Stacking the Shelves (3)



Stacking the Shelves is a weekly feature hosted by Tynga's Reviews.  It is a great way to showcase any books received during the week.

Even though I am completely overwhelmed with books right now, I picked up a few more this week.  I need a week long vacation just to get caught up on reading!


From the Library:
Jeneration X by Jen Lancaster
Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare


From NetGalley:
Her Highness, the Traitor by Susan Higginbotham

What books did you pick up this week?

    I know what you mean about being overwhelmed by books. I have vowed not to go to NetGalley except to post reviews for books I already have until I have caught up. I do hope you enjoy the books you got. My new book posts are here and here. Happy reading!

    I have not read Clockwork Prince yet maybe I need to check it out. Seems like everyone but me has read it or are going to read it.
    Hope you enjoy all of your books.

    Her Highness the Traitor doesn't sound bad. I'm getting a bit tired of Tudor novels, but that one sounds like it might have something new and different to it. And the cover's nice, all things considered.

    I know exactly what you mean by being overwhelmed with books! But it still doesn't prevent you from buying more :D The temptation is too great :O
    Anyway, I haven't read ANY Cassie Clare yet, but I should really do that soon! Awesome blog, I love it so I'm a new follower :)

Mailbox Monday (49)

It's time for another Mailbox Monday post!  Once again I could not resist the cheap ebooks that Amazon and Barnes and Noble were promoting this week.  I really need to stop!  I already have more than I can read.  I also was able to spend a little time browsing at the library and I came home with a nice stack of books.  These days, I hardly ever get to spend time at the library by myself for more than a minute or two so it was wonderful to have time to just wander and see what I could find. Purchased (for kindle): The Color of Secrets by Lindsay Ashford The One I Was by Eliza Graham House of Bathory by Linda Lafferty   Purchased (for nook): One Night in Winter by Simon Sebag Montefiore  Becoming Queen Victoria by Kate Williams From the Library: The Messenger by Daniel Silva   The Ripper's Wife by Brandy Purdy Hotel Moscow by Talia Carner Brazen by Katherine Longshore What books did you get...

Review and Giveaway: "This Son of York" by Anne Easter Smith

Some of his actions and motives were misunderstood by his enemies to have been a deliberate usurpation of the throne, but thr...
