STACKING THE SHELVES: January 2015


Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! Hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.


CHRISTMAS GIFTED BOOKS: 





I have the best friends and sibling! My friend Laura from Little Read Riding Hood book blog sent me signed hardcover 20 years anniversary edition of Outlander. The best gift ever :) Also, my dear brother gifted me The Exile and my reading buddy Nina from Buchjunkies blog sent me The Immortal Rules (THANKS!). Blood of Eden series has been on the top of my TBR for ages so I am excited to finally start reading it!


SURPRISE PACKAGE:


Couple of days ago I received this awesome package! I have to admit that cover is even prettier in printed than digital version. I can't wait to re-read this book since Bad Romeo was my favorite contemporary romance of 2014. Thank you Leisa Rayven!


DIGITAL REVIEW COPY:




I'm huge fan of Sylvain Reynard and his Gabriel's Inferno series so I'm super excited to read The Prince, author's first venture into paranormal genre! Thanks Penguin Group for ARC.


PURCHASED EBOOKS:

 I went a little over board and one-clicked several ebooks after reading amazing reviews by other bloggers. I was sold as soon as Nereyda at Mostly YA Book Obsessed blog mentioned slow-burn romance in her review of Princess of Thorns by Stacey Jay. I fell in love with Lily's Book Blog review of Amour Amour and I had to purchase the book immediately after reading it. I was super intrigued by Lisa's at Lost in Literature review of Addicted to You and once I found out that series was completed, I run to amazon to order first novel. Also, my friend Kayla from My Book Muse has been raving about Throne of Glass series for some time now. And based on her review of first book I finally decided to give it a try. Hopefully I will find the time to read all these awesome looking books soon :)

Ah, thank you Alise :) I am really looking forward to reading The Immortal Rules. I heard it is a little bit different from all other vampire books so I am very curious about it!
Ahhh, Throne of Glass is so good! I love that series! I hope you like Princess of Thorns. I'm not on the Outlander train (I've yet to try it) but that is a very awesome gift. Sadly, I wasn't a fan of Addicted To You but I'm sure you'll love it. Everyone does. Happy reading Lucia!

You were right, I am enjoying Addicted series. Once I finish it, I plan to FINALLY start Throne of Glass. I have very high expectations so hopefully I won't be disappointed!
OH, I absolutely LOVED Amour Amour! I definitely need to read more by Krista and Becca Ritchie! I can't wait to see what you think of it :)

I already started their Addicted series and I am hooked! It is really good. Hopefully I will find time for Amour Amour soon. Thanks for stopping by, Christy :)
AHHH so happy me and Lisa both convinced you to pick up K.B Ritchies books! YAY *happy dance* haha!
I can't wait to hear what you think of Amour Amour and the Addicted series as a whole. I promise you'll get addicted.....TERRIBLE OVERUSED PUN INTENDED.

To start K.B Ritchies books = best decision of 2015 so far :)
I am already finishing up Addicted #2 and I am hooked, I love the characters and writing!
I haven't read Outlander. I'm afraid it might have too much romance for me. Congrats on your surprise package! Princess of Thorns is good. I loved their banter! I can't wait to discuss it with you!

Outlander may have the most epic love story I have ever read, but it is not the sole focus of the book. I would call it historical, political, adventurous family saga. Honestly, it is hard to categorize it. But it is definitely my all time favorite series!
And I can't wait to read Princess of Thorns! It is loved by many so I hope to enjoy it too :)
Great haul! I really want to read Amour Amour and Bad Romeo :)

Bad Romeo *swoon* I love that book so much! Hope you will love it as well, Becca :)
That Outlander copy is GORGEOUS!!! I recently read it because I ADORED the TV show :) And the book was amazing! And I haven't read any of the Krista & Becca Ritchie books but I know they have great reviews, so they are on my TBR.
So id the Bad Romeo book, and that cover is beautiful :)
Great post!
