Stacking The Shelves is all about the books we are adding to our shelves each week, sharing with you our excitement for our newest titles and maybe have you discover a new book in the process!
Had a pretty moderate week, which is just fine. Added 2 books to the TBR mountain, already reading one! Hoping the other is good, it sounded intriguing, but a quick check online showed mixed reviews.
The Taking by Kimberly Derting
Nearly Gone by Elle Cosimano
I also got some swag goodies: stickers, book plate and signed bookmark for The Taking from Kimberly!
Thanks Kimberly!!
Then while I didn't add any more from my luncheon event last weekend, I did pickup a few bookish things I wanted to share here as well!
From left to right: a Scrabble tile necklace saying: Book Nerd
a wooden sign that says: Book Junie
More Hot Topic items: a necklace that shows the stained glass window of the rose that the Enchantress held
a POP figurine of Dean Winchester!
And that was my haul this week! What did you get?
The covers for The Taking and Nearly Gone are so pretty, haha ;) Can't wait to see what you thought of them! And OHMYGOSHYOUHAVEADEANFIGURINE. Totally turning green with envy over here. :P
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to read Nearly Gone! I didn't like The Taking, but I hope you do! :D

IFB Stack!
I don't know why, but Nearly Gone really appeals to me - maybe it's because of the numbers used to form the title? I hope you'll enjoy your new books, Jessica :) Happy reading.

The Taking was good, I thought the romance was sweet and the plot was slow building. Love the necklace!

ReplyDeleteI have both of these on my tbr. The Taking sounds really good. I wasn't aware that it was getting such mixed reviews. I'm interested in what you think about Nearly Gone because it sounds like something I might really like.
