Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews. It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. And this week, well let me say that earlier this week, I had a moment like the new iPhone 6 commercial where the women all scream so high pitched they make the glass break. Finally, finally, I got my ARC of Blue Lily, Lily Blue.
I got it at work, that’s where almost always have things shipped to me anymore because I know they will actually arrive. And it was during a very busy time in the library, and there was no one really to share my excitement with, so I was doing the above inside my head. If you’ve seen my last few STS posts, you know how badly I wanted this book.
E-galleys:

The first one was from Netgalley, the middle was from Edelweiss. The third one I was so excited to see that I clicked request before I realized it was just the first 5 chapters in a sampler. I don't like to read samplers. I like to wait and read the whole thing at once. Don't know if there will be a full blown e-galley available, or any ARCs, as this is the final book in a trilogy, and often they don't do them for that one. So I have it, but I probably won't read it. Will wait till I can get the whole thing. Free Nook Books:

They both sounded good, and as I said, free. I really think I need to come up with a challenge for next year to read some of these free books I've downloaded. If you know of anyone that already hosts something like this, something different than just a TBR challenge, let me know!
So many books, that's great! I saw these little ones on NG and I hope you'll like them. Happy reading!
Thanks! I'm excited for them as well.
I didn't realize they were sending out arcs of Blu Lily, Lily Blue. I totally understand why you are very excited. I won my copy from Maggie. I squealed too, but mine was out loud. I got Dear Rock star too. I really need to read more of my freebies.
I didn't think they were either, other than the ones that Maggie had. But when I was not approved for the egalley on Netgalley, I emailed and asked for it. And they sent it. Thanks for visiting!
Lucky you!! I finally got around to reading The Dream Thieves last week and now I'm so excited for Blue Lily, Lily Blue!
I know! I can't wait to read it! Thanks for stopping by!
I hadn't even heard of most of these, I feel pretty disappointed when I notice a book up on Netgalley and then it ends up being a chapter sampler, because I don't like reading samplers either 🙁

Now I hate that I requested it because I probably won't read it. 🙁 Thanks for visiting!
OH MY GOD BLUE LILY LILY BLUE!!! I would have shared your excitement! HAHA. I'm so excited for it. Especially sing Stiefvater is coming two weeks after the release so i'm definitely getting it signed!

She's supposed to be coming to my town in November as well! I will definitely be going to see her and get it autographed! Thanks for visiting!
Yeah I stared at Ensnared for like five minutes trying to debate if I wanted to get it. I decided that I couldn't handle the tease (hence why I'm not reading Orphan Queen…at least not yet).
I like all these fantasy retellings, I'll have to make my way over to BN.com.

Yeah, now I feel bad that I've requested it. Hope they don't get upset when I don't really review it. Guess I could post why I'm not reviewing it in the space provided on Netgalley. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope all the retellings are good, they were free!
Fun books! I download a lot of free books too. Sometimes I read them. You just never know what you're going to get with a free book!
Yeah, now I must figure out a challenge for next year, and see if I get anyone to join in! Otherwise they may sit on my Nook forever, and ever, and ever, and ever….
So much awesomeness here! Happy reading and I hope you’ll enjoy them all! 🙂

I know! For a kind of slow week, it sure was an awesome one!
You lucky duck! I hope you enjoy Blue Lily, Lily Blue! And it's a shame about Ensnared! I really don't like reading chapter samplers either and I can understand you're excitement at first when seeing the book (I have a bit of an obsession with the series).
I hope you enjoy all your books!
Yeah. Love that series! Finally got to meet the author at BEA this summer and it was awesome! Thanks for stopping by!
Yay for Blue Lily, Lily Blue! <3 I think I've read about it somewhere and it does sound totally awesome. 🙂 Bummer that Ensnared is only a sample – hope they'll put the full ARC soon! Unlovely has such lovely cover – totally opposite of the title haha.
Happy reading! 🙂
I'm hoping for a full length e-galley as well! Thanks for stopping by!
hahaha YES the Dean gif ♥ and OMG YAY on getting Blue Lily, Lily Blue 😀 I was unfortunately denied a review copy but as soon as that bad boy hits the shelves, I am ON IT. You got a LOT of amazing looking books here, especially Ensnared and Unmarked! Happy reading ^^
I could sit and look at Supernatural gifs all day!! I was denied the review copy on Netgalley but emailed and basically begged them to either reconsider or send me an ARC. And I was rewarded! Thanks for visiting!
YAY BLUE LILY, LILY BLUE! I got an egalley last week and screamed in excitement. It's gonna be so goooooood! I don't read samplers either. It just gets you all excited for something you can't completely read!
I hope you've having a wonderful week!

I know, I can't wait to read it! I've got 2 books ahead of it, because of review/publishing dates. But then it will be devoured! Thanks for visiting!
