Stacking The Shelves #31


Welcome to Stacking The Shelves! Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga Reviews and is a meme to share those books, both print and e-book, that have been added to your shelves in the last week/s.

It was a quieter week on the blog this week with only the one review being posted on monday and just a couple of other posts throughout the week. I spent most of the week either busy at work, reading or catching up on Marvel Agents of SHIELD. I am only just over a season behind now :-P

Whilst the beginning of the week in terms of new books, towards the end of the week I got notice of some tour stops I will be participating in over the coming weeks and the review titles that went with them.  take a look on the left to see some of the tours and events I will be participating in over the next couple of weeks.

I am also looking forward to Armchair BEA next week.  Who else is participating?  This will be my 3 or maybe fourth year being involved though I really need to get to work on my posts.  Let me known if you are participating and I will come by and visit during the week :-)

Reading wise, this week I read Saint Anything by Sarah Dessen ( see review here) and Son of Neptune (Heroes of Olympus #2) and I have been listening to The battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians #4).  It can be a little confusing at times but it still works as I actually read the entire first Percy jackson series a couple of years so its kind of a refresher and I am really enjoying the Heroes of Olympus series.  So much so that I have already reserved books 3 and 4 at the library. Who else is excited about The Sword of Summer (Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard #1) coming out in October???

 I also just started on Nowhere But Here (Thunder Road #1) by Katie McGarry this morning. Really enjoying it so far.  Almost didn't want to put it down to finish this post :-P  Stay tuned for the review this week!

Even my library finds this week are actually earlier books in the series for a couple of the ARCS I received to review.

What is on your reading list this week?



E-Arcs (Bookouture via Netgally)



I read the first two books in this series earlier this year and reviewed the first book here in late February.  This is actually the fifth and final book in the series and I cannot wait to see what happens

Night School: EndGame by C J Daugherty







Broken. Scattered. But not defeated.

The spy is gone but the cost has been high - the rebels at Cimmeria Academy have lost their leader and Carter West is missing. Nathaniel can taste victory. But Allie and the other survivors aren't done yet. First they have to get Carter back. Then they plan to make Nathaniel pay.

One way or another - the game must end.

Endgame is the thrilling fifth and final book in the internationally bestselling Night School series.




E-Arcs for Blog Tours/Blitzes

Got confirmation of my stops for a few Blog tours and Blitzes this week - two of them also have already provided the review copy i will be reviewing for my stops.  Check out the Blog Tiour banners on the left for more info on these tours



The Cinderella Moment by Jennifer Kloester 


A love of fashion.

A couture competition.

A once-in-a-lifetime chance . . .

Angel Moncoeur has always wanted to be a fashion designer, but without money or connections, it's going to be a challenge. When an opportunity to leave her home in New York and head to Paris appears, Angel grabs it – even if it means masquerading as her best friend Lily. That can't be too hard, can it?

But faking things doesn't come easy for Angel, so when she falls in love with her very own Prince Charming and he thinks she's someone else, things start to get complicated.

Angel needs to stop her secrets unravelling if she wants to live happily ever after . . .

From exciting talent Jennifer Kloester comes this fabulous story about high society, mistaken identity, love, betrayal, friendship – and great clothes.

Finding Mr Darcy: High School Edition by Erin Butler



Sixteen-year-old Liza Johnson takes fangirl to a whole new level of crazy when she decides to take dating advice from her literary hero: Jane Austen.

With the help of her best friends, Liza sheds her ancient-speak and complete Austen wardrobe for something a bit more modern in an attempt at finding her very own Mr. Darcy.

Enter Will, the new kid and Liza's Darcy incarnate. Add her BFF's ex to mix and the sexy Brit who kisses with an accent, and Liza is in trouble.

So, what's a girl to do? Without her mom to go to relationship advice, Liza turns to the only person she can truly trust with matters of the heart via her mother's copy of COMPLETED WORKS OF JANE AUSTEN.

It's too bad Austen's heroines have never played Spin the Bottle or Seven Minutes in Heaven. Liza's determined to find her true Austen-esque happy ending, but if she can't trust herself instead of books, she just might end up in her own tragic love story.

  8. I still need to read Snow Like Ashes. The Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus series are really great. I tried reading The Kane Chronicles, but didn't care for it as much. Never read past the first book. YES! Like you I'm excited for Riordan's newest series.
