Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews. It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. Here’s what I got this past week. Books won: The first one I won from Bookhounds in the September is for Sequels Giveaway Hop that I co-hosted earlier this month. I don’t normally […]
Thanks to Kathy at I Am a Reader, and Mary at Bookhounds for hosting this blog hop. This year I don’t know that I’m going to get a display up in my library. You see I had ordered the stuff from ALA for the week, but because of all the red tape and how […]
I won this book a while back, but again, it was before I started marking the books so I could remember when I reviewed them where they came from. So whoever I got this from, thanks!! It has been 2 years though since I read the 2nd book in the series, Fever, so of course […]

I have to first say thanks to Sourcebooks Fire for allowing me to read an e-galley of this. I even was approved on both Netgalley and Edelweiss. I guess I didn’t realize that I’d asked at both sites, but I did. And I’m glad I did, because I really enjoyed it. The main character, our […]
