Jenni’s Stacking the Shelves [July 27]

Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews featuring new additions to our bookshelves.



Hiya! I always want to put in this first paragraph what is new with my in my personal life but I really don’t have a lot going on right now.  I did manage to get over a pretty bad reading slump this past week (Thanks to Bekka who recommended me Jellicoe Road. If you have this book unread on your shelf READ IT NOW. Thank me later.) I did manage to get some good books this week, so here they are!

From Simon & Schuster Canada I got Girl Defective and Beauty of the Broken.  I’ve already read Girl Defective and while it wasn’t my favourite novel ever it was entertaining and had some good characters and relationships.  I am this weird mixture of incredibly nervous and ridiculously excited for Beauty because that one sounds really heavy on the emotion.  From Hachette Book Group Canada I got The Doubt Factory which sounds really good as well! Thank you to S&S and HBG for these pretties! Last but not least I got Dangerous Boys from the awesome Abigail McDonald! I so loved Dangerous Girls and I can’t wait to read this one, so much so that I am going to start it as soon as I finish this post!

 I bought this one this past week at Costco because I felt like I had to due to the fact that I have all the others in the series.  I really don’t know if I will ever read these, but I have them! LOL

What have you added to your shelves lately?

    We told you that it gets better! 😀 Jellicoe Road is just a gorgeous book and it’ll probably stay with me till the end of time. There is just something about it and the way Marchetta works her magic. I am REALLY glad to see you ended up loving it!

    I haven’t heard of Beauty of the Broken but the title demands I check it out (sometimes I get lured in by intriguing titles too)! I am so HAPPY that you got Dangerous Boys as well especially since you adored Dangerous Girls so much!! 😀 I hope you’ll love it!! 😀

    Great Haul, Jenni and have a GREAT week! 🙂

    So many people are loving having Dangerous Boys and I swear, it’s a fantastic read really, the more notice Abby can get for her work, the better, because it’s seriously wonderful that she’s getting more notice for her work! 😀 Hope you love it Jenni!

    Jellicoe Road is one of my all-time favourites. So glad it got you out of your slump! And Dangerous Boys! I have Dangerous Girls waiting for me and I can’t wait to give it a try. Have heard nothing but good things. Enjoy all your new books! 🙂

    Jellicoe Road sounds interesting. Beauty of The Broken has a gorgeous cover. The premise seems interesting too. I just bought the first Divergent book last month. 🙂 I’m way behind in my YA series.

    As for what I’ve added to my shelves, well, I’ve added nine books as of yesterday. Booksales are wonderful. 🙂 $5 Bag Day Sales are even better. <3 There will be a blog about that later this week though. Haha.

    Ooooh Dangerous Boys! I’m starting a buddy read for Dangerous Girls today and I cannot wait to hear what you think of Dangerous boys, Jenni!

    Oooh yay for Four! I still need to get my hands on that just because it’s so gorgeous. I hope you enjoy all your unread goodies! I actually haven’t gotten many new books recently which is both good and bad. :3
