Stacking the Shelves is a new weekly meme hosted by Tynga of Tynga's Reviews. It's a weekly post where book bloggers share and showcase the books they received throughout the week.
So it's been a while since I've done a Stacking the Shelves post but I'm finally back and I have lots of books to share. This week I got back after having spent a month and half traveling so I had a fair amount of books waiting for me and then more showed up during the course of the week. And of course after having been away for so long I just had to go to the bookstore and that of course resulted in even more books. So without further ado, here are the books.
Review
- Pilgrims Don't Wear Pink by Stephanie Kate Strohm - I haven't really heard much about this one, but it's been on my radar for a while since it sounds like a really fun and light read. It looks like it would make the perfect read for a summer day.
- Never Enough by Denise Jaden - I read this one this week and it was a really good read. Denise Jaden really knows how to tackle tougher issues and do it in a powerful way. Expect a review, an interview with the author and maybe even a giveaway for this coming this week.
- The Dead I Know by Scot Gardner (x2) - I'm participating in the blog tour for this one in August but the book itself looks really interesting and I've been told it's a great read so I can't wait to read it.
- Winter White by Jen Calonita - I absolutely loved Belles, the first in this series, when I read it so I can't wait to see what happens next.
- Lucky Fools by Coert Voorhees - From the summary, this sounds like a really funny book but maybe with more serious undertones and I love those stories.
- Enchanted by Alethea Kontis - I've seen really great reviews for this one and if I'm not mistaken, it's a fairy tale retelling so I'm really excited to read it.
- Mister Death's Blue-Eyed Girls by Mary Downing Hahn - This is definitely a more serious story but I love the sound of it. Hopefully I'll be able to read it soon.
- Confessions of a Murder Suspect by James Patterson - I may not be James Patterson's biggest fan, but I really liked the sound of this book so I'm happy to have a copy fore review.
Big thanks so Thomas Allen, HBG Canada, Penguin Canada and Simon & Schuster Canada for all of these great books!
Purchased:
- Dark Frost by Jennifer Estep - Already read this one and it was awesome. If you liked the first two books in this series you are going to love this one.
- Storm by Brigid Kemmerer - I started reading this one today and so far it's good, can't wait to see where the story goes.
- Struck by Jennifer Bosworth - I've read a few pages of this one and it looked pretty good. I can't wait to get more into it since it's supposed to be awesome.
- Taken by Storm by Jennifer Lynn Barnes - SO EXCITED to have this one. I love this story and I can't wait to see how it all ends.
- Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson - This book had me at Peter Pan. And then I found out it was amazing so I was powerless against it.
- Misguided Angel by Melissa de la Cruz - I still have to start this series, but the hardcover was on sale at Chapters so I had to buy since I have all the ones that come before it in the series.
So those are all the books I got. Next week definitely shouldn't be as intense since I won't be showing over a month's worth of books. Also today is my 2 year blogoversary but since things have been a little crazy I haven't had time to do anything for it, but keep and eye out for some celebrations this week.
I can not wait to hear your thoughts on The Dead I Know...I was deeply moved by it.... great week...

I really can't wait to see what you think of Storm and Tiger Lily! I loved Storm and cannot wait to get to TL. I actually heard it's in the point of view of tinkerbell.

I keep hearing great things about Pilgrims Don't Wear Pink. And I absolutely can't wait to read Tiger Lily.
ReplyDeleteOkay I am so jealous of Pilgrims Don't Wear Pink, Tiger Lily, Winter White, Enchanted, Never Enough, Struck, and Dark Frost! Those look AMAZING and Storm was also a really good book! I haven't read Belles though but I am in love with Jen Calonita's books that I really want to read it now!
