Stacking the Shelves : I bought too many books this week!

Hosted by Tynga's Reviews

Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! Click on the image above for more info & the linky list of other participating authors!

ARC for review received from J. Taylor Publishing:

I was lucky enough to get my hands on this YA paranormal as a beta reader awhile back. It has since been changed a smidge (so the author says) and polished. Looking forward to reading this one purely for the pleasure, cuz let me tell ya, Emi Gayle knows how to write an engaging story! The first book in this series, After Dark, kicked bum. HERE is my 4.5 star review if you're interested.

Bought:

Still Into You (Loving on the Edge, #1.5)

As you can see, I went a little overboard this week on the purchases.

*shame face*

It's just that when I find an author who snags your attention & emotions whole heartedly, I gotta have every thing they've written. And when it comes to erotic romance, Roni Loren in one of the best. I mean THE B.E.S.T. in the genre.

This fantasy comes from a faithful Twitter follower, Ruth Ellen Parlour. Seeing as how the kindle version is only 99 cents, I couldn't pass it up. Love me some fantasy!

That's my haul for the week. What did you add to your shelves / ereader this week??

Nabbed from the used book hut at the local dump:

Hey ... freebies are freebies, folks! Don't judge my trash-pickin'! This first one is a name I've seen EVERYWHERE, but I've yet to read her stuff. I know it's book #3 in the series, but hey. Freebie!

The Highlander's Touch (Highlander, #3)

And lastly, two authors who never let me down.

Hosted by Tynga's Reviews

Not a whole lot happening this week, but hey ... who the heck has time to read anyway??!!? Seriously. I wouldn't mind a few more hours in the day to get caught up.

Sadly enough, I have no idea of where & when I entered to win a signed paperback by my fellow Still Moments Publishing author, Denise Moncrief.

Having children does something to the brain. I kid you not. I call it 'mommy brain', and it's a horrible disease. But anyhoo. Onto the next.

I was on a roll this week! This one I picked up through a blog hop. The first book, The Moon Dwellers, got a 3.5 star rating from me. Review can be found HERE. Not jumping out of my skin, but I'll definitely give this one a go once I have a bit more time to dive in!!

Oh heck yes! Keri Lake rocks. Need I say more??? REALLY looking forward to this one!

And finally, I read a beta this week for a Emi Gayle, a fellow J. Taylor Publishing author. Wish I could share more than that, but I can't. Let's just say that when this book comes out, it's going to cause a BIG stir. YA Dystopian, but oh so much better than what's out there today! I can't wait to see what the public does with this one!

Get anything good this week? How do YOU find the time to read?

I'm about half-way through this historical paranormal romance. This is the first such genre I've ever read, and I'm really enjoying it. The paranormal aspect hasn't been too prominent just yet - ghost type stuff - but I see where it might be heading.

Definitely check this one out.

I'll admit to purchasing this book for a blog hop winner, but I just HAD to share that I'd done so. Like PNR? Wolves?

For any of you who haven't read J.A. Belfield's Holloway Pack Series, I encourage you to do so. British to a capital 'B', I adore Ms. Belfield's writing - her unique style & voice. The story & characters kinda kick major bum as well. ;)
