Stacking the Shelves (3)

Stacking the Shelves is a meme by Tynga's Reviews to share the books you've recently acquired.

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!



Racing Savannah by Miranda Kenneally
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.


Review:


Unaccompanied Minor by Hollis Gillespie
No Surrender Soldier by Christine Kohler
Thanks to Merit Press!

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

  11. That flower on your bookmark does totally look like a fish!!! And I really hope you like Racing Savannah, Megan!!! I loved that one, and I think you will, too...especially the horse parts! ;D

    Also...Tanya doesn't actually have a blog. :P We met her at the Kelley Armstrong signing, and invited her in because we bonded over chatting about books. haha She talked about making a blog, but I don't think she's done it yet. She does have Goodreads though. :)

    1. Thanks again so much for the book Ambur! I am so excited!

      And that would make sense why I couldn't find Tanya's blog. I was so confused. I was looking at the blog belonging to Tania/Kirt, but that didn't seem right. Thanks for clearing that up!
