Several reviews to write, and a few promo posts. On Monday I have to mail out my The Broke and the Bookish Secret Santa Gift. I’m cutting it really close, but it has to do with being broke! It’s the last week of school before my Christmas break. Should be a mostly easy week, but it will be long!
Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.
It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. So I had a pretty good book haul this week. but it seems like the mail all comes on one day, and then the rest of the week I get none. Sure wish the post office could spread it out!
Physical Books:
The top 5 books I won from Two Chicks on Books Fantastic Fives giveaway last month. Some great ARCs! Although one or two may not be ones I will read, so they may show up for trade. Defiance, The Eternal City, and Nightfall all came from a book trading group on Facebook. Winter was part of the giveaway I told you about last week from Jessica at A Great Read. Teardrop and Alive came from booksfortrade on Twitter.
E-galleys:
Very excited to get approved for this on Netgalley!

The first one was from Amazon, the 2nd from Barnes and Noble, the third I won in a contest.
Those are my hauls for the week! What did you add to your shelf!
I legit just finished Shallow Graves, I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it! đŸ™‚ I'm also really curious about your thoughts on Nightfall.
Have a lovely week!
I'm so excited to get to it. Hopefully over Christmas break! And Nightfall, not sure when I'll get to it, but I've heard such great things! Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your break. Looks like you got a great stack to read.
I know, so many books! And hoping to get a lot read on my break! Thanks for visiting!
That's a tall stack of books. LOL Mine comes that way sometimes. My postman suggested I get a larger mail box. I asked him if he could suggest it to Santa! We both laughed. Have a great break and enjoy the holidays:)
My Sunday Post – http://fuonlyknew.com/2015/12/13/whats-new-on-my-bookshelf-139-and-the-sunday-post/
Ah, that's an awesome postman! I have all my stuff delivered to my work address because I had a few things disappear from my house. So I don't ever get to see our postman. Thanks for stopping by!
Niceee, the new Madow book! I passed on the opportunity to review it, but I may binge-read the series when all are published. I hope you enjoy all of your new books!
Have a fabulous week, Lisa. đŸ™‚
Check out my STS post!
I am excited for another paranormal type read from her! Thanks for visiting!
HAHAH that's a great haul! And I see Winter đŸ˜€ Enjoy your winter break (see what I did there? hehehe)
Maryam @ Once Upon A Story
I've got to hurry up and read Scarlett, and I got Cress last night at the Scholastic Warehouse sale, so now I can read straight through! Thanks for stopping by!
My postman has to work hard all year round with all the Amazon buying I do! Still I don't spend my money on anything else so that's ok!
Most of the time I get packages at my work, to make sure I get them. It'd just be nice to get them once a day instead of all on one day. Thanks for visiting!
WOW! Awesome haul! There are quite a few in there I really want to read. I'm hoping to get to Wandering Star and Shallow Graves soon. I hope you enjoy them all! Happy reading!
Michelle @ Michelle's Minions
I've still got to read Zodiac, probably will wait till January to use it as part of my challenge. Thanks for stopping by!
And I signed up for your Challenge, and in fact have my books organized into which Challenges they will go in!! Thanks for the Challenge!
Yay! And that's a great idea to organize them, I might do that as well! Thanks for joining in to my challenge!
Darkness Knows Me sounds so creepy! Fantastic haul and wins! Hope your week is amazing
That's what I thought as well! Thanks so much for stopping by!
Darkness Knows Me looks very intriguing guessing by the cover. Hope you enjoy all of them. đŸ™‚
