Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! The hubby and I got a puppy since my last Stacking the Shelves, so I'll be spending Valentine's Day with both my boys. :) :) :) Meet Tucker! My new reading buddy.
Isn't he an adorable distraction? Now back to talking books:
ARCs for Review!
Can't Look Away by Donna Cooner: I read and enjoyed Skinny, and I got to meet the author, so of course I want to try her latest!
I'll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios: I've been reading a lot of hype about this one.
Half Wild by Sally Green: Another one I've read a lot of hype about.
Paperweight by Meg Haston
The Improbable Theory of Ana & Zak by Brian Katcher: I love reading Brian's reviews of YA books on www.foreveryoungadult.com, and am hopeful that his book is just as fun!
The Porcupine of Truth by Bill Konigsberg: Totally judging this book by it's cover. I love porcupines and the cover is adorbs.
Forbidden by Kimberley Griffiths Little: Another author I've met, and so I totally have to try her book!
The Revelation of Louisa May by Michaela MacColl: a book about an author of books? Yes, please!
Isla and the Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins: Can you believe I haven't started this trilogy yet? *hangs head in shame* Maybe having an ARC of the third book will motivate me.
Finding Paris by Joy Preble: Even though I had a few qualms about The Sweet Dead Life, I did enjoy the tone. So I'm hopeful I'll like Finding Paris.
Emancipated by M.G. Reyes: Emancipated teens... this is a new book topic to me! Excited to try it.
Thirteen Chairs by Dave Shelton
The Cage by Megan Shepherd: LOVE LOVE LOVE her Madman's Daughter trilogy; excited to try her new project!
A Cold Legacy by Megan Shepherd: I'm getting my own copy of this, so I'll pass along this ARC to "my" teens at the library.
Challenger Deep by Neal Shusterman: a book about a teen with mental illness, with illustrations by the author's son, who struggles with mental illness. Of course I'm going to support this!
The Baby Sitters Club: Kristy's Great Idea adapted by Raina Telgemeier: I LOVED these books as kid! I'm SUPER excited to revisit them in graphic novel format!
Made You Up by Francesca Zappia: Totally grabbed this because of the GORGEOUS cover. I want to frame it as wall art!
A Gift!
On my personal blog, Marie's Reads, I'm doing Popsugar's 2015 Reading Challenge. One of the goals is to read a book with antonyms in the title. My super aunt sent me this book to fulfill that goal! Thank you!
Library! (Free Books for Everyone!)
Laughing at My Nightmare by Shane Burcaw: I've heard nothing but praise for this one. And it just won an American Youth Media Award.
In Her Kitchen: Stories and Recipes From Grandmas Around the World by Gabriele Galimberti: Oh, how I love grandmas.
Alan Turing: The Enigma by Andrew Hodges: My mom saw and recommended the movie; I plan to read the book first.
The Sweetheart by Angelinia Mirabella
Letter to a Future Lover: Marginalia, Errata, Secrets, Inscriptions, and Other Ephemera Found in Libraries by Ander Monson: Why, of course!
New!
Dreamfire by Kit Alloway: Isn't that a pretty cover?

Your new puppy is ADORABLE! We only have a cat here, however a family friend is visiting and he has his Shih-tzu/miniature long haired dachshund here while visiting. She is a hoot. It's fun to watch my cat and her play, they love each other.
ReplyDeleteAlso - HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE! <3
I'll Meet You There is amazing! Definitely one of my all time favorites. Hope you will enjoy it when you get to it :)
ReplyDeleteTucker is absolutely adorable. And, you got some books I'm coveting too. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYou picked up a few I've had on my TBR. Enjoy!!

Great group of books but the puppy steals the show.
ReplyDeleteYou got some amazing books this week. I really like the puppy. He is adorable and will definitely be keeping you busy.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
I love your puppy! Great stash and Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteI've heard that the Isla books are wonderful. I think I need to add those to my reading list for 2015. Also, I watched a BBC documentary about Alan Turing last night. I still want to go see the new movie, but haven't been able to find time for it.
ReplyDeleteLots of good books you've got there! (And the puppy is cute, too.)
ADORABLE!!! Enjoy him!!! Great stack this week. Lots of good in there! Oh and why do we have to wait to comment on this page? I've never seen that before!
ReplyDeleteTucker looks adorable! Got me interested in Finding Paris. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteAww, your new pup is just ADORABLE!
ReplyDeleteGreat book haul and there are some on there that I need to read, like right now!
What a big haul. I always wonder over how many we haul per week versus how many we can possibly read in a week. It's no wonder the pile only grows, never shrinks.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, your puppy is SO CUTE! :D
ReplyDeleteYou got some wonderful books to read! I really want to read Can't Look Away, I'll Meet You There and Finding Paris - they look excellent.
Enjoy your new books! :)

Tucker is adorable! I'm guessing he might be more of a distraction than a reading buddy for awhile. :-) Like my puppies are. Great haul this week!
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! A Cold Legacy was really good. Forbidden and I'll Meet You there are on my to-read list. Ooh...and Half Wild! I still need to read the first one first though. Happy Reading!
