Stacking the Shelves

This weekly meme is hosted by Tynga's Reviews.

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!

I had me a WHOA week! Picked up a few books this week and most were ones I ordered from last weekend or preorders, but I love seeing them come in the mail! It's a special feeling! LOL!
The Isle of the Lost by Melissa De La Cruz
Ice Kissed by Amanda Hocking--a keeper copy!
Crimson Bound by Rosamund Hodge
Dust to Dust by Melissa Walker--now I can read Ashes to Ashes with this back to back...eventually!
The 100 by Kass Morgan
End of Days by Susan Ee--it shipped early! Yet I still can't read it right away. Sigh...


Then for review from the author, I received:

The Sandman by Erin Kellison


THANK YOU Erin!!


Then I received my metal bookmark and tattoo from Bloomsbury for preordering A Court of Thorns and Roses! I LOVE it! Though I will likely never wear the tattoo, because it's too pretty and I want to treasure it forever! LOL!

THANK YOU Bloomsbury!

Then I went to Hot Topic this weekend and they had their buy 1 get 1 half off sale and I can rarely resist buying something! LOL! I found this bracelet right away and adored it! It has a definition of the word "nerd": 

NERD
(nurd) n. Slang
1. One devoted to unusual interests relating topics of fiction or fantasy
2. One who is socially awkward

I liked it! It spoke to me! As I said in my Instagram pic! Though, I do demand a definition of the word "unusual" I think it should be something else. Because my vampires, werewolves, selkies, demons, witches, necromancers, shapeshifters, werecats, ghosts, princes and princesses, faeries, magicians, sorcerers, ghosts, and etc. aren't so much as unusual, but different! Or in my world, totally normal! ;) LOL!

And then of course there's the Little Mermaid one I bought! It has the dinglehopper, a seashell, a pearl, and a charm that says Part of Your World! They also had one with the same charms in a vial with a bit of sand, but it was longer. I tend to like necklaces shorter, because I am short myself! LOL!


So it was a pretty good week this week! And later today...the SARAH J. MAAS SIGNING!!! OH YEAH!!!!!!


What did you all get this week?

    Great haul, Jessica! There are several books on your shelves I'd like to read, too. Isle of the Lost looks good, and Ice Kiss has the most beautiful cover!

    Have a wonderful week ahead, happy reading.

    Hot topic is full of TLM stuff! I always leave disappointed because I want PatF stuff but no Hot Topic carries it. Rude.

    And End of Days!! I'll have to put my order in on payday :)
