Stacking the Shelves #8

Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews.


Happy weekend everyone! Hope you all got some lovely books this week. :D Here's what I got.

  • Forever Mine by Elizabeth Reyes. To feed my obsession with YA indie contemporary novels. I actually cannot get enough of them right now! 
  • Pride and Popularity by Jenn James. Don't know much about this one but I can never pass by a P&P related book. I hope it's good! 
  • Easy by Tammara Webber. Have you guys seen the hype surrounding this one?! It was only published recently and the reviews are flying in. I'm intrigued! 
  • Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire. This one is a bit controversial but I'm really curious, it has so many good reviews too so here goes nothing!  
  • Meant to Be by Lauren Morrill. I was bouncing with excitement when I got approved for this on Netgalley! It better live up to my expectations. 
  • The Vincent Brothers by Abbi Glines. YES!!!!!!!!!
  • Between The Lines by Tammara Webber. This looks like my kind of thing and Tammara Webber's books are so popular right now!
  • Lonely Souls by Karice Bolton. For a blog tour in July. Very excited!
That's it for me this week. I know I haven't had as many reviews as usual up the last few weeks. I've been scheduling stuff ahead. I should be caught up soon though! Looking forward to seeing what you all got!

    Wow ! That's an awesome haul ! :D
    Easy was fantastic ! :D I really hope you end up enjoying it. :)
    All these books look absolutely fabulous ! I hope you enjoy all of them.
    You're really lucky you got approved for Meant To Be. I thought Random House didn't approve books for readers outside US.

    Happy reading, Nicola. :D

    Wow Nicola that's a load of great books!
    I LOVED Beautiful Disaster & I have Easy DL'd to read, also heard great things. I read the first Moreno brothers but didn't love it, I may need to revisit them again though.
    Also I enjoyed Vincent Boy's but Beau was my favorite so I don't know if I like Brothers...let me know how you go with it :)
    Happy reading...the weather is perfect for it LOL

    Controversial? Yes. Great read? Totally.

    I loved Beautiful Disaster but I read it before the drama. So, it's upto you.

    I've definitely been noticing all the great reviews of Tamara Webber's books. I need to pick up a copy of Easy soon! I also can't wait to hear what you think of Beautiful Disaster. It does seem like one of those controversial books, but I'm curious to read it. I hope you enjoy all these. :D

    I forgot about Meant to Be! Must.. resist... requesting it...

    lol. I don't want to request anymore until I'm all caught up with my NG books. I guess that's motivation.

    Great Haul, hon!

    I jumped up and down about Meant to Be too! I can't wait to see what you think of Beautiful Disaster, I think it's an either love it or hate it book (I loved). Hope you end up loving The Vincent Brothers as much as I did and oh gosh, Easy!! I think that one is my favorite of the year so far. Awesome haul Nicola! :)

    Ooh. All of those books look amazing!! Can I please just steal your shelves for this week? You wouldn't mind would you? I mean, would you even notice that all those pretty and amazing books were missing? Of course NOT!

    Baha.

    Seriously though, enjoy all of those reads, they sound fantastic and I am only mildly jealous…

    Here's my Letterbox Love for this week!

      Someone told me they were approving again so I gave it a go and got approved! They declined me for two other titles though. It's confusing!

    I am dying to read Meant To Be, they declined me twice now. I got approved on Edelweiss but somehow couldn't download it. Oh well, I will survive. Hopefully.

    I am also looking forward to reading Easy, The Vincent Brothers and Beautiful Disaster.

    Oh, man, so you liked the Vincent Boys, too? And you're this excited about The Vincent Brothers? Peer pressure is killing me! As much as I always try to avoid vanillas, there are some I just can't... or don't want to, really.
    Happy reading, Nicola. You have so many lovely books there.

    Gosh I love Easy! I hope you're going to love it too, Nicola! <3 Can't wait to hear what you think of Beautiful Disasters! Wow, you got Meant to Be - serious book envy here LOL! <3 Last time I heard Random House only accept US book blogger so I'm wondering whether they've changed their criteria (hopefully they have!). :D

    Happy reading, Nicola, and enjoy your books! x)

    Hooray for Meant To Be! I'm so excited to start it, I'm way behind on all my other review books but I literally downloaded it the moment I got the approval and have shoved it in to read tomorrow haha. I can't wait! And I'm eager to hear what you say about Beautiful Disaster, I've heard mixed things but am still interested in it.

    Thank you for stopping by, and happy reading!
