Stacked (110)

Inspired by Pop Culture Junkie and The Story Siren, Stacked is a weekly post where I share with you the books that I’ve bought, borrowed or received for the week.

Hi, guys. Hope you’re all having a good weekend. It’s starting to really feel like summer here and, even though I don’t love hot weather, I do love summer nights. I saw Maleficent last night (entertaining) and am seeing The Fault In Our Stars tonight. Everyone I know says they cried buckets at it so I am bringing tissues just in case. :) This week’s book haul consists of a few library books and a couple of books that I picked up at a comic book shop sale. 

A Natural History of Dragons by Marie Brennan – I’ve been meaning to read this book for a little while now. Love the cover.

Charm and Strange by Stephanie Kuehn – I picked this up solely because the cover looked cool. I have no idea what it’s about but I am going to read it. :)

Blood Kin and Iron Kin by M.J. Scott – I read the first book in this series, Shadow Kin, last week and really enjoyed it. My library had the next two books in the series so I went back and checked them out this week.

Figure Drawing for All It’s Worth by Andrew Loomis – This is a really popular book for artists about figure drawing and it’s been on my wish list for a while now. I was happy to find a hardcover copy on sale at the comic shop this weekend.

Uncanny X-Men Vol. 1: Revolution by Brian Michael Bendis – I am so behind on my comics so I was pretty restrained at the sale this weekend and only picked up this one volume. I haven’t read X-Men in a long time but I like Bendis as a writer and figured this might be a good place to start and see what’s been going on with the X-Men. I am also a fan of Chris Bachalo’s artwork.

As you can see, I have lots to keep me busy this weekend. Happy reading, everyone!
