Stacking the Shelves: May Haul

A weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews

Well it was another month of not pretending like I'm on a book buying ban, which means another month of buying books I'm excited to read. Plus I got some really exciting books from publishers. I mean last month was even more exciting but still, some great books to share. Okay, let's stop wasting time. You're here for the books.

Bought


The Pearl Thief by Elizabeth Wein - My Review
My one preorder of the month. I really loved Code Name Verity so I was super excited to read the prequel about Julie back in Scotland. I didn't love tit as much but it was still a really good book.

Always and Forever, Lara Jean by Jenny Han - Add to Goodreads
I was late to the party for this series but I got here in time for the last book in the series. I really loved the first book so I am excited to listen to the audio for this one.

The Crown's Fate by Evelyn Skye - My Review
The first book in this series was one of my favorite audiobooks of last year and maybe ever. I was super excited to listen to the next one but sadly it was a bit underwhelming.

Allegedly by Tiffany D. Jackson - Add to Goodreads
I bought this one because the e-book was on sale on Amazon and I really wanted to read it. It sounds like a really interesting mystery and I can't wait to read it.


The Heart Collector by Melinda Salisbury Add to Goodreads
I'm totally a fan of this series so when I heard that there was going to be an additional collection of short stories that involved the history and mythology of the series I knew I needed to get it.

Flame in the Mist by Renee Ahdieh - Add to Goodreads
I have heard amazing things about this book and so I picked it up with a birthday gift card I had. I mean I loved Renee's first series so I'm sore this will be just as great.

I Am Princess X by Cherie Priest - Add to Goodreads
I have been wanting to read this book for a long time and so I also bought a copy of this with my gift card. I mean the paperback was only $7 so how could I not?

For Review


Murder, Magic, and What We Wore by Kelly Jones - Add to Goodreads
Just seeing that title probably you know why I want to read this book. Murder and magic. But this is a historical fantasy set in Victorian England which is totally my favorite thing.

Odd & True by Cat Winters - Add to Goodreads
I need to read more Cat Winters. I've loved the books from her I have read ands she has some I'm sure I would love but I haven't read that many. I picked this one up on Netgalley and I am super excited.

As You Wish by Chelsea Sedoti - Add to Goodreads
I picked this up because it's about a town in the desert where everyone gets one wish that comes true and then bad things happens. The main character wants to change that.



Nyxia by Scott Reintgen - Add to Goodreads
I'm a big fan of science fiction, especially ones that sound like space operas and that's exactly what this one sounds like. Plus I think there may be some drama.

The Suffering Tree by Elle Cosimano Add to Goodreads
This book sounds totally amazing. It sounds like a really cool historical mystery which is totally up my alley. I'm a part of the blog tour for this next month and I'm excited.

The League of American Traitors by Matthew Landis - Add to Goodreads
There has never been a more me book. I mean it's historical mystery that is pitched as Hamilton meets National Treasure. I can't wait to read it!

Those are the books that I got in May. What books did you get? Are you excited for any of these? Leave me a comment with your thoughts. Thanks for stopping by and HAPPY READING!
