Welcome to my first ever Stacking the Shelves post! It's a feature hosted by Tynga's Reviews. I'm excited to be able to do book hauls again, which is something I hadn't been doing in a while. It's a great way to let you guys in on what's in my reading pile, and also a great way to call attention to books old and new. Without further ado, here's my first STS vlog!

YOUR TURN - What books did you get this week? What do you have on your TBR this week?
Alexa, you're absolutely adorable! I love watching vlogs so I'm really happy you're trying to do more videos this year :) Book-wise, I got Broken Hearts a couple of weeks ago and did you know it's actually Morgan Matson writing as Katie Finn?! I'm so excited for that. And I'm really curious about Second Star. I'm dying to read Wonder and The Girl of Fire and Thorns! Awesome haul this week, Alexa! Happy reading :)
ReplyDeleteYAY for Grave Mercy!!! I'm really enjoying it so far but it WAS intimidating cuz its GIANT. :-X
ReplyDeleteYay for Fire and Thorns and for Grave Mercy!!! I love the Fire and Thorns series so much. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on that series. And Grave Mercy is definitely intimidating but it didn't feel long at all when I read it because it was just so good! And I'd never heard of Second Star until you mentioned it here, but definitely added it to my TBR list. Sounds awesome. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteJust subscribed to your YouTube chanel :)
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to read Beauty so I can't wait to hear what you think!
Awww, I can't watch your vlog because I'm at work. But I LOVE Wonder! It's such a wonderful middle-grade novel, and it's also very popular at my library. It's rarely checked in. I hope you like it.
ReplyDeleteI really need to read Grave Mercy & Dark Triumph. Everyone says they're wonderful, but I haven't found time for them yet.
I hope you enjoy all your goodies!!! Happy reading, Alexa!
Nice haul! Enjoy your reads :)

ReplyDeleteYes, Chaos of the stars has such a pretty cover!
Happy reading :D
YAY for a VLOG, also love your new blog format! Subscribing to your youtube channel ASAP!
ReplyDeleteBroken Hearts, Fences & Other Things to Mend looks great!! Love that it's kind of a Morgan Matson book since Katie Finn is her pseudonym. LOVE her books. :) Wonder is AWESOME! One of my favourites! And I love the Robin LaFevers books! Grave Mercy is great, but I love, love, LOVED Dark Triumph! I hope you enjoy it! :)
ReplyDeleteGrave Mercy and Dark Triumph!! These were two of my favorite books I read in 2013 and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did :)
ReplyDeleteI've been really excited about Broken Hearts since I found out it was Morgan Matson. I l o v e Morgan, so I hope this book will be great as well. I've been wanting to read Wonder for a while now, and I hope you enjoy it. It sounds like it could be really beautiful and really heartbreaking, which are things I like in books. And I'm excited for our readalong!! :)
ReplyDeleteI own fire and thorns but have not read! Hoping to join you and judith as you guys read! :)
