"Stacking the Shelves" is a weekly theme hosted by Tynga's reviews . Feel free to join in if you want. In this theme I showcase all the books I got this week.
I had a really good book week. The box of books I ordered form amazon came this week!! I am really excited for all of them! I also got in the mail a book I won, I am really excited to read that one!
~Won~
Insomnia by J.R Johansson
I won this in a giveaway on the author's blog (HERE). And I am so excited to read this!!! It looks so good! This one comes out June 13.
~Amazon~
Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac by Gabrielle Zevin.
I've heard some really great things about this one and I was going to buy it last week, but decided not to. When I went on amazon to order a few things this one was in their Bargain Books for 3.60. That defiantly beats 10 bucks at Barnes & Noble. So, I started this one already and it was good until I started hating the main character. I can't stand this girl.
The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy.
I read and reviewed this already (review HERE) I loved this book. So, I wanted my own copy and you never know with online shopping whether or not your going to like the copy and I really like this copy. So, I'm happy about that.
This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
I bought this one and the last two, because I just read the Great Gatsby (Review) and loved his writing. So, I wanted to read some more of his books. So, I got them.
Tales from the Jazz Age by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
This is just a few of his short stories and I got this mainly, because it has The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I watched this movie and Loved it, I also cried about ten times. I never knew this was a book (well short story) I really want to read this story. I also like this copy, but the text has the font of a type writer. Which I am wary about, because I can read it, but it would take me a while to get used to it.
The Beautiful and the Damned by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
This one just looks good. Thats all I really have to say.
That's all the books I got this week, what did you get?
Happy reading.
I'm so jealous!! I've been dying to read Insomnia!! I've heard a lot about Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac. I really hope it gets better!

DeleteCongrats on your win! I read The Great Gatsby quite a long time ago for school, and with the movie coming out, it might be a good time for a reread. Happy reading, and thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to watch the movie, but I have a feeling it won't match the book much.
DeleteCongrats on the win of Insomnia! I also won a copy of Insomnia from Jen on her blog, a while ago. It's supposed to be a great book! I haven't read it yet.

Daphne @ Reading Until Dawn
Its fine. Most of these don't really have hype surrounding them. Which is sad because Insomnia should have more hype.

The Great Gatsby wasn't the best book. So, don't get your hopes up.
