Stacking the Shelves (56)

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

Oh Em Gee not even 2 weeks before I leave for New York City! Actually, in 2 weeks from today BEA will be over! Who are you most excited to meet (authors)? For me it’s def. Holly Black! Time to start packing soon, lovelies! Ok so holy crappers I have a lot of new sign ups for tours and events over at Xpresso Book Tours so go check that out and sign up for stuff! 😉 And don’t forget to enter the Dare You To prize pack giveaway that went up this week because it’s pretty fantastic!

Reviews on the blog this week:

Stacking the Shelves

 (Click on covers or title links for Goodreads)
I received for review:

 –Everything Breaks by Vicki Grove
–Hidden by Catherine McKenzie

*Big thanks to Simon & Schuster, S&S Audio, All Night Reads, Penguin Books, and HarperCollins Canada for the pretties*

I was gifted
Due to Jenni (Alluring Reads)’s forgetfulness and shopaholicism, she found double copies of these on her shelves and she knew I wanted to read em so she sent them over! Thanks, love muffin! I love your blonde moments! 🙂

–The Space Between by Brenna Yovanoff
–Shine by Lauren Myracle

Have a great week!

 Link me to your book haul! 🙂

    I’m looking forward to The Beautiful and Cursed, I’ll read your review when I’ve finished. I seriously want to read Ten Tiny Breaths, I have it on my Kindle just waiting for a time to squeeze it in. Have fun at the BEA. I hope you get to meet Holly Black! I loved her Tithe series. Enjoy your reads. 🙂

  8. Erin W.

    Great book haul. I’m definitely looking forward to reading The Year of Shadows. I just love the super cute cover! 🙂

  9. Charlotte @ Gypsy Reviews

    Yay you got The Year of Shadows! I got that too a while back and so excited to read it 🙂 I’ve heard Ten Tiny Breaths is fantastic so I hope you enjoy. Happy reading Giselle! Very envious you’re going to BEA but hope you have a fantastic time 🙂

  11. Siiri

    Oh, I hope you’ll love Ten Tiny Breaths. I acutally quite liked it, but didn’t love it. I hope you’ll enjoy all your goodies, hon! 🙂

  13. Shelley Romano

    I just finished reading Ten Tiny Breaths actually, and really can’t wait for the sequel! The Year of Shadows sounds really good as well! Happy Reading!

  15. Amy

    Ahhh I am almost done with Ten Tiny Breaths and it’s good. You got Wallbanger too!!! I am looking forward to listening to that one. I have heard it’s really fun! Everything Breaks sounds awesome. And so lucky that you got The Year of Shadows. I really want to read that one. Great haul babe!! OMG BEA is so close. I really wish I was going, but at least it’s less than 3 months until I get to meet you so I’m excited for that!! I’m totally going to tackle hug you. You have been warned. 😉

  16. Melanie

    Have fun at the BEA, Giselle! (I’ve changed tactics, I will stop moping around and ranting- now I’m just trying my best not to burst. Haha) I really need to begin reading Ten Tiny Breaths one of these days, I’ve heard many great things about it. Hope you enjoy it just as much. ^,^

    Happy reading all those pretties, hon! <33

    I won a copy of Shine ages ago and haven’t had the chance to finish it yet. I read the first few chapters and really liked the writing, though. I can’t wait to see what you think of Ten Tiny Breaths! It’s had some great reviews, though I’m still a little unsure, mostly because it’s not something I would usually go for.

    Have fun at BEA. 🙂

  23. Aman

    Oh, you got Wallbanger! That’s very different from what you usually read, I’m curious to know your thoughts on it. Ten Tiny Breaths was really good, I hope you like it!

  29. Shooting Stars Mag

    Ooh Hidden sounds pretty good. I believe I have another book from her that I need to get to this summer. Yay for getting Shine. That’s one book I’ve been wanting to read for a LONG time.

  33. Bonnie R

    Oooh… Year of Shadows! That one sounds really good, I can’t wait for that one to release. I saw Hidden on someones WoW post forever ago and wanted it super bad but it’s a Canada only release… hope the US pubs pick it up too. 🙂 Happy Reading, girlie!
    My Showcase Sunday!

  34. Lauren Elizabeth

    Ooh I’m so excited to read The Year of Shadows and Ten Tiny Breaths. I’ve heard wonderful things about the latter, and I love Claire LeGrand, so I’m looking forward to reading both! Curious also to hear what you think of Wallbanger. I’ve seen some good reviews for it! Happy reading 🙂

  35. Christina

    I was all ready for my weekly dose of jealousy and “why don’t I live in Canada?” when, lo, I don’t need any of these. Well, okay, I do need Year of Shadows, but I think I’m getting it from YABC. I do also want Shine, but it’s not a review book, so I wouldn’t have time for it anyway, so this week I don’t have to badger you for the keys to the secret ARC store. I make no promises about next week.
