Stacking the Shelves { 01 }

 Stacking The Shelves hosted by Tynga's Reviews. 

I never really do these because I'm primarily an e-reader. I don't think e-book hauls are as fun, but *shrugs* who knows? Let me know if you think they're just as good as regular book hauls.

So this last week and yesterday was a ton of fun because I won a book from Tynga, I received a signed book from Tracey Garvis Graves, and I went to a thrift store and found a whole bundle of books priced 2.99 or lower. I didn't buy any novels for myself except one. The Series of Unfortunate Events & Pendragon books are for my son. I'm going back to clean out the store soon, lol.

So here is my crack haul:

Won

Goddess Interrupted by Aimee Carter

Received Signed Copy

On the Island by Tracey Garvis Graves

Bought

Merchant of Death by D.J. MacHale

The Never War by D.J. MacHale

The Reality Bug by D.J. MacHale

The Vile Vilage by Lemony Snicket

The Penultimate Peril by Lemony Snicket

The End by Lemony Snicket 

&

Phoenix Rising by Karen Hesse

I also bought one of those touch & feel books for my youngest. He begged for it because it was a cat version and it looked like our orange cat ... hence him wanting it. I didn't understand why he wanted to pet the book vs. petting our REAL LIVE cat from home... FOR FREE. Whatever. 3 year old logic for you.

I bought Phoenix Rising for myself because I remember reading it back in 8th grade and I LOVED it. It made me cry! Brings back memories of school times & reading it.

So that's my stash. I'm starting to build my library of books. E-books are awesome, but I miss having a library. What's better than a library carefully cultivated to be filled with nothing but my most favorite books?

Do post a link back so I can check out your meme post as well :0) I'll be posting a giveaway tomorrow so make sure I'm on your radar!
