Stacking the Shelves/Showcase Sunday (6)

Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews.
Showcase Sunday is a meme hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea.
These memes are a replacement of The Story Siren's In My Mailbox.

Stacking the Shelves and Showcase Sunday make a place to showcase your new books,
whether you obtained them through the post or otherwise.

I received quite a few books for review this week, all of which look great! From the publishers, I received Emma Hearts LA (The cover is SO shiny!), My Family and Other Freaks, The Night Sky in My Head (This sounds really interesting, kind of like The Curious Incident of the dog...), Hades, Shattered Dreams (I love the cover of this one) and Johnny Delgado: Like Father, Like Son. I'd also like to give big thanks to Paige Dearth for Believe Like a Child and to Leah Spiegel for sending me Uninvited and Confiscated!

 I also made quite a few swaps this week! I received Fever, Firelight, Not That Kind of Girl, Give Up the Ghose, A Witch in Winter and As I Wake. Although I've already read it, I regretted swapping my copy of Prozac Nation so I swapped again and received another copy of it. I am still in two minds whether to read it or not, but it's there if I decide I want to. I also received The Hunt from the lovely Vickie @ ComaCalm!

 I received one previous order from Amazon this week and that was a hardback of Unlocked for only a couple of quid, which I was introduced to by Vicky @ Books, Biscuits and Tea. It's written in verse (which I love) so I'm sure I'll read it very quickly and that it'll be very good!

What did you get this week?

  6. Wow, that's an awesome haul!
    Emma Hearts LA looks like a companion to Jessie Hearts NY, that true? And I love the cover for Shattered Dreams, is that the same model as on the Maureen Johnson books?
    I just realised I haven't read a single book in your entire stack >.<

    Anyway, here are my Books & Love Letters: http://tinyurl.com/7c2c8kh

  23. That's a whole lot of books!! Firelight has been on my TBR for such a long time now, I seriously need to get to it sometime soon. Fever is pretty good, very very addicting, though! You'll want to set aside some time to read it, because you won't be able to put it down.

    Enjoy all those books! =)
