Stacking the Shelves


It's been a while since I've done a post and I've accumulated quite a few books recently.

Review books:

If I Stay by Gayle Forman - I'm so excited to read one of Forman's novel as I've heard so much about her writing. I also have to make sure I read this as I've heard there's going to be a movie!!!

Thank you Random House for giving me this to review!














Apple and Rain by Sarah Crossan - I haven't read many reviews on this so I'm not really sure what to expect but I have seen quite a few Aussie bloggers receive it as well.

Searching for Sky by Jillian Cantor

Flirty Dancing by Jenny McLachlan - I'm excited to read this! It's sounds like a cute novel which will be filled with humour.




I Won:

Spark by Rachael Craw - I'm really excited to read this (partly because I won it at a giveaway on Joy's blog) because I've read some good reviews - but not too many - so I don't have any expectation. Also look at the cover! It's so pretty!!!















PTA Live

At the start of PTA Live, the whole audience got to choose out of 3 books they could take home .(For FREE!!)

The Choices were:
Half Bad by Sally Green
The Cinderella Moment by Jennifer Kloester
Popular: Vintage Wisdom for a Modern Geek by Maya Van Wagenen

I also got the chance to by Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell at a discounted price of $13.50!!!! I'm so excited to read this as basically everyone's labelling it as every fangirls bible. (Yes I've literally heard people take it that far) I'm a little worried that the hype will ruin it for me.

So these are the books I've gotten lately. What's new on your shelf?

  5. FANGIRL, FANGIRL, FANGIRL. I WANT TO READ THIS ONE SO BAD. But, at the same time, I'm also scared the hype will ruin it for me. It happens all the time. I just think the story rather bland because I was expecting SO much. :(

    Great haul!! :D

  8. Wow, that's so amazing that you got to pick 3 free books at PTA Live! We pretty much only got 1 (Popular, which was brilliant). I hope you enjoy Spark and Fangirl, I really liked both of them.

  9. I hope you like If I Stay! I really enjoyed it myself and would definitely recommend it! Happy reading, and with Fangirl, too, which I haven't read yet but am super excited to, and hopefully soon. I hope all the attention it's getting doesn't affect how you feel about it. x
