Giselle’s Stacking the Shelves [Jan. 26]

Posted by Giselle

Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews featuring the books we got this week, and I also mention blog news/happenings of the past week.

How is everyone this week? It’s been pretty quiet for me. Just letting winter pass along I guess. So me and Jenni both have birthdays in February and we’ve been talking about doing an awesome giveaway to celebrate. Let’s see what we can come up with >.< As for my haul this week I got a very gorgeous packaged book in the mail which apparently is old news now (they save us Canadians for last – but you all know what that means ;), and then a few ebooks I was very excited for! Let’s take a look and I’m back to binge-watching TV this evening – I love lazy weekends! (Anyone else watching Hart of Dixie? So addicting!)

THIS WEEK’S BOOK HAUL:
(Click on covers for Goodreads)

I received for review:



 

And here’s the awesome Winner’s Curse package I mentioned – Big thanks to MacKids!

*Thanks to Macmillan, Hachette Book Group Canada, Simon & Schuster Canada, Tanglewood Press, Random House Publishing, Little, Brown and Company, and Krista and Becca Ritchie for these pretties!*

That’s all for me this week!

   My Last Kiss and The Geography of You and Me look like really cute reads! And that package for The Winner’s Curse is absolutely gorgeous. If only they sent them to the AUS!

   Happy reading, Giselle! <33

   Curious to see what you think of The Body in The Woods. I loved her other two YA thriller books, so I’m hoping this is just as good. I’ve heard nothing but good things about TWC. Can’t wait to try it myself!

   Nice haul, Giselle, I haven’t heard of any of these books before, but my goodness those covers are gorgeous! I hope what’s inside the covers will be just as good as the outside – or even better.

   Have a peaceful Sunday.

    Ah, The Winners Curse. I can’t wait for that one! Also, the cover for Fever is WEIRD. But I love it!

    Hart of Dixie– love that show! Have a good week!

    OMG Giselle! KISS THE SKY :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D I advise you to hold off a little, because you’ll want Daisy and Ryke’s book BAD!!! I adored the story and even though Connor and Rose weren’t anything I expected them to be (in the bedroom), I still loved it thoroughly and I can’t wait to get more from that world. Second Star has a cute cover, and let’s not even start on The Winner’s Curse. Oh, and as for your question. Yep, I do watch HoD. I love the humor and the gossip and the awkward situations 😀 It’s a heartwarming show and well.. ZADE. Sigh. 🙂

    I was hoping for The Last Forever but never did get it … I did receive To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before. Can’t wait to read it! And I love the cover for My Last Kiss … gorgeous!

    LOVE Hart of Dixie! Have a season pass for Season 3 right now on iTunes, but I’m a little behind. Hoping for a snow day tomorrow to catch up! *crosses fingers

    Also, jealous of your awesome Winner’s Curse ARC and package – gorgeous!

    Kristen@My Friends Are Fiction January 26th, 2014 18:23:23

    I LOVE the packaging for TWC arc. So beautiful. I am very curious about Body in the Woods and My Last Kiss. I requested both so fingers crossed. I am timid about Second Star since it has a contemporary setting (not really my thing) but I can’t wait to hear what you think about it. Great haul!

    Oooh! Yay for Second Star! I REALLY want to read that one. (I may or may not be a little obsessed with Peter Pan. Plus surfing?! What could go wrong!) Happy reading. 🙂 My StS!

    Yes the packaging on The Winner’s Curse is gorgeous. I only have an e-galley so enjoy your pretty packing. The Geography of You and Me looks pretty cute. I am also interested in the Robin York since I am a fan or Ruthie Knox. Happy reading!
