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 bookish lovelies! I hope you’re all having a great weekend! I’ve been fighting off a cold for the past week so I’m mostly doing nothing or watching TV – which I’m not complaining about I guess πŸ˜‰ Any good movies you’ve seen lately? I’ve been binge-watching The Good Wife but once that’s done I’ll need some new entertainment! So this week I only got a few eBooks. I think our city and driveaway are so deeply buried in snow that no mail could even reach be to be honest >.<



BOOK HAUL:

I received for review:
IMM1 IMM2 IMM3
IMM4 IMM5

*Thanks to Simon & Schuster, Jennifer Iacopelli, HarperCollins, and Random House for these pretties!*


You know you love me!
XOXO, Book Girl

How is your February going so far? Anything special planned for Valentine’s day? So this week was pretty hectic for me – we got like 3 snow storms and with daycare closed I don’t get much work done. Is summer here yet? >.< I mean, look at the snow we got O_O So yeah, I’ll just be inside reading forever okay!? Β

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! πŸ™‚

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’s everyone this weekend? Getting your Christmas shopping done? I’m all about shopping online πŸ˜€ But yeah blog people seem to be going quieter and quieter for the holidays. A few are on hiatus and such. I will likely be putting mine on a few day hiatus when it comes close to Christmas. No one really reads blogs those days anyhow, plus I rather spend time with my lil one than worry about posting πŸ™‚ So I went a lil crazy with digital ARCs this week – weeks like these are when my lack of self control shows through >.< Also before you…

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. Hello lovely people of books! Have you all been to see Catching Fire yet? Thoughts? I really liked it and can’t wait for the 3rd! Also – did you see the Vampire Academy trailer too? Was that a joke? Is it meant to be a parody? PLEASE TELL ME THAT WAS NOT REAL!! *clears throat* Ok so yeah. I know we’ve been a bit scarce on our posting of our BGDC feature we all got kind of busy, but we’re getting in that groove again. This week I posted about book sizes! Also I have a few giveaways happening at the moment –…

I’ve been keeping busy and warm! Who’s going to see Catching Fire this week? We’re going on Friday night and I’m so stoked! I’m also going to need to stay away from Twitter on Friday until the show so I don’t stumble upon many reviews/opinions on it. I want no swayed expectations! BE GOOD, MOVIE!! Ok so yeah, on to some books πŸ™‚
