Stacking the Shelves (19)


Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!  It is hosted by Tynga's Reviews.

Pam's Weekly Haul

 From NetGalley:
Witch Finder by Ruth Warburton:  Guy has to track down and kill a witch and he falls in love with her...I'm all over that.
Defy by Sarah B. Larson:  Girl disguised as a guard to protect a prince?  Sounds good to me!

Sheri's Bounty of Books

From the Library:
Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins, I just finished Anna and the French Kiss and I need more.  The first in the series was the perfect blend of high school angst, first love, and overcoming personal insecurities plus it was set in Paris, France!

Bought:
Across A Star Swept Sea by Diana Peterfreund, I loved the first book in this series, For Darkness Shows the Stars, because it was a wonderful retelling of Jane Austen's Persuasion but also because it made me think about the consequences of biological innovation!

 

What did you add to your shelves this week?

    I also got Defy! And I want to read Across a Star Swept Sea so bad! I've heard great things about it. :)

      I am really loving Across A Star Swept Sea but it did take me awhile to adjust to the new location and characters since I had just read for Darkness Shows the Stars! ~Sheri

      Hopefully you both find time to read Witch Finder because I want to know if I should add it to my TBR shelf. ~Sheri

    Pam - You got the same eARC that I got (one from last week). I hope we both enjoy them! I LOVED Across A Star-Swept Sea. It is so good! I hope you enjoy it, Sheri!

      I would highly recommend starting with For Darkness Shows the Stars before reading Across A Star Swept Sea but you don't have to ~Sheri

    I'm really excited to read Witch Finder. That cover is so fun. I actually just finished re-reading Lola and the Boy Next Door. Anna and the French Kiss is one of my ALL-time favorites. Lola's fun, too, but I don't have quite the same love for it. I still need to read For Darkness. I've been meaning to for forever! Great hauls this week!

    Lola is awesome! Not as good as Anna in my opinion, but still up there. Plus Anna and Etienne make a few good cameos in it, so I'm sure you'll love it. If only Isla would come out soon so I could get back into that world!

    I really want to read For Darkness Shows the Stars; that looks really great and especially now the sequel is out. I also got Witch Finder; sounds like a great read. Enjoy your books.
