Stacking the Shelves [28]

Stacking The Shelves, hosted by Tynga’s Reviews, is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!

This week, I bought tons of books. I don’t know whether to cry for my wallet or be happy I got such amazing books.

Bought:
Sweet Peril (The Sweet Trilogy #2) by Wendy Higgins
Natural Born Angel (Immortal City #2) by Scott Speer
The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden #1) by Julie Kagawa
Mystic (The Soul Seekers #3) by Alyson Noel
Game (Jasper Dent #2) by Barry Lyga
Nameless (Tales of Beauty & Madness #1) by Lili St. Crow
Taken (Taken #1) by Erin Bowman

IMG_1028For the millionth time, I love Strandbooks. This week, I got $120 worth of books for only $60, and all except two of them were not released yet. I can’t wait to read them all!

That’s all for this week! What books did you guys get?

    Great haul!! I’m so jelous :X
    I LOVED The Immortal Rules!! It is really action-packed, nothing like Twilight or other typical vampires books. I’m sure you’ll love it!!
    I really want to read Taken, too!
    I’m a new follower via GFC and Bloglovin. Your blog is AMAZING and I’m really glad I’ve found it! :D
    Be sure to stop by my STS too (:

      Yeah, I got Sweet Peril three weeks early. Hopefully I’ll like Taken too, but I’ve heard so many mixed reviews about it.

    OMG you got Sweet Peril o.O I’ve been wanting it for about a year!!! I hope I can read it vicariously through your review soon :P
    But why do they have books that aren’t even out yet? o.O
    I’m very curious about Nameless, too! And Immortal Rules is amazing :)
    You have some fantastic reading ahead of you ^^

      The bookstore I go to sometimes has books released up to a month early. That’s how I got Everbound 3 weeks early and again Sweet Peril 3 weeks early. They even have Invisibility a month early. o.o
      And yep Carmen, but hopefully I have the time to read them all! (:

    Thanks for dropping by my STS, Kelly! I’m reading Taken now and I like it so far. I haven’t read the first books of your haul but these series are in my i-want-to-read-so-bad list. Hee. Happy reading!

    Yay! Sweet Peril. :) I’m starting that one now, and I’m sure I’ll fly though it if I love it as much as Sweet Evil. I also got Taken this week, so I’m interested in what that’ll be like. Happy reading!

    I’m so jealous right now. You got GAME and SWEET PERIL. Been waiting a long time for those books! I’m still thinking if I should get the Immortal Rules though. Enjoy your lovelies! It’s been a while since I’ve commented on your blog. Been really busy. But I’m back now.

      Yeah, I can’t wait to read them both! But there are also so many other books I have to read first. ):
      You should definitely buy The Immortal Rules, I read it and it is AWESOME. Seriously, it’s one of the best vampire books I’ve ever read.
      And welcome back! :D
