Hello! This week I’m not doing a vlog because my mouth is all wonky.  If you follow me on Twitter you probably know that I went in a got a tooth pulled at the dentist and I am still talking all weird because of the swollen jaw and such.  The dentist SUCKS! I didn’t get many books this week anyway so it all works out in the end.  Here are the few things I did add to my shelves in the past two weeks:

I came across this boxset at Costco and I can never say no to a good priced set.  It was only $39.99 so I just…

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…

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. Hi everyone! I haven’t done an STS in a while so I hope that 2014 is off to a good start so far. In case some of you have been hiding out in the real world, Jenni who was at Alluring Reads is now part of Xpresso Reads as my new co-blogger! And for STS posts we decided to each do it every other week, so next week will be Jenni’s, and the week after will be me etc. So anyways, I’ve been avoiding shopping in general – including book stores – since the holidays so despite not doing a book haul post…

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. I can’t believe Christmas is here eeek! I love this time of year! I hope everyone has a wonderful week, a great holiday, and make sure to stuff your faces too! Just a note that Xpresso Reads is going on a short hiatus until after the holidays. I want to enjoy time with family instead of worrying about posts and blogging. We also all need a breather once in a while, ya know. I do, however, have a couple of holiday giveaway posts pre-scheduled to go up this week so you can still expect a bit of life on this site. I will…

Can you believe there’s only 10 days before Christmas? Eep! And after this week I have 2 weeks vacation where I don’t have to check my email ONCE! Woot! And then it will be 2014! Talking about 2014 – who’s going to BEA? I’ll be attending again this year and we just booked our hotel (so exciting!) I hope I get to meet even more bloggy friends this year! 🙂
