Stacking the Shelves [36]

STSmall_thumb[2]

Stacking The Shelves 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!

Guidelines:

  • Create your own Stacking The Shelves post. You can use my official graphic or your own, but please link back to Tynga’s Reviews so more people can join the fun!

  • You can set your post any way you want, simple book list, covers, pictures, vlog, sky is the limit!

  • I am posting Stacking The Shelves on Saturdays, but feel free to post yours any day that fits you.

  • Visit Tynga’s Reviews on Saturday and add your link so others can visit you!

  • Visit other participants link to find out what they added to their shelves!

If you want to find out more about Stacking The Shelves, please visit the official launch page!

------------------

Welcome to the last Stacking the Shelves of 2012! I'd like to take a quick moment to thank everyone for participating, on behalf of all of the Tynga's Reviews family. I'd also like to wish you all happy holidays! I hope you're all enjoying some time with family and friends. I am. :) I'm at my parents' place and my brother is home from Australia so this has been a wonderful holiday so far. I've been extremely lucky on the book front since my post at the start of the month, so I have a lot to share. Unfortunately, I don't have pictures of anything because I'm travelling, and I tend to buy ebooks (marked with asterisks), so I hope you'll forgive me!

  12. Your links are all showing up, no worries. I mistakenly set it to show link instead of names so it was using too much space. All fixed!

  13. Nice book haul. I would like to read more of Jennifer Estep's books to.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Wow! Lovely haul!! I'd be jealous of Vicki Pettersson's book, but I still have to read the first one! Have been so behind on my 2012 releases and prior releases to that is just as scary!

    Happy Reading!

    My STS will be up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by!

    Have a GREAT weekend!
