Okay. It's official. I have no self-control. I actually should be doing my homework right this second, because I hate putting it off until Sunday--BAHAHAHA! Ah, okay, I tried! The beauty of the internet is that if you knew me in real life you'd realize: That's a total lie. I procrastinate like nobody's business. I NEVER do my homework on Saturdays. That's my bookish time. Somehow I still manage to get shit done. Not sure how, but that's how it usually goes. (Don't be like me!)

Back to bizniz: there's twelve books this week. Count 'em, TWELVE. Not the one or two I thought I'd end up buying or dragging my lazy ass to the library for. Where'd my self-control go, then? Welp, that's an easy question!

Probably the same place my hopes and dreams went. LOL. No. I kid, I kid.

The real answer is that I'm not entirely sure. All I know is, I was checking goodreads, realized a bunch of stuff I'd been waiting months for was coming out, and suddenly I was purchasing it all. I have a problem, guys. Seriously. No credit or debit card is safe with me. The only good thing to come out of this situation is the fact that I'll be comforted by my lack of money with new awesome books.

Totally worth it.

Anywho, enough about me. Did you do a Stacking the Shelves post? Leave me a link in the comments, and I'll stop on by!

Secret for a Song - S.K. Falls

VIA NETGALLEY

Redemption - C.J. Barry

I thought it'd be a while before I did another Stacking the Shelves post. Two weeks in, I'd still been adjusting to school. Blogging had been put on the backburner. But I just couldn't resist. These lovelies were calling to me.

I'd like to think I was super duper selective this week. At least, that's what I told myself I'd try to be. I thought I'd stick to only getting the books on my most-anticipated shelf. Things I'd waited months for and would die to read. Alas, that was not the case. While I was more selective than usual, all those pretty covers still managed to reel me in.

Stacking the Shelves #4

Stacking the Shelves is a  weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews where we share books we're adding to our shelves, be they physical or e-copies.

BOUGHT/BORROWED

Lash - L.G. Castillo

The Truth About You & Me - Amanda Grace

The 5th Wave - Rick Yancey

Obsession - Jennifer L. Armentrout

VIA RAZORBILL (Thank you!)

Earthbound - Aprilynne Pike

Right now, I'm a strange mix of happy and sad because I know that with school starting in two days for me (on a Monday, no less), I'm not going to have as much time as I want to read these pretties. My three AP classes this year (that my over-achieving self thought would be SUCH a great idea to choose) just won't allow for it. So thumbs down to the guy who decided to make school start at least two weeks earlier than usual!

Mini-rant aside, I'm SOOOOOOO excited! I've been trying to get a copy of Obsession for WEEKS now, and I finally have it!!! Let the Jennifer L. Armentrout fest begin! If you've been following me for a while, you'd already know that I LOVE me some JLA. And then there was Earthbound, which came in the mail in at the most perfect time ever! Another thanks to Razorbill for that!

The 5th Wave has been getting some fantastic reviews from some people whose opinions I trust, so I can't wait to start in on that one. Lash and The Truth About You & Me have some pretty frickin' swoony covers, which is like eyecandy (or crack) to a romance addict like me! Plus, it's been a while since I've read an angel story, so I'm super eager to dive into Lash as well.

Stacking the Shelves #3

Stacking the Shelves is a  weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews where we share books we're adding to our shelves, be they physical or e-copies.

BOUGHT/BORROWED

Ashes on the Waves - Mary Lindsey

The Beautiful and the Cursed - Page Morgan

Masque of the Red Death - Bethany Griffin

The Coincidence of Callie and Kayden - Jessica Sorensen

VIA NETGALLEY

The Dream Thieves - Maggie Stiefvater

Ten Tiny Breaths - K.A. Tucker

Oh, the pretties! You know, I told myself I was going to stay away from New Adult for a while and focus more on YA, but I just couldn't resist Ten Tiny Breaths or The Coincidence of Callie & Kayden. Especially with the latter, as I've heard people madly raving about it.

Also, I applaud the people that did the covers for Ashes on the Waves, The Beautiful and the Cursed, and Masque of the Red Death. Seriously. Wow. That intricate typography is just majestic and so are the photos. I couldn't pull that off if I tried--and trust me, I have.

Stacking the Shelves #2

Stacking the Shelves is a  weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews where we share books we're adding to our shelves, be they physical or e-copies.

BOUGHT/BORROWED

The Immortal Rules - Julie Kagawa

Unteachable - Leah Raeder

VIA NETGALLEY

Bound By Night - Larissa Ione

The Bane - Keary Taylor

Ahhh I'm so excited about this batch! I freaked out when I spotted Bound By Night on NetGalley. Like, I stood up and jumped around and squealed. It's been soooooo long since I've read her Demonica series that you'd think I'd forgotten how addictive her writing is. Nope! Nopenopenope! Plus that swoon-worthy cover. With that leather jacket and those black jeans and that V-neck and those hypnotic eyes...reminds me of that one picture of Ian Somerhalder (whom I continue to unabashedly rave over).

Check it out:

The hand. The space between shirt and jeans. The entire pose, actually. It looks like they modeled the entire thing after this picture. Can't blame 'em, though. *fans self*

Anyway, I've read mostly complimentary things about each book so if you guys don't hear from me in a while it's because I've turned my bedroom into a cave and don't plan on coming out until I've devoured each book. 

Now that that's settled, feel free to tell me what's new on your shelf! Happy reading!

The Edge of Never - J.A. Redmerski

Elite - Rachel van Dyken

Oh, I don't know where to start! They're all so pretty-looking! I think I MIGHT go with Days of Blood & Starlight just because I want to take a pause on all the New Adult I've been reading lately. And then maybe I'll swoop in on Elite.
