Stacking the Shelves: The "I'm A Lame STSer" Edition

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!" 

I may be the most lame STSer ever- this is my first since the book-blogger meet-up in November. Surprisingly not a single one of these books came from Christmas!

Stacking the Shelves: The Sequel Edition

As Tygna, the creator of this new feature (which was inspired by The Story Siren's IMM), 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

• "Spell Bound"by Rachel Hawkins 

• "The Game of Thrones" Box Set by G.R.R. Martin (Believe it or not but Amazon.ca/.com and Chapters.ca has this box set on sale for $20 for the first 4 books! It's an amazing deal considering if you were to buy the books individually you would pay at least $10/piece!)

• "City of Lost Souls" by Cassie Clare (my review of this will be going up on the blog tomorrow)

• "Insurgent" by Veronica Roth (my review of this will be going up on the blog on Thursday or Friday)

• "Destined" by Aprilynne Pike (I actually reviewed this a few weeks back, I had to buy myself a physical copy of it to complete the series) 

• "Shine" by Jeri-Smith Ready (same with "Destined", I had to buy this to complete the series- hopefully I can read this in the next couple of weeks)

Won

• "The Calling" by Kelley Armstrong (Thanks to HarperCollins!)

Stacking the Shelves: The Amanda Hocking Edition

As Tygna, the creator of this new feature, 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!" It is inspired  by IMM by The Story Siren.

For Review

• "Torn" by Amanda Hocking (Silly me, I thought that this was the first book in the series- it's not, it's the second, so I will have to get myself a copy of the first before I read this) (Thanks to Raincoast Books!)

• "Wake" ARC by Amanda Hocking (Thanks to Raincoast Books!)

• "Late Rite" ARC by Lisa Desrochers (I reviewed this on the blog on Friday) (Thanks to Raincoast Books!)

• "Cold Fury" by T.M. Goeglen (Thanks to Razorbill!)

Won

• "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" by Seth Grahame-Smith (Thanks to Hachette Canada)

Stacking the Shelves: The Simon & Schuster Edition

This week instead of participating in IMM I thought that I would give Tynga over at Tygna's Reviews new feature Stacking the Shelves a go! 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

• "The Last Echo" by Kimberly Derting

Won

• "Unholy Night" by Seth-Grahame-Smith (Thanks to Hachette Canada)

For Review (I almost fell over when I got these ARCs this week- big thanks goes out to Simon & Schuster Canada!)

• "Between the Lines" ARC by Jodi Picoult

• "Surrender" ARC by Elana Johnson (I must admit that I have yet to read "Possess", even though its been on my wishlist FOREVER, so this will give me an excuse to buy it!)

• "Envy" ARC by Elizabeth Miles (same with "Possess"- must buy "Fury"!)

• "The Unnaturalists" by Tiffany Trent (I must also admit that I had never heard of this book prior to having received it, but it sounds AMAZING- right up my alley- I really want to start reading it ASAP, but I think that I better hold out until August when it is released)

What did you get this week to add to your shelves?
