Stacking the Shelves


To support my fellow Canadian bloggers I have decided to participate in Stacking the Shelves created by Tygna over at Tygna's Reviews. As Tygna writes, "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!" 


Bought***
-"Radiant Shadows" by Melissa Marr (I couldn't pass this up with it only being $5.99!)
-"Forgiven" by Jana Oliver (I read this the other day and my review will be going up in August or September)
-"If I Stay" and "Where She Went" by Gayle Forman (After feeling like I was the last person on earth to read this book I decided to get a copy. Literally 5 minutes after finishing this I ran out and bought the second book in the series, "Where She Went", which I then also devoured in a few hours. My reviews of these will also be going up sometime in August or September) 

For Review 
-"The Lost Girl" by Sangu Mandanna 

***Last week I graduated with my B.A. and my family ended up throwing me a surprise party! They invited a ton of friends and family- including Ashley over at Book Labyrinth- and I received a few Chapters gift cards which I used to buy the books in this weeks STS. So special thanks to all of those people who support my book buying addiction! ;)

And just for funsies here is a pic of my sister and I at my convocation. Yes my diploma is HUGE. And I'll have another one next year after I finish my Masters in Library and Information Sciences(!!!) which I start in September (which I chose so that I can basically be surrounded in books for the rest of my life ;) ).

  8. Oooh, you'll have to tell me what you thought of If I Stay/Where She Went!

    Chapters has some crazy good deals with their bargain books, especially the one by Masonville... too bad most of the ones that I would want I already own. =b

  11. I just read If I Stay a few months ago and I really enjoyed it. I actually just picked up Where She Went today and I'm a little scared to read it because of the synopsis. I'm hoping it's going to be good. I hope you enjoy everything you got this week. Here's my IMM!

    Second, I adore your book haul! I read and reviewed If I Stay and Where She Went and am SO glad to hear that you loved them. They were by far two of the best books I've ever read :-) Can't wait to read your reviews!

Thanks so much for taking the time to comment! I really appreciate it!

Though I appreciate awards I have decided to make my blog an "award-free zone". Unfortunately I do not have the time to hold up my end of award-giving. But again, I appreciate you thinking of me!
