Xpresso Weekly: Stacking the Shelves (50)

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

Hiya guys! I hope you’re all fab! I’m finally getting over this heck of a cold or flu I’ve had for almost a month now–holy mother of craziness! Summer can not get here fast enough! Plus, BEA is in no time and I’m stoked! Hope I’ll see a bunch of y’all there! 😀 So this week on the blog we posted on 3rd round of Cover Madness Giveaway! Don’t miss it it’s pretty epic! And I had a sneak peek on Bitter Angel with a chance to win as well!

That’s all for me, muffins!

    Awesome books, as usual 😀 Sky on Fire is the sequel to Monument 14? It’s confusing because it has both titles on there! I hope you like Across the Universe, I didn’t but that’s because the scientist in me couldn’t handle all the science errors lol.

    I haven’t read The Book Thief, but I really want to, everyone keeps saying it’s awesome!

    Happy reading dearest!

    AAAHHHH! The Book Thief <3 It's a real tear jerker and just kept me thinking about for AGES. I do hope you enjoy it 🙂 I also got Dirty Little Secret, I haven't read any of Jennifer's books but this one caught me at the synopsis. Great haul and yay for all those audiobooks!! XD

  6. Kathy Ann Coleman

    Oh, you got Dirty Little Secret. I’m dying to read that!

    Hidden was pretty good. Don’t think I actually reviewed that one, actually. I read the House of Night books so faithfully it probably slipped my mind.

    I have Eve and Adam sitting here. Tried starting it last night and it didn’t click with me–I don’t think I’m in the right mood.

    Anyway, I hope you enjoy all your new books. Have a great week!

    The Book Thief and If I Stay are awesome books, I hope you enjoy them! I can’t wait to see what you think of Dirty Little Secret, I’m so excited to read that one. Happy reading!

    I’m actually looking forward to Sky on Fire the sequel to Monument 14 even though it appears to be much shorter in length then the first book. I’ve seen a few people get approved for Golden this week. Looking forward to your thoughts on that as well! Enjoy and have a great day!

  14. Amy

    I got Dirty Little Secret too!! Look at all those great audiobooks from Macmillan. I listened to the audiobook of Tempest and loved it. It was a fantastic audio. Great haul babe!!

  17. Carmen B.

    Oh wow, you got a lot of awesome review books! I’ve heard great things about Golden, and I’d love to read Dirty Little Secret 🙂 I also need to read a Sherrilyn Kenyon book already! Shame on me…
    I have The Book Thief on my shelf from when I found it at the secondhand store but haven’t read it yet. Pretty much everyone seems to love it though 🙂
    Have fun reading and listening to your new books!

    Great haul, Giselle!
    Golden sounds like such an interesting read! I’m excited for its release.
    Hope you enjoy all your pretties, Giselle!
    Happy reading!

    Awesome goodies this week! I haven’t read Eve & Adam or Vortex yet, and I love audiobooks! I’d love to review them!! I sent you an email.

  23. Renae M.

    I LOVE your library books this week, Giselle! Markus Zusak is one of my favorite authors, and I really enjoyed Beth Revis’s trilogy. I’ve also heard really great things about Golden, so I hope you love that one as well.

    Have an amazing week! 😀

    I read The Book Thief over the summer almost two years ago and I still remember it I enjoyed the story a lot. I also read If I Stay not to long ago and that book had me a mess but I still loved it and can’t wait to read the companion novel. Happy Reading 🙂

    I have not read (or heard of, yikes) The Becoming series, but that definitely looks like my kind of book! 🙂 The TBR list grows… I have not heard of Golden either, but I like the tagline because it reminds me of The Outsiders. 🙂

    Yayy! I got Golden too, I’m very excited for that one. If I stay is a WONDERFUL audio, I’d also recommend Where She Went on audio as well (when you get there!) I really need to read The Book Thief as well… I’ll be interested to see how the audio is, I may go that route. Happy Reading!

    I didn’t realize that you listened to audiobooks. That’s a pretty awesome group of books/audiobooks today. I’ve been on an audiobook kick lately, so I should check out MacMillan Audio ASAP. 🙂 Cheers!

  33. Kara_Malinczak

    Will you like Dirty Little Secret? That is the big question. Because I want to read it. But I had bad luck with the LAST Echols book I read.

    Your into audiobooks now? That’s a new one.

  35. Megan K.

    Awesome haul as always, Giselle! 😉 Monument 14 was quite an enjoyable book, so I hope its sequel is equally as good. And wow! So many audiobooks! Believe it or not I haven’t listened to an audiobook before because it’s crazy expensive, and my library doesn’t have them. :/ How are they, though? Are they good? Anyway, definitely looking forward to your thoughts on all these.

    Have a lovely week, cupcake. 🙂

  36. Jasprit

    I really can’t wait to read Golden, it sounds like such a raw contemporary, something which I’ve been in the mood for lately! I also received a Dirty Little Secret, I haven’t had much luck with Echols books, so I’m hoping this will be a lot of fun! Hope you enjoy your pretties Giselle! 🙂

  38. Lauren

    Fab books this week! Can’t wait to hear what you think of Golden and Dirty Little Secrets. I love Jessi and Jennifer’s writing so much. Glad you’re feeling better, and happy reading 🙂

  39. Micheline D

    Eeeeek Across the Universe!!! I wanna read it NOW 😀 Heard great things about Monument 14 and If I stay, hope you enjoy ALL your goodies doll!
