Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews. Bloggers share what new books (physical or virtual) they got these week. This is the first week that I'm participating! I like getting new books and showing them. So here's my first haul!

First of all, I think the cover is really pretty. I try not to get persuaded by it, but unfortunately in this case I was. I read some negative reviews on Goodreads, but I decided to give it a shot and find out for myself.

One of the reasons I started this blog was to talk with other people about the books I read and got. That's the same reason why I love to read other blogs. I've discovered some great titles that way and this is one of them!
League Of Strays looks interesting, I'll be checking it out on GR. I bought Hourglass a few weeks ago and really need to start it soon, so I can get to Timepiece which I received for review.

I hope you enjoy League of Strays, I was going to read it but declined my copy because of the reviews. Just didn't leave a nice taste in my mouth. Also, enjoy Hourglass, I still have to read that. Love the cover.

Hourglass was a fun read! A bit easy to spot the plot twists, but Kaleb MORE than makes up for it. Yay for fictional crushes! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteHourglass has such a pretty cover. Enjoy your new books. New follower. Come visit me if you get the chance.

I got League Of Strays as well and then decided not to read and review it since I've heard horrible things about it.

League of Strays has been on my radar for a bit, too, mostly because of the bad reviews. However, I think I will give it a read for myself.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your new goodies :-)
