Filling the Shelf – 112
Filling the Shelf is basically Mailbox Monday or the more recent Stacking the Shelves, but with a title that suits my blog! If you’re interested in joining the fun or seeing what other bloggers added to their shelves, I invite you to visit the two hosts!
Happy Monday all!
Only a few days left before we leave for Paris, and there is so much more left to do! Schedule the blog, amongst other things, but also packing and getting some last few things. But I am SO excited! I can’t wait to go!
I’m also excited about the new books that came in :
Flirting in Italian by Lauren Henderson : One word : Italy! Yay! Also, summer and boys; this looks like it could be cute and fun.
You Look Different in Real Life by Jennifer Castle : Contemporary YA about a small group of teens living their lives on film. I liked the idea, we’ll see if the story is as fun!
A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness : I have seen NO negative reviews of this one. I’m sure they’re out there, but it’s all 5 stars and a few 4 amongst my Goodreads friends. Can’t wait to read it; I might even break my YA contemporary streak this week to read it before we leave on our trip!
House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski : I heard this was scary and shocking, and I’ve heard it’s overhyped; either way, I’ve heard this book will have me react, and I love books that have an effect on me. Also, it’s super interesting inside!
What did you add to your shelves recently?
A MONSTER CALLS looks very creepy! I hope your new books are enjoyable. Enjoy your trip to Paris!!!
Thank you! 😀
I’ve heard mixed things about Flirting in Italian, but even so it’s still a book I think I’d enjoy reading.
A Monster Calls is Amazing!
Nice nice!!!
Parissss?
WOWzers.
I’m so envious.
Promise you’ll take a zillion pics for us k? 🙂
I’ll take zillions of trillions of pictures! I’m pretty sure I’ll have enough for the whole next year haha! 😀
Paris? JEALOUS! Flirting in Italian sounds like a quick, fun read and You Look Different in Real Life sounds really interesting. I’ve been meaning to read Jennifer Castle’s The Beginning of After when it came out but I haven’t gotten around to it yet. Now I have to add You Look Different in Real Life to my list as well! Thanks! 😀
The same thing happened to me with The Beginning of After! If I do enjoy this one, I’ll probably add it to my shelves soon after. And I finished Flirting in Italian today, and it was really fun!
Loving all of your new books and their covers. That’s what is so cool about YA as they have some of the best covers ever!! Have fun in France!!!
I love YA covers because they are so colorful and fun!
And thank you! 🙂
Can’t wait to hear what you think of House of Leaves. That book intimidates me! I still haven’t read Flirting in Italian, but it looks so cute!
Have an amazing time in Paris!!
It intimidates me too! I’m planning on reading it this fall. I’m a bit nervous about reading it!
And thank you!
Enjoy your new books. Have a great time in Paris!
Thanks, I will!
A MONSTER CALLS looks scary. 🙂
ENJOY your books.
