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.
I stopped by the library this week to pick up some of my requests that had come in and … walked out with four other titles as well. Most of the time I go straight to the spot where the requests are and don’t venture any further, but my self-control wasn’t so good that day. Combine that with a bunch of books that were actually in that I’ve been wanting to read, and this is what you get! Needless to say, this was quite a large week for me in terms of my acquisitions!

Alice @ Alice in Readerland
I’m so excited that I was approved for How My Summer Went Up in Flames. It sounds awesome!
So much books! :D I really want to read Breathe soon!
So many delicious books! Enjoy them all.
That looks like a nice stack of books. I have If I Lie from the library too, but haven’t gotten to it yet. I read Touched by Corrine Jackson and really enjoyed it. If I Lie seems quite different, though.
Happy reading :)
I’ve never read a book by her, but have heard really great things about If I Lie, so I’m excited to start it. :)
Wow, so many of your books are books I’ve been wanting to read! Off to follow you now :)) Happy reading!
Stacking the Shelves @ Divergent Gryffindor
Thanks for the follow! :)
Oooh, I’m reading Blood Red Road at the moment, it’s pretty good! Looks like a great library haul! :)
I’ll look out for your thoughts on The Maze Runner and Chantress too.
Great haul, and happy reading.
I’m excited about Chantress. It sounds really awesome. I keep hearing good things about Blood Red Road, so am looking forward to it.
I’ve made a resolution this year to not go overboard at the library until I get through my books at home, which have been long neglected. I loved Blood Red Road and need to read the sequel eventually. Enjoy all of your books! :)
Our StS
Yeah, I normally don’t allow myself to even peruse the shelves because I just don’t have the time necessary to read them in a timely manner.
Oh, you’ve been very busy! I love your haul! I’ve read The Maze Runner and Obsidian, and I love them! Hope you’ll get the Daemon fever! ;)
I just posted mine. :)
Daemon’s character makes me leery, because I tend to get annoyed with the boys who act like asses, but we’ll see how it goes! Every keeps raving about her books so I jumped at the cheap price. :)
Woooohh!! Awesome haul! I hope you enjoy If I Lie-that was one of my favorite books in 2012!! There was some awesome ebook sales this week… but sadly I missed out on Obsidian :( I hope you enjoy all your great reads!!!
I’ve heard great things about If I Lie so I’m excited to get to it. Hopefully soon!
That is an awesome haul! I hope you enjoy your books!
Thank you! :)
