Stacking the Shelves

Books have finally started to arrive after the holidays. I'm still waiting for To All The Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han. It will probably be here sometime next week.

Dreams of Gods & Monsters is HUGE! When I got the package I thought Fishpond packed both Laini and Jenny's books together but nope. It was just this beast. I still haven't read Days of Blood & Starlight.

What I Thought Was True is so pretty. I could stare at the cover for hours.

Haven't posted StS since early March so I thought I would share with you guys what I got since then. I bought all of them except Side Effects May Vary and Charm and Strange. I won those two books. And, my mom bought Lola and the Boy Next Door for my birthday since she knew how much I love Stephanie Perkins and her characters(especially Lola and Cricket). 

I still need to read Ruins, Into the Still Blue, Charm and Strange, Cress and The Winner's Curse. 

I'm currently reading Side Effects May Vary and it's really interesting. Plus, the main character doesn't give a damn about anything or anybody which is refreshing since most of the main characters I've come across with are too good to be true. 

Sorry for the day/night pictures. I took them a couple of minutes apart and they still look weird.

I bought these used books a month ago and finally got them because they were delivered to my cousin's address (Awesome Books doesn't ship to my country). 

I only read Jennifer Echols' books from the pile but I had to have them as well. 

Has anyone read The Casual Vacancy? The reviews aren't glowing.

Just realized I haven't posted my StS since late November. Oops. :/ 

Bought:

Bought these used books on Awesome Books. They were really cheap and I saved a lot of money. 

I already read Entangled and Catching Fire two years ago and they're of my favorites so I just had to have them. 

I also finished Cinder a couple of days ago. Going Bovine and The Scorpio Races are already on the top of my TBR pile. 

 For review:

*screams*

When I saw the Strange Chemistry's newsletter I just had to put on a request for this book. Didn't receive a response and thought I wouldn't be getting but then it just showed up on my doorstep a week ago. I'm really excited about this particular book. Now I just have to find the time to read it.  

 Won:

I would like to thank all of the bloggers and authors for sending these books to me. I recently finishes Splintered so I think I'll read Unhinged sometime next week.

 I'd like to thank my dear friend +Tanja - Tanychy for giving me her (second) copy of This Is Not A Test. I actually won this book last year but never got it and Tanja remembered I didn't get it and offered it to me. Love you, girl. :*

I'm really excited to start these books, so much I don't know which one to pick first. I'm in a romantic mood right now so I think I'll give Just One Year a try first.

What did you get this week? 

Stacking the Shelves

I haven't posted the books I got since September 1st. Sorry about that. I usually love to do this type of posts cause I want to see what other people bought but life often gets in the way of blogging. 

I recently finished my first, real, grown-up job and I was so glad to finally find some time to breathe, I didn't read as much as I used to. 

Since I didn't have enough time to read/review/blog from late August till pretty much now I can't really remember which books I received in the meantime but I'll try my best in the future to include some of them in next week's haul. 

These are the books I got this week

Bought:

The Diviners by Libba Bray

Stolen by Lucy Christopher

Where She Went by Gayle Forman

Love Story by Jennifer Echols

All used and ordered on Awesome Books. Check out the prices on their used selection. You can also check out one of my earlier hauls HERE to see the other second hand books I ordered on their site. All were in great condition. 

Sorry if anyone finds this as a type of advertisement. It isn't. I'm just trying to broaden other people's horizons with some alternative choices for book ordering.  

Won:

The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay

I've been waiting for this book since April and it finally arrived a couple of days ago. I'm not sure why did it take so long to get to me. 

One of my best has already read Jenny Rat and she said it was one of those most heartbreaking books she's ever read. I'm going to read it very soon.

I'm been job hunting so I've been MIA on the blog for awhile. I didn't get any new books this week but here's my last week's haul I forgot to post. Bought these pretties on AwesomeBooks . They don't ship to Bosnia so I asked my cousin from Slovenia if it was OK to use his address. He came for a visit a few days ago so I got them really fast. I'm super excited to start reading them. If only it was easier to decide which one to start first.

Midwinterblood by Marcus Sedgwick

Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys

The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman

Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

A Note of Madness by Tabitha Suzuma

Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff

I paid them around 18EUR which is around $23. Pretty good for 3 HCs and 3 PBs. 

I already read These Broken Stars and will write the review today so it should be up sometime next week. Hover is the next on my TBR pile. Here's my review of Gravity, the first book in The Taking trilogy/series. You should check it out. It's a fast paced sci-fi novel. You won't regret reading it.

I finally got my April requests from MiraInk. Yay! Now I'm just If I Die and Before I Wake to have the whole Soul Screamers collection. I'll probably have a Soul Screamers read-along in the fall with a friend or two, if I convince someone to join me. I've read My Soul to Take in 2011 and I can't remember anything so I just might re-read it too.
Last year I discovered a genre called fantasy. I know it seems weird since I've obviously heard of it before (duh!) but I've never been a fan. Not until I read books like Shadow and Bone and Throne of Glass. A couple of months ago I read Snyder's Touch of Power and I liked her writing style very much. Everybody said Poison Study is her best work so when I saw that MiraInk also published it, I just had to have it.

1. With All My Soul by Rachel Vincent 
2. Poison Study by Maria V.Snyder 

I didn't get any new egalleys. Thank God for small miracles. I don't think I would have the time to read them anyway. I requested The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater but I highly doubt I'll get approved.
