Hello everyone! Welcome to my Stacking the Shelves post this week. You can find out all about the meme here. Basically, it’s hosted by Tynga over at Tynga Reviews, and it’s a way to share the books you received each week.
The past 2 weeks have been insanely busy for me, as school has started up. I’m already buried in homework and am seeing my free time slowly dwindle down, unfortunately. But, anyways, I’ve had a pretty slow bookish week, which isn’t a bad thing at all, since I already have so much to read!
Won
- Burn for Burn by Siobhan Vivian and Jenny Han- Thank you to Sarah from The Book Life! <3 I won this during a Twitter giveaway that Sarah had. I’m super excited to start it. I’ve read some good reviews, and it sounds like a fun book about revenge.
Kindle
- Spark by Brigid Kemmerer- I just had to buy this one after I read Storm! I’m happy to say that I definitely enjoyed this more than Storm. It was so awesome! If you haven’t read Storm yet, then you definitely need to pick that book up.
Library
- Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Mass- Not going to lie, I had a bit of a spazz attack when I saw this sitting on the shelf! My library is so lame, it never gets any new young adult books, so you can imagine my surprise and excitement when I saw this book there! I’ve already finished this one, and while I liked it, I didn’t love it.
- Seraphina by Rachel Hartman- I’ve heard only good things about this book so far. I was also surprised when I saw this in the library, and immediately snapped it up. I’ve just started this one, and I think it’s ok, albeit confusing.
- Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult and Samantha Van Leer- This one looks so cute! I’ve read some good reviews, and I wanted something fun, so I grabbed this book.
- Team Human by Sarah Rees Brennan- I heard this one was really funny! It was also another surprise find, so I decided to just grab it. It’s been a while since I read something seriously funny!
NetGalley
- Eve & Adam by Michael Grant and Katherine Applegate- When I saw this on NetGalley, I couldn’t resist requesting it! The cover is so gorgeous, how could I possibly have resisted?! Not only that, but the synopsis sounds wonderful. I’ve seen some iffy reviews though, but hopefully I’ll still enjoy this one!
Well, that’s it for me this week! What books did YOU get this week?
Great books this week! I really enjoyed Burn For Burn so I hope you do too. Oh and I can't wait to see what you think of Seraphina, Throne Of Glass, and Eve & Adam. I have been dying to read all of those. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteYay, great haul Aneeqah! I read Burn for Burn a while ago and thought it was pretty fun. I can't wait to see what you think. I need to read Team Human soon as I loved Sarah Brennan's Unspoken. Looking forward to your reviews! :)
ReplyDeleteI wasn't very impressed with Storm but I'm willing to read Spark just the same. Throne of Glass is definitely a great read. I've heard good things about Seraphina too. Nice haul, Aneeqah! Happy reading :D
ReplyDeleteGreat haul Aneeqah! I read Eve and Adam last week and it ended up being a 3 star book for me. Hopefully you enjoy it more. I have heard Seraphina is awesome, so maybe it will get better after the confusing bits! Enjoy all of your awesome new reads! Have a great Sunday.

Great books, Anneqah! I really want to read Seraphina and Throne of Glass. I'm on the fence about Team Human -- I read it and thought it was meh. Oh, and Burn for Burn looks super good!
ReplyDeleteHope you have time to read sometime! :)
Nice haul! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
My StS!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteI've haven't read any of your new books, but I've heard so much about them, I'm especially interested in Eve & Adam and Seraphina.
Happy reading!
SERAPHINA! I loved that one, Aneeqah, so I hope you enjoy it! I wasn't a big fan of Throne of Glass, Eve and Adam, or Spark since I liked Storm better, but I hope you enjoy all your new novels! Fantastic haul this week, dear!(:
ReplyDeleteI've heard lots about Burn for Burn..
ReplyDeleteStill, the ones that caught my eye were Seraphina, Between the Lines and Throne of Glass all of which I want to read.
I didn't enjoy Eve and Adam so much, but I hope you can enjoy it more! :)
Great haul, Anneqah! :)
Awesome haul.. I wish my library would carry Seraphina. :( Enjoy them.

ReplyDeleteYour library is awesome for having it on your shelves. (You said your library is lame. I totally understand. Mine can be too. I write a lot of books down in their request list.)
