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!
Well, this week wasn't as eventful or wonderful as last week, but that's okay! I don't need to make the TBR mountain bigger every week! But I didn't come out completely empty handed!
Here's what I got...I received 2 more books from my Abe Books order, only 1 more to go!
Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder--the UK YA edition! Sadly this "very good" book came to me looking more like a "fine" or "okay". I REALLY wish these booksellers would actually be booklovers, because booklovers know how to accurately describe a used book. My cover was more bent than described. The spine way more worn than stated. The pages are still great and since this was just for collector's purposes I'm trying not to be too upset about it. But still.
Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder--the UK adult edition! Yes...I have a bit of a problem with buying multiple copies of Maria's books. But I can't help it. We all have that 1 or 2 or more author where we buy their books in nearly every edition! Maria is one of mine! Thankfully this one was "very good" as described. The cover is much better condition than the other.
Then for review from the publisher I received:
Grave Visions by Kalayna Price--so excited for this one! Been waiting years for it to release!
THANK YOU Roc!!
And then I finally received my set of bookmarks I ordered from Happy Hello Art! on Etsy!
Naturally, I got Daemon and Katy!
And that was my week! Next week is sure to have more books because it's a release day for me! LOL! Though I did have some books come out this week, one at least, but it hasn't arrived yet! Gotta keep waiting I guess! Or camp out at the post office and ask them to just hand it over once it comes in! ;)
I am in love with Maria's books and the different covers so I feel ashamed to only own Shadow Study in paperback O.O if there was a series to get all the editions for, it would be Study so I definitely want to start collecting!
ReplyDeleteAlso those bookmarks are just too cute! I got some this week as well and love them so much <3
Enchanted by YA
Great books! I've always been curious about Maria V. Snyder's Study books, maybe I should give them a try!

I hate when books don't come as described. That makes me sad. I hope you love all your new books.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
Awesome! I actually just finished listening to the audio of Poison Study and I loved it! I can see why everyone is obsessed with this series. I had to go ahead and buy the next two in the series!
ReplyDeleteChristina @ Books & Prejudice
Awesome haul! I hope you love them.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
The only book I have multiple covers of is Succubus Blues :)
ReplyDeleteI have one of those Price books but haven't read it yet.
Enjoy your new books!
Those bookmarks are absolutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteOh, your bookmarks are adorable!! Nice editions of Poison Study, Hope you have another good week!!
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so jealous about Grave Visions!!!! I want it! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteHave fun with Grave Visions, Jessica! :)
ReplyDeleteI love those editions of the Study books! I have at least 3 different editions myself (I think I have 4 Poison Study). I totally understand. I didn't get too many books over the past few weeks (not counting my Book Outlet order), but I know that's going to change since all the new 2016 books are going to start releasing soon. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Grave Visions sounds good, I hope you enjoy. Have a great upcoming week.
ReplyDeleteAwww, Daemon and Katy! So cute. I need to read a Snyder book/series at some point. I hope you enjoy all of your new books!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog! Have a wonderful week. :)
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
One day I'll finally read Snyder's series. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteLooks great. I hope you enjoy.
ReplyDeletePoison Study looks awesome! New to me.
ReplyDeleteI love those editions of Poison Study - too bad the condition of the one wasn't up to par. That's always the hard thing about used books.
ReplyDeleteNicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction
Wow! You must REALLY love Poison Study! Haha! I guess it might be time for me to check that one out...
ReplyDeleteHere's my Weekly Recap!
Awesome Haul! Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteAparajita @Le' Grande Codex
Both these books are new to me but I hope you enjoy reading them. Absolutely loved the bookmarks. They are so cute! :)
ReplyDelete-Njkinny @Njkinny's World of Books & Stuff
I hope you'll leave a comment to the seller, Jessica! It's just not acceptable to pretend the book is in excellent shape when it isn't!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week and happy reading.

I love Poison study! I'm so sorry your copy didn't come looking as nicely as you''d hoped. I'm The same way. I like having the books on my bookshelf look pretty. This is probably why I eventually stopped trying to buy used books. Now I stick to new books only. I buy less, but I buy perfect versions.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week!

I love those Poison Study covers... they look great!!
ReplyDeleteTry leggings in black or brown. A pair of shoes in the selected legging color. You should add a brown leather or cloth bag and wooden and/or gold jewelry.
