Stacked (30): The One With Days Of Blood And Starlight

Hi everyone! Welcome to Stacked, my weekly post where I share with you what books I’ve bought, borrowed and received during the week.

I can’t believe that Thanksgiving is around the bend. Seriously – where has this year gone? I am super excited to go back home though and see my adorable niece. It’s been almost 2 months since I last saw her, which is just too long. I am not usually a huge Black Friday shopper but I’m crossing my fingers that Amazon does a Kindle sale or something. Mine’s on its last legs and I’d love to get a replacement.  And Breaking Dawn came out this week. I know the movies are kind of awful but I see every one in the theater. Unfortunately I will have to wait until after Thanksgiving to see it since my usual posse and I won’t be able to get together until then. So you guys go see it first and let me know if you like it. :) Let’s dive into the books!

Borrowed

Assassin and the Empire – Short story set in the Throne of Glass world. I really liked ToG and am excited to read more in that world.

Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks – This is my book club book this month. Not really sure what it’s about but it looks historical.
Stealing Parker by Miranda Keneally – I’ve been getting a lot of contemp books lately. I hear Miranda Kenneally’s books are really fun.

For Review (NetGalley)
Naughty & Nice by Ruthie Knox, Molly O’Keefe & Stefanie Sloane – I don’t usually go for holiday/theme reads but I am a fan of Ruthie Knox and this looked short and fun.
Shadow Woman by Linda Howard – I am a fan of older Linda Howard (After the Night is the best). But I’ve heard mixed things about her newer stuff. This one popped up on NG so I figured I would give it a go.

Bought

Easy by Tammara Webber – Lucy at The Reading Date gave this one a really good review that made me want to read it ASAP. Thank goodness for Kindle because I was able to buy it in seconds. :)

And last, but certainly not least – I bought a copy of Laini Taylor’s new book Days of Blood and Starlight on Friday. She was in town for a signing and I was able to attend. Laini is always super fun to see and I am very excited about her new book.

woohoo!

That’s what I have this week. Does anyone else have any fun Thanksgiving plans?
