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.
This week continues my theme of “way too many library books coming in all at once”! There is no way I’m going to be able to get all of these read by their due dates, even with three renewals allowed (assuming there aren’t any other requests for them). Hopefully this will be the end of my requests coming in for a while!

Ohh I am envious of Between the Devil..great haul!
Thank you! I really didn’t expect to get approved for it.
Awesome haul Merin! I really, REALLY need to get a library card… I’m so envious of your library books and there stunning noisy covers, lol. I got The Nightmare Affair this week too and I did a little happy dance, I’m DYING to read it lol. And you got SPELLBINDING – so freakin’ excited for you… I want to read that soooo badly! :) I hope you enjoy everything !!
You definitely should get one! My library is pretty good about getting in the titles I want to read, with a few exceptions. They don’t really like HarperTeen titles for some reason!
The Nightmare Affair was the other one that I got really excited about. I sure hope they live up to my expectations! :)
Ohhhh Brides of Rollrock Island! I got that one as well. I also have a copy of Dead and Buried, I really need to read that soon!!! Great haul!

Thank you! This is definitely my best week in a LONG time. :)
I was almost 100 pages into The Brides of Rollrock Island and still wavering about whether or not I wanted to finish it. But then I found that I couldn’t put the book down, and I ended up really enjoying it. I can’t wait to see what you think of it!
Oh, that bodes well! You and I seem to have similar taste, so hopefully I will like it as well.
Fabulous books this week. I can’t wait to read Taken, Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea and The S Word. Happy reading!
Here’s my Stacking The Shelves!
Magisterium looks interesting, so I’ll look out for your thoughts on this one.
Oooh, looks like you have lots of books for review that all look great. Taken and The Nightmare Affair are the ones I’ll look out for your thoughts on most.
Congrats on the acceptance from Penguin too. :)
Thanks! I have way too many books for review, LOL. Time to go back on my NetGalley/Edelweiss ban. :-P
The Dead and Buried was a lot of fun. I didn’t love it as much as I was hoping to, but I did like it.
Hope you enjoy all your books
I always bring home way more books from the library than I could ever read. Glad to know I am not the only one :)
They all sounds amazing, though I haven’t read most of them! My eyes are on Taken and Spellbinding! :)
