😀 Did you all have a good week? Don’t forget to enter the If You Find Me giveaway that ends in a few days! I also posted a bunch of new covers on my Facebook page! Don’t miss the lovelies! Lastly, I wanted to mention again the book blogger meetup  in Boston in August! You from around there and interested in coming? If so, join our Facebook group!

    I’m really looking forward to reading your thoughts on In The Shadow of Blackbirds. On Every Street should be as good as the first book since it’s Karina! Enjoy your reading!

    On Every Street looks interesting. I still need to read Sins and Needles. You got so many great books. The Runaway King cover reminds me of the Game of Thrones covers.

    To be completely honest, I haven’t heard of a lot of these titles, which surprises me a bit. However, I have heard some really positive reviews for In the Shadows of Blackbirds, so I’m interested to see if you like that one, Giselle! Anywhere But Here looks like a really good book, I’m totally going to be checking that one out.

    Enjoy all your lovely books, Giselle! <3

    Yay for that artist trilogy book so you can satisfy your addiction to Ms. K. Halle! I want to read Anywhere But Here so bad. I love that cover and it sounds like a really great read. I hope you enjoy!

  12. Kara_Malinczak

    Ooooh, I just finished working on On Every Street last night and it is epic. I cannot wait to hear your thoughts. It was really moody, angsty, and creepy at the same time.

    I’ve heard great things about In the Shadow of Blackbirds too. Enjoy! I think I’ll be reading that soon as well!

  14. Jasprit

    I’ve heard some really good things about In the Shadow of Blackbirds, so I can’t wait to see what you think of it! I hope you enjoy the rest of your books too Giselle! 🙂

    I keep being reminded that I’m a scared wimp for not starting The Runaway King by this point. I’m just so scared to wait after a cliffhanger and all these other anxiety-related excuses and OH MAN. I just need to do it. I will do it. Soon. But, anyway, enjoy! <3

    Weird, Astarte’s Wrath is the exact same cover as a book I got a few weeks back; Cleopatra Ascending. Except on this version she doesn’t have an Egyptian looking crown. o.O In the Shadows of Blackbirds is one I’m really interested in!! Oh and lucky you for getting The Runaway King 😀 I still haven’t read my copy of the first book but I’m really excited to – I hear it’s great! Congrats on all of these Giselle ♥

  25. Jenni @ Alluring Reads

    Anywhere But Here, Yay! I can’t wait to read that one, it sounds right up both of our alleys. Oh and On Every Street, can’t wait to see where that one goes. Great haul chickie!

    I can’t wait to see what you think of The Runaway King, I know you wanted that one sooooooo bad 😉

  26. Amy

    Anywhere But Here sounds so good!! Astarte’s Wrath has such a pretty cover. I definitely like the redesigned on better. Shadow of Blackbirds sounds good too. Great haul babe!

  28. Jen (A Reading Daydreamer)

    The Shadow of Blackbirds sounds like a fantastically creepy read, I really hope you enjoy it! And I still need to pick up Sins & Needles after reading your awesome review on it, let alone the novella. Happy reading, Giselle!

  30. Renae M.

    I’ve heard fantastic things about The Shadow of Blackbirds, so I hope you like it, Giselle! (So I can decide if I want to pick it up, too, haha.)

    Have a wonderful week!

  34. Bonnie R

    I really enjoyed In the Shadow of Blackbirds… hope you do too! And ahhh! On Every Street. I just got this one and am so crazy excited. I feel guilty about starting it since I have three books going already but I don’t care. 😀 Happy reading!!

  38. Megan K.

    IN THE SHADOW OF BLACKBIRDS – yay! I’ve been dying to read that book (I got rejected on NetGalley, unfortunately), since I heard that there were PICTUREEEEZZZ. Of course, the reviews were pretty good, too. Really hope you enjoy it, Giselle – can’t wait to hear what you think!
