Stacking the Shelves (56)


It's that time of the week again! This week I got some sweet ARC's, a prize came in the mail and I also did a little book shopping!  Here are my new goodies:


I got The Beautiful and the Cursed after winning it in a giveaway on Xpresso Reads and I got Spark from St. Martins Press.  I don't have the first book in that series but I guess I am going to have to grab it so I can start on the series.


On Tuesday after putting the brats to bed I snuck off to Chapters and got some contemporary reads that I think look really good! They both sound pretty gritty and right up my alley.

eBook haul (click cover for Goodreads):

A big thank you to Giselle, Randomhouse Canada, Flux Books, Disney Book Group and St. Martin's Press this week!

In case you missed it, Giselle and I have decided to open up our popular Cover Madness Giveaway so that everyone can get in on the fun.  This is always the biggest event for my blog so be sure to click the button below to visit the page and get your name on that linky!

  3. Boo, no video today? I've heard mixed things on Spark but I've always kind of wanted to try it out so I'm excited to read any thoughts on it. I have an arc of Beautiful and the cursed waiting for me to get to it SO HOPEFULLY SOON for that one.

    And I've never heard of the last two! I love the cover for... After, is it? Enjoy the haul, friend!

  4. I liked the setting and gargoyle aspect of The Beautiful and The Cursed, but the characters didn't really stand out to me. Curious to see what you think!

    I also got All Our Yesterdays this week! I'm so excited to start it, I've heard it's amazing!

    Awesome book haul. ^^

  10. All Our Yesterdays was a great read for me. Things fall together really well towards the end, so it does take some patience. I can't wait to see what you think of it! I'm also really curious about The Truth About Me & You. Mostly because I like the cover, hah. ;)

  12. I'm VERY jealous of The Beautiful and the Cursed! I'm rather kicking myself that I didn't buy it last week at B&N while shopping! I had it in my hands but haven't read any reviews on it yet, just LOVE the summary and cover! Oh well. Happy reading girlie!
