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!
I got a huge surprise this week. On another note, this is the 50th Stacking the Shelves post I’ve done! :D
Bought:
Origin (Lux #4) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Antigoddess (Goddess War #1) by Kendare Blake
Rose Under Fire by Elizabeth Wein
Spark (Elemental #2) by Brigid Kemmerer
I ordered a copy of Origin a long time ago and it finally arrived. Thank goodness, I was getting worried.
I bought both Antigoddess and Rose Under Fire from Amazon, which were both on sale for 40% off.
As for Spark, I bought it from the Barnes & Noble bargain bin for $4. I mean, I thought Storm was okay but not that good, so why not give Spark a chance?
In My Mailbox:
Twinmaker by Sean Williams
Hideous Love by Stephanie Hemphill
Deception (Defiance #2) by C.J. Redwine
The Chaos of Stars by Kiersten White
A Radiant Sky (A Beautiful Dark #3) by Jocelyn Davis
3:59 by Gretchen McNeil
HarperCollins surprised me with 6 ARCs this week! I literally could not believe my eyes when I saw it on my doorstep because I never requested anything from them. Thank you so much HarperCollins! <3
That’s all for this week! What books did you guys get?
All very popular books you bought that I really need in my life as well! Everyone’s been getting heaps of ARCs from HarperCollns. You lucky Americans! I hope you enjoy them all and I can’t wait to see your reviews!

Aww, I take it as you live outside the US? That sucks. D:
And popular books? Which ones are popular? o:
Kelly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves [50]
Those books are perfect. And, omg? Is that Antigoddess? I’ve been dying to read and get my hands on it since her other series, Anna Dressed in Blood, was just amazing! Can’t wait to read about what you think of those books! :-)
Een recently posted…Stacking the Shelves (1)
Yes, that’s Antigoddess. And I just love Anna Dressed in Blood; it is so like Supernatural that I love it. :D<3

Wow, that Harper Collins package is amazing! I’d love to read Twinmaker :)
I also need to get Antigoddess some time soon! I love Kendare Blake’s other books. Happy reading, Kelly!

My other friends want to read Twinmaker too. I hope it doesn’t disappoint me though. o:

3:59 also sounds unique too. I hope it lives up to my expectations! (:
Kelly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves [50]
The Chaos of Stars and 3:59 both sound really good! I also really want to read both Code Name Verity and Rose Under Fire soon. Enjoy your books :)
Montana @ The Book Belles recently posted…Stacking the Shelves (38/Emily Edition Part 2)
The Chaos of Stars and 3:59 looks amazing too! :D
I still have to read both Code Name Verity and Rose Under Fire. >___< Kelly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves [50]
Sooo lucky with the HarperCollins ARCs. So jealous. I’ve been dying to read Antigoddess but I haven’t had the chance to yet. Hope you enjoy your haul!
Karla recently posted…Stacking the Shelves (55)
Don’t be jealous, that could be you one day too! (:
I hope we’ll both enjoy Antigoddess once we have time to read it!
Kelly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves [50]
Great haul this week Kelly :D. So many great books!!! I really need to get a copy of Origin so I can read it already! I’ve heard it’s even better than Opal. Which was amazing!!
Oh my gosh!! Twinmaker looks so good!! And the cover is gorgeous! Hope you like all of your new books :D
Kimberly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves (57)
I’ve never read Opal or Origin yet, so I wouldn’t know. :P
Yeah, Twinmaker looks so good, but I hope it’s as good as it looks!
Kelly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves [50]
POSITIVELY DROOLING RIGHT NOW, KELLY. I want to read Antigoddess and all of those pretty ARCs!! The Chaos of Stars was really enjoyable :) Happy reading!!
Jen recently posted…Where the Stars Still Shine by Trish Doller | Book Looks
I’m drooling now too – I can’t wait to devour them all! Kelly hungry. ;D
Yay, I’m glad to hear that The Chaos of Stars was really enjoyable. I’ve been seeing TONS of mixed reviews on that one, so I’m a bit worried.
Kelly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves [50]
Girl, HarperCollins is good to you :D I can’t wait to read Hideous Love! Have a lovely week!
Happy reading

I’ve heard that Chaos of Stars is a great book and 3:95 looks really good!
Sydney @ Pika Pages recently posted…Book World Update: 9/14/13
And that’s why they both are my top two reads as of now. ;D
Kelly recently posted…Stacking the Shelves [50]
Great haul. The Chaos of Stars is on my TBR list, I’ve heard so many good things about it. Enjoy ’em!

All of these books are really popular, Kelly! I never thought that Harper Collins could be so generous. <3 I can't wait for your review of Anti-Goddess. I am really eyeing to buy it. :D
Have fun reading all your lovely books, Kelly!
Charlotte recently posted…Stacking the Shelves {10}
I know and that’s what has gotten me so excited to read them Charlotte! :D
It might be awhile until I get a chance to read Antigoddess, I just have SO many other books to read first. >___< Kelly recently posted…Judge A Book By Its Signature: Everbound – Brodi Ashton

Wow, that Harper surprise is awesome! I requested A Radiant Sky but got turned down, sadly. I hope you enjoy it! I am excited to see how the series will end. Enjoy all your new books Kelly!
Jessica@Lovin’ Los Libros recently posted…Stacking the Shelves # 32
Aww, that sucks! D:
Harper (mistakingly?) sent me two ARCs of A Radiant Sky. If I wasn’t saving up to move out, I would totally send you one of those extra ARCs. :l

I know! My jaw literally dropped when I opened the package and saw what was in it.
Kelly recently posted…ARC Book Review: The Chaos of Stars
Spark is ten times better than Storm! It’s phenomenal. I can’t even. Maybe I fangirl over it a little too much because the main character is a twin, and I’m a twin, but still, I hope you love it :D
Becca @ Nawanda Files recently posted…Sexy Sundays: So Tough to Tame by Victoria Dahl
That’s what I’ve heard and hopefully it’s true.
And lucky, I want a twin! I want to do that whole “twin-thing.” :D
Kelly recently posted…ARC Book Review: The Chaos of Stars
Lovely haul! I still need to read Rose Under Fire soon, hopefully it doesn’t make cry like Code Name Verity haha. Can’t wait to read Antigoddess. Hope you enjoy all your new books! Happy readings (:
Here’s my Sunday Post & STS!

I still have to read Code Name Verity! I’m so disappointed in myself for not reading it yet. D:
Antigoddess looks so amazing! (:

Love your picks! We are huge fans of the Elemental series! And the books you bought are on our reading lists as well. Here’s our if you’re interested in checking it out: BiblioJunkies Happy Reading! ~ Bel
Ha ha, hopefully Spark will make me into a fan of the Elemental series too. :P
Kelly recently posted…ARC Book Review: The Chaos of Stars
Oh yay Rose under fire! I really can’t wait until I can read it — I adored CNV! Also, yay on Origin! Did you get it ordered personalized? Because I did and I hadn’t gotten it yet… and then I had to go back to Vegas and my mom went out of time and put a hold on the mail. Basically, Daemon is stuck in a post office most likely (I hope he’s not lost!) And awesome about getting so many ARCs! =)
Wendy recently posted…Mini Reviews: Exiled by M.R. Merrick, Catching Liam by Sophia Bleu and Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry
I’ve sadly never read Code Name Verity yet. -sobs and goes into hiding-
I didn’t order it personalized, just signed.
And aww, I understand your feeling! I was literally stalking the mailbox everyday until the book came. I’m a worrier. ;D
Pshh, Daemon would most likely be having the time of his life flirting with the ladies stopping by the post office. (;
