Stacking the Shelves--The Birthday Extravaganza

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!

It's the Birthday palooza haul!!! What a week it was too!! I got to have my Birthday off as a "gift" from my work. And it was a paid day too! So yay!! Got lots of goodies for my birthday and just regular things during the week too, plus two trades came in and mine were sent off and should be arriving tomorrow and already arrived as far as tracking goes!

So let's break things down! Here's what I bought this week:

 Crystal Kingdom by Morgan Rhodes

Forever, Again by Victoria Laurie

The Witch's Halloween Hero by Kristen Painter--already read and reviewed!

Obsidian Blade by Morgan Rhodes--two words. MORE. MAGNUS!

Scooby Doo Apocalypse Issue #8 by Jim DeMatteis & Keith Giffen, Ill. by Howard Porter, Dale Eaglesham, & Ron Wagner--No, I haven't started this comic series yet! I need to though!!

Heartless by Marissa Meyer--THE OWLCRATE SPECIAL EDITION COPY!! I found out that Owlcrate had a few extras of these pretties, so I immediately bought one!! It's gorgeous! I had told myself to forget about this beauty, it just wasn't meant to be and then BAM! I see the notice and I quickly and successfully bought a copy!!

For review I received:

The Turn by Kim Harrison (ARC)--More Hollows?! Yes please!! It's a prequel to one of my very favorite series!!! SQUEE!

Two trades that I made this week also arrived, and just as I was trying to take a picture of the second, my camera battery died. Blah! Luckily I found a picture of it on Goodreads, so it will have to do!

Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton (ARC)--original cover! I loooved this cover and was a tad sad it was changed, but the new one is still just as nice, but I, again, decided I wanted to have the original!

Dream a Little Dream by Kerstin Gier (ARC)--original cover! I STILL need to read this one but I always thought this cover was so cool!!

Then after a few mishaps, I finally received my Nemesis preorder gift from Anna Banks:
