Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews, which is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. You can read more about the creation of Stacking the Shelves by visiting the official launch page here.

My stop on the At What Cost Blog Tour was posted earlier today, and features a giveaway of three e-book copies of the book. The giveaway is open internationally, so make sure you enter! Between October 1st and December 31st, I’m participating in the Review Copy Wipeout, so am going to attempt to get all of my outstanding galleys/ARCs read during that time. We’ll see how it goes!

Great haul, Merin! Partials was a so-so read for me; it was a little more science-oriented than the dystopians I’m used to reading. Phantom looks like an interesting retelling; I look forward to your review of it! Happy reading!

Great Haul! I have Partials but still need to read it. Thanks for stopping by and Happy Reading!
Great haul! :D
My StS!! :)
Happy reading!
You got Splintered?! Well jealous. They declined me about a billion times. Although I did hear it wasn’t that good. Still, I’ll look out for your thoughts!
I’ve heard great things about the Partials, so I might have to pick it up myself. I have seen it cheap on Amazon and for such a huge book to get a cheap kindle version is great!
Happy reading, Merin.
I picked up Partials because of the sale. I won’t spend more than $4 on e-books, with a couple of exceptions (the Heroes of Olympus books, most notably). And I’ve heard some good things about it, so figured, why not?
Exactly and I know your feelings about e-books, why would I want to spend more than £4 on something that I don’t physically hold as such.
So have I. I hope you enjoy it and I’ll look out for your review which might convince me to get it too.
Liesl & Po is such a sweet book! The drawings in it are really pretty :) And you have Splintered <3 I keep requesting it, haha. I really. really. really need a copy from Netgalley.
Happy reading! :D
Squee, you got Splintered! Nice! Enjoy all the new books and happy reading! If you would like to check out my Stacking The Shelves post you can do so here. :)
Oh wow, great haul! Liesl & Po was one of my absolute favorite reads of 2012, I hope you love it as much as I did! I’m dying to read Partials & super curious about Splintered! Enjoy all your goodies and thanks for sharing :)
