Stacking The Shelves (12)

Hey Chroniclers! This week was such a good week in terms of books for me! I got so many books this week, more than I usually get and it's not even all of them. I have a few books coming in this coming week and then the week after some more. =O It feels like Christmas! Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by the amazing Tynga over at Tynga's Reviews where we share with you what we got the past week!

I got 8 books in total this week!

On Tuesday, I went to New York City with a friend to go to Barnes and Noble. It's 15 minutes away from where I live and since I have no car I'd rather take the train there and visit my second home, the city. We went there to buy Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare which I'll read in the month of April. But while I was there I couldn't leave with just one book so I bought The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness. Now I was content with these two books but I was showing my friend the leather bound editions of books from B&N and I turned to the side thinking it was there, which they weren't, but noticed that the hardcover copy of Les Misérables by Victor Hugo was only eight bucks. Cheaper with the membership so I HAD to get it which I did.

This week I also found out I won a giveaway over at Lindsay Cummings Blog and won a copy of Nobody by Jennifer Lynn Barnes which I received on Friday. I was shocked though that they also sent me a copy of Every Other Day by Jennifer Lynn Barnes and even more shocked that it was signed! So thank you so much for that and everyone go check out Lindsay's blog! She's also an author =O

And I just recently got back from Barnes and Noble about an hour or so ago. While I was at the Barnes and Noble on Tuesday, I saw that they had Legend by Marie Lu with the new cover as a hardcover! And I didn't mind the cover change, had I not seen the new cover as hardcover so I had to go buy it today to match!

Old Cover vs New Cover

And while I was there today, I also got Prodigy by Marie Lu and decided to get The Ask and the Answer by Patrick Ness.

And thus, my Stacking The Shelves is concluded with eight freaking books. My TBR pile just shot straight up! Next week I should be receiving three books and then the following week another three. I feel like I'm getting books faster than I could read them. But I'll get to them soon!

But that's all I got! What did you guys get this week? Let me know down in the comments below!

Tuesday's Novel Spotlight (51)

Hey Chroniclers! It's Tuesday which means that books have been released into the world but the one that I'm most excited for today is a book that is the final in the trilogy! I'm talking about...

It is the third and final book in The Infernal Devices Trilogy and I'm currently on my way to NYC which is like 15 minutes away from here to go pick up my copy! I'm so excited for this book as you can tell by the countdown up above. I can't wait to see how it all ends!

Will you guys be reading it? Let me know down in the comments below!

Monday's Novel Talk (62)

Hey Chroniclers! It's me again! This time I'm bringing you some Novel Talk a little earlier than I have in the past few weeks. Yay for being almost on time! lol

Since last week I have finished reading Guys Read: The Sports Pages edited by Jon Scieszka. I should be writing a review for it soon, just have to sit down and get to it.

I also finished reading The Namesake by Steven Parlato. It was such a good book and I should be writing a review for it soon as well. Seriously such a good book I loved it that much.

I also started reading A Storm of Swords by George R. R. Martin and I'm currently on Page 19 of 924. To finish by March 31 I divided the number of days by the number of pages and came to the conclusion that I need to read 66 pages per day. If I read more than that per day, I'll finish it sooner! I've missed reading this so I can't wait to see what goes down and I can't wait for the show to come back!

That's all I've been reading! What have you guys been reading? Leave your comments down below!

Stacking The Shelves (11)

Hey Chroniclers! I was supposed to put this up yesterday but the day went by so fast and before I knew it it was over. I have no idea how that even happened! But I'm here now and time to show you what I got! Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by the joyous Tynga over at Tynga's Reviews in which we show you what we bought or received during the week! This week I went bad, especially considering that tomorrow I'll be buying another book and in the next week or so I'll be getting two more. It seems like my TBR Pile will never go down! D=

 Barnes & Noble sent me a coupon for 20% off and I always said that I'd only buy a book if there was a coupon so I could limit myself and save money at that. So with the coupon I bought Me and Earl and the Dying Girl by Jesse Andrews. I've heard about this book so much on YouTube and it seriously got me interested and so I'm super freaking to read this one! I'm not sure when I'll get to it though. I also love the way the cover feels. It's like rough parchment!

On Saturday I went to Walmart and I went into the movies section and looked for Game of Thrones Season 2 but they only had the DVD when I was looking for Blu-Ray. So instead I settled on a book, Rise by Andrea Cremer. My mom actually bought me it so my money has been saved. Again, I hear the prequel series are the better books so I'm pretty excited to read this as well. I'm not sure when I'll read it but hopefully soon.

So that's all I got! What did you guys get this week? Let me know in the comments below!

Monday's Novel Talk (61)

Hey Chroniclers! The day flew by so quick today! Before I knew it it was already 6 PM when I thought it was 12. But it's Monday again so I get to let you guys know how my reading has been going since last week!

I finally finished A Clash of Kings by George R. R. Martin in the early hours of Sunday morning! I said I was going to finish it Saturday but I was supposed to go out but then something went down and I didn't read nor did I go out. Of course I loved it and I can't wait to start book 3 but I must wait!

Now I'm currently reading Guys Read: The Sports Pages edited by Jon Scieszka. I'm on page 81 of 245 and it's a collection of 10 short stories about sports. Whether there's a point to the story or not, it's all about sports. I'm enjoying it. The first story was a funny one that had no point but it was entertainment. The second one was a bit eh but had a nice meaning to it and the third one ended with an oh snap that also had a valuable lesson to it.

I'll be reviewing this one shortly after I finish it so keep your eyes out for that.

And that's all I've been reading really! Hopefully I'll finish this one soon so I can start my next review book! What have you guys been reading? Leave your comments down below!

Stacking The Shelves (10)

Hey Chroniclers! Another week has come and gone and many of us have gotten more books to add to our shelves. Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by the wonderful Tynga over at Tynga's Reviews where we showcase the books we received this week! This week it's basically a blessing that I didn't get a lot of things so that my TBR Pile doesn't go any higher.

When Cinder by Marissa Meyer first came out or I think ARCs were going around, my friend Ky from Can't Find A Bookmark read it and fell in love and just told me about it like the reader she is. I admitted it sounded good and last week I received a copy of Cinder and when I told my friend Ky, she offered to send me her ARC of Scarlet since she already had a hardcover and here we go! I finally got it and I can't wait to read both of them!

I keep hearing good things about both of these books and I'm so excited but I'm not sure when I will read them. Perhaps sometime before June but we shall see.

What did you guys get this week? Let me know in the comments down below!
