Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews. It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. And I have a HUGE haul this week. Well, it feels like it anyway. First, I want to share something that I came home to find sitting on my front porch on Tuesday: I […]
First thanks to Macmillan-Tor Forge and Netgalley for allowing me to read an egalley of this book of short stories. I am very grateful in this case because of how good the stories are. They remind me in a way of how good Stephen King’s short stories are. Some of the stories were really scary, […]

(AND) This week I’m participating in a Book Blast for this book, and so as part of the Cover Reveal, I thought I’d add this as my Waiting on Wednesday for this week. As always Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we spotlight upcoming releases that we’re eagerly awaiting. […]
This is the first book by Aprilynne Pike that I have read, and I must say I wasn’t disappointed at all! I got a copy of this at the RT Convention back in May of this year. I’ve actually not really been a fan of fairy or fae stories. Not that I mind when they […]
I’d seen these books on the teen shelves in the bookstore where I work for awhile, and always wondered. Then last December I went to the Scholastic Warehouse sale and got it for half price, which was a good deal. I finally got around to reading it this past week, and all I can say […]
Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews. So far so good with my goal of keeping up this summer! So, let’s see, this week I did okay. Got a couple books in the mail, approved for one from Netgalley, and two from my sister in NYC. From Netgalley: Just love that cover, and it sounds like […]
I actually received this book from the YA Book Exchange website. It came from Sri Lanka, so took a little longer than expected to arrive. But fortunately I got it in time to get it read before my e-galley of the final book in the trilogy, Awaken, expires. And you can check out my review […]

However, and though I have no problem with it, something that might be an issue for some people is that the […]
