Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews, and is a great way to share your book haul for the week! I’m super excited this week because I was finally approved for a title on Edelweiss that I’ve been waiting a few weeks to hear about, plus I won some fantastic giveaways from some awesome bloggers that came in the mail this week, too. All in all, a great week and I’m very happy:) Here’s what I got (click on the covers to go to Goodreads):
For Review From Edelweiss & NetGalley:
Not A Drop To Drink by Mindy McGinnis. Release date: September 24 2013 (Katherine Tegen Books). Yep, this is the one! I’m so excited about this book. I fell in love with the cover when it was revealed, and the story looks like it’s going to be awesome too!
The Brokenhearted by Amelia Kahaney. Release date: October 8 2013 (HarperTeen). The publisher describes this as “The Dark Knight meets Cinder…” Wow! A ballerina falls to her death—and then wakes up in a laboratory with a bionic heart. It sounds a bit like Frankenstein, too. I can’t wait to get to it!
Carniepunk by multiple authors. Release date: July 23 2013 (Gallery Books). This is an urban fantasy anthology with a carnival theme. Awesome idea, right? It’s got a fantastic line-up, including Kevin Hearne.
Received for Blog Tours:
Runes by Ednah Walters. My stop for this tour is June 5th. I really enjoyed Ednah’s book Betrayed, and I’m looking forward to reading another book from her!
Frankie’s Monster by Rae Hachton. This story is, not surprisingly, inspired by Frankenstein. It also has “mature content,” and yes, I am looking forward to the mature content! My tour stop is later this month on April 28.
Won:
Mila 2.0 by Debra Driza. Big thanks to Wendy at The Midnight Garden for sending me this book! I feel very lucky because Wendy always has tons of people enter her giveaways. What are the chances?? I’m looking forward to reading it, I’ve read some really good reviews.
Gated by Amy Christine Parker. I won this ARC from Hafsah at Icey Books! Thanks so much, Hafsah! I actually won it back in January, before the ARCs were even printed, and I just got it in the mail a couple of days ago.
Indie for Review:
Hero To Zero by Zach Fortier. I hooked up with Zach back when I first started this blog, and I gave his first book a not-so-great review. But that didn’t stop him from sending me more of his books! I think this is the fourth book I’ve received from Zach, and I have to say I’m actually looking forward to reading it.
I’d love to hear what you received this week, too! Please leave me a link in the comments:)
Great haul of books! I just got approved for Carniepunk too and have already started it! Also can’t wait for The Broken Hearted and Not A Drop To Drink. Happy reading 🙂

Ok, I have to admit that I’m totally jealous of this book haul! Not A Drop To Drink looks amazing! Have fun reading all your goodies!

Thanks for stopping by, Mindy!
Ooh, Carnie Punk sounds fun! And yay for winning Mila 2.0! I’m reading it right now and really enjoying it. 🙂
Oh good, glad you’re enjoying Mila:)
Not a Drop to Drink sounds amazing, I hope you enjoy it and the other books you got this week! I just started Mila 2.0 and it’s pretty good so far.
Wow, nice haul. Carniepunk and Not a Drop to Drink both look interesting. Here’s hoping all your new reads are good reads!
My STS
YAY for Not a Drop To Drink! Got that one last week – I hope you and I both like it! I also got The Brokenhearted this week! HarperTeen is amazing. Congrats on the books you won! I must get Mila 2.0 at some point 😀
Check out my STS post!
I also got Not a Drop to Drink this week and I am very excited to read it. Interested to see what you think of Gated as I am on the fence about adding it and don’t really know if it’s a book for me.
