Stacking the Shelves
Stacking the Shelves is a weekly feature hosted by Tynga's Reviews showcasing new books we've gotten a hold of (bought/given/gifted/trade/for review).Hi everyone and welcome to my seriously belated StS post! Really though, this has items from my birthday haul which was in...March O.O I've had the post drafted up but I ended forgetting to post one week and then expecting books the next, until it snowballed and here we are in June!
Let's start with some late but very great birthday goodness:
The Dark Days Club by Alison Goodman, The Last Ever After by Soman Chainani,
The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater, and A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
*You know it's a good time when you have Stiefvater and Maas in one bookhaul*
*You know it's a good time when you have Stiefvater and Maas in one bookhaul*
I also got this EPIC Raven Cycle Mug:

And onto physical review copies:
Radiance by Catherynne M. Valente, Riders by Veronica Rossi, Children of Earth and Sky by Guy Gavriel Kay.

Alcatraz VS The Evil Librarians, Alcatraz VS The Scrivener's Bones, Alcatraz VS The Knights of Crystallia (Alcatraz #1-3) by Brandon Sanderson

That's it for me, we are officially caught up on all the goodies I've gotten since March
Have you read any of these? Share your thoughts with me please?

Thank you!
DeleteNice haul! I've been wondering about those School of Good and Evil books, I saw them at the bookstore and thought they looked good but haven't checked em out yet. May have to...
ReplyDeleteThanks Greg! I really enjoyed the School for Good and Evil books despite a few issues, so I can't wait to see how it all wraps up!
DeleteBetter late than never with the book haul post, hehe! I'm practically crying looking at all these beauties in one post: The Dark Days Club, TRK, AND ACoMaF! And now we both have epic Raven Cycle mugs! THANK YOU so much again! ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteLOL! Well I work Saturdays too so it makes forgetting much easier XD I know right?! SO MANY BEAUTIES ♥ TRK and ACoMaF were some seriously epic books! I can't wait to check out TDDC too ;) Oh and OUR MUGS!!! I'm SO HAPPY you love yours too and that you don't mind that I kind of copied you LOL xxxxx
DeleteEEEP! So many awesome books! I loved The Dark Days Club, Riders, and Children of Earth and Sky! I plan on binge reading The Raven Cycle series, now that all of the books are published. ;) I hope you enjoy all of your new books, Micheline!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous weekend. :)
Check out my STS post!
Awesome, glad to get some feedback on those three^^ I'm really excited about all of them - especially TDDC since I've heard A LOT of good things :D Oh man, I hope that you'll adore The Raven Cycle as much as I did Alyssa!! xx
DeleteAwww!! Awesome books in this haul, Micheline!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED both THE DARK DAYS CLUB and THE RAVEN KING (YAAAAASSSSSS!!!!)! And that mug for the Raven Cycle is AWESOME!!! I saw it on Maggie Stiefvater's Society6 page...and I was so tempted, and now I'm tempted all over again! haha
Enjoy all of your fabulous books!!! And I'm pretty sure I wished you happy birthday on the actual day, but it's never bad to wish someone well more than one, so Happy Belated Birthday!!! :D
Thank you Ambur!!
DeleteTRK WAS THE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR ♥ Followed closely by ACoMaF! I still need to get to Dark Days Club but I'm hoping to do so soon! Gah that mug broke my world when it arrived, I still swoon everytime I drink from it LOL!
Thank you my friend^^ pretty sure you did wish me a happy birthday then, but I'll take another wish♥
So many amazing books here! I can’t wait to read the last book in THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL trilogy–the first two books were excellent. I also need to read THE RAVEN CYCLE because it sounds fantastic. Happy reading!! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Rabiah! Same here^^ I waited much too long to get my hands on it! I enjoyed the first two books a lot too :D OMG I hope you ADORE The Raven Cycle as much as I do ♥
