It's been a month since my last Stacking the Shelves post because I went for 3 weeks with no new books. Crazy! This week I got a couple of books for review. I like having my rate of incoming books slow down a bit so I can catch up on the almost entire bookcase of unread books I have at home. These two sound great though.

For Review:
Big Fat Disaster by Beth Fehlbaum
Thanks to Merit Press!

The Tropic of Serpents by Marie Brennan
Thanks to Tor!

Over the past two weeks, I'm completely avoided Netgalley and requesting review books. I did get one surprise book for review, but I've been working at chipping away at my massive pile of review books rather than requesting anything new. 

For Review:

Rex Regis by L. E. Modesitt Jr. - Thanks to Tor for this surprise. I think this is book 8 in this series and I haven't had a chance to read the previous books, but hopefully soon!. 

Bought: 

Cress by Marissa Meyer - I finally got around to getting a finished copy. So good! Review.

Last weekend was the Edmonton Book Bloggers Holiday meetup. While I don't live in Edmonton currently, I made the 3 hour drive to visit my fellow bloggers. I even got to meet two of the newer members, Mandy from Forever Young Adult and Tanya (whose blog I can't find suddenly. Tanya, if you read this, please comment with your blog link and I will come visit you).

We did our secret santa, which is always a blast. Tanya totally spoiled me. Ambur from Burning Impossibly Bright also spoiled me! Fellow bloggers Tammy, Ambur, Cass and Aylee and I also made some baby quilts from the new (or very soon to be) moms in the group.


Gifted:

The Summoning by Kelley Armstrong
The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong
The Reckoning by Kelley Armstrong
Devonian Garden bookmark - doesn't the one flower look like a tropical fish!
HUGE thanks to Tanya for gifting me this entire trilogy. It was nice to meet you as well!

Thanks so much Ambur! I was so excited to read this! I'm a sucker for anything about horses and this series comes so highly recommended.

That's all for me this week! I can't wait to see what everyone else got!