DeleteLOL it took you three months to share our birthday haul? :p I know you enjoyed The Raven Cycle - as did I - and I already look forward to listening to the series in audio now, Micheline.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week ahead and happy reading!
Lexxie @ (un)Conventional Bookviews
Well, I work on Saturdays so forgetting to post it happens...frequently. The Raven Cycle is THE BOOK this year...with ACoMAF following closely behind! A reread is DEFINITELY in my future where both of these series are concerned! Thank you! xx
DeleteI absolutely LOVED The Raven Cycle series, too, Micheline :) I'm going to listen to the whole thing starting once I finish my current listen :)
DeleteI hope you're having a fantastic week!!
Lexxie @ (un)Conventional Bookviews
That Raven Cycle mug is the best, so cool! And yeah, gotta love when you can have a bookhaul with both Maas and Stiefvater ;) Bec liked the Dark Days club, I hope you enjoy it as well :D
ReplyDeleteI agree! Yup, can't go wrong with Maas and Stiefvater - they're two out of my top four favorite authors :D So far I've heard nothing but rave reviews for Dark Days Club so I can't wait to (finally) read it - it'll be my first Alison Goodman read! (Naturally Eon is on the tbr shelf as well LOL)
DeleteOMG I am officially freaking out at your book haul this week. I don't even know where to start! I guess the Brandon Sanderson books, because I LOVE the Alcatraz series so hard :) I only started it this year as well, and I am officially hooked. They're very different from his other books, but they are SO funny. I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I did!
ReplyDeleteAlso fantastically excited to see Guy Gavriel Kay's book. I don't think it was his best I've read, but it was still great and anyway, everyone should read GGK! Also amazing that you got The Raven King. I'm also a bit curious about A Court of Mist and Fury, but I'm a bit nervous due to all the mixed things I've seen :)
~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
LOL! I'm glad I'm not the only one Mogsy^^ I'm only about 70 pages into Alcatraz but loving it so far - then again, I knew I would, because Sanderson ♥
DeleteGGK is one I definitely want to check out soon - hopefully it'll be enough to turn me onto his other books! The Raven King was THE BEST of 2016 so far with ACoMaF close behind. I know a lot of people were upset with the ship switch but man did it ever work for me...it was like a breath of fresh air :D
The Dark Days Club is an awesome read. Hope you love it as well as all of your books!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the feedback Barb, hopefully I'll feel the saem way :) Thanks for stopping by!!
DeleteI've been meaning to read Soman Chainani's series - I own all three books, but I haven't gotten to them yet. Love the mug AND the Sanderson books!
ReplyDeleteNicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction
Oh well if you own all three you can marathon through them :D I read the first two and enjoyed them so I can't wait to see how it ends! I ADORE the mug and Sanderson of course ♥♥
DeleteYour bookhaul is amazeballs, Micheline (LIKE YOU.)
ReplyDeleteI hope you LOVE The Dark Days Club! It's a little slow in the beginning but OMG it's so good! ALSO YAY FOR TRK. I now own BLLB and TRK so I guess I have some binging to do ;)
The cover for Radiance is GORGEOUS (and kind of reminds me of HUGO CABRET) so I'll have to look it up! ALSO ENJOY RIDERS. :DDD
Basically, happy reading <3 <3
Awww you're the best Rashika! Miss you ♥
DeleteI've heard nothing but amazing things about TDDC so I'm really excited to get into it! It'll be my first Alison Goodman read - even though I own Eon! OMG I can't wait to see how you like BLLB and TRK!! :D
I seriously need to read Hugo Cabret - I own a copy. I have no excuse LOL! And agreed on Radiance and Riders! Thank you my friend! xxxxxx
I have The Dark Days Club but I still haven't read it! I am about halfway through ACoMaF but I just can't get into this. Have you read it, yet?
ReplyDeleteSame here Zeee^^ Oh no, yeah I ADORED AcoMaF - I read it in like 2-3 sittings XD
DeleteThat's a whole lot of awesome! I read The Raven King already and it's SO GOOD! I hope you love them all :)
