It's bright and colorful and not just normal colors so it should be easy to find at the airport!
Okay, really quick, here is a list of what you might have missed on the blog last week:

Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga's Reviews. It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. Once again I've got a lot of books, but like I mentioned above, it is to prepare for the book conventions I'm going to in March. I'll probably have another big haul next weekend because of the print on demand books that I'm still waiting to arrive. As usual I've downloaded way too many free e-books to really show you all of them.
E-galleys:

I had to download the first one from Netgalley as soon as I could, that is one I cannot wait for. I loved the first book so much! The 2nd one I downloaded before my e-galley could expire and I'm so glad I did because I finished it yesterday and loved it! The last one I received from the author again to do a promo tour and review of. I can't wait to see how this series I have loved so far will end.
Physical books:
First a books for trade score! I love Amanda Hawking's Trylle series, so I had been excited by any new book by her. I didn't get to my e-galley before it expired, and then in a review I heard this was related to the Trylle series, so I put up a big ARC I had to get it.
These are all books I purchased from the bookstore where I work. I've read the bottom one, but loved it, need to review it soon. The top four are all new to me, and Riveted of course just came out on Tuesday. The top four are all authors that I can meet next month at the two conventions I'm going to. I've met Jay Crownover before, but will definitely get more autographed from her!
This is my haul from the Half Price Bookstore stop I made this week. While I've read the bottom two, and listed to Wallbanger, all except for the very top book are for getting autographs at the book conventions. The top one is a third in a series I've really liked, so when I saw it at the HPB, I had to get it.
So, I read this one from a free ebook, and just did it because it is a local Kansas City author that will be at the Kinky in Kansas City convention in a couple weeks. I had to buy it to get it autographed, even though I guess she will only now be walking around the convention since she couldn't get books in time to sell. But I loved this one, especially all the KC references, like about Eric Hosmer, one of our Royals baseball team players.
Those are my scores for the week. What did you add to your shelves?
Awesome Haul of Books this week. I hope you love all of your new books. I like your haircut.

Thanks! So glad you could stop by!
DeleteThat's awesome you're going to Apollycon this year. I hope you have a blast. Love the new suitcase. If you can bring two for free, I would totally do that so you have room for all of your books! I just recently was gifted Wallbanger, so I need to read that ASAP. It's been on my wish list FOREVER.

Wallbanger is so much fun! Of course all of Clayton's books are so far that I've read. I can't wait for Apollycon! Thanks for visiting!
DeleteI had no idea that Freeks was related to the Trylle series! I just finished the trilogy this month. I'll have to pick it up once I finish reading the Kanin Chronicles! I've been wanting to read Royally Screwed for a while now. I'm looking forward to your review. :) Great haul this week Lisa! And I love the hair. :D
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize it either till I saw a review. I loved the Trylle series and the Kanin Chronicles, so I'm looking forward to more from this world. Royally Screwed was so good. I'm hooked on the author now! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteFreeks is a great read, but its not linked to the Trylle series, at least that's the picture I got from it. It's set in a different world.
DeleteI read someone else's review that said it was part of that series. Hmm. I'm still eager to read it since I love her writing.
DeleteI have Freezes as well. Not read her other series but am excited to get to this one. Your hair looks great. Love the suitcase too.
ReplyDeleteAmanda Hocking is a favorite author of mine for all the books I've read so far. Thanks for visiting!
DeleteI love the hair. I used to dye my hair red all the time, but it's been years since I've been red. And that suitcase is awesome---I agree that it will be perfect because it will be so easy to spot!
ReplyDeleteNicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction
I've been red for a few years, although my hair had really lost most of the color recently since I hadn't been to get it done since September. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI loved Riveted by Jay Crownover! So good!! And I am really Royally Matched now. Royally screwed was one of my favorite books of 2016!
ReplyDeleteLove the suitcase. I am going to Europe for 2 weeks this summer and need new luggage!
Have a great week!
I am so excited for it, but I've listened to all her other books as audiobooks before I've read them, however this one isn't available from my library yet, so I may be just reading it first. I can't wait for Royally Matched! I've got it on order.
DeleteWow, Europe! That will be an awesome trip! So jealous! Thanks so much for visiting!
Daughter of the Pirate King looks fun, and I hope you like Freeks!
ReplyDeleteDaughter of the Pirate King was wonderful! And I can't wait to get to Freeks. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteLove the new hair colour! I used to dye my hair those kinds of colours. Mini reviews are useful as a catch up tool aren't they! I'm getting caught up with last years reviews and I'm onto DEcember now which is great! Soon I'll be doing this year's reviews! Yea! Enjoy your book haul!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I just love the red. I always wished I was a redhead instead of just a brunette. My hairstylist takes it a more unique color than realistic sometimes, but I still love it. I've got some mini-reviews to do soon! Thanks for visiting!
DeleteLove your hair color. So pretty. Sounds like you are going to have an amazing time on your trip. I hear you on keeping up and getting the gym. I am sorely behind as well, I just can't seem to get focused, this winter is killing me.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I cannot wait for the trip, it is kind of taking up all my brain right now. And money it seems. I've just got to get some time to get to the gym! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteThat suitcase would definitely be easy to spot at the airport! And wow, so many new books :D Happy reading, Lisa :D
ReplyDeleteBrittany @ Brittany's Book Rambles
My other suitcase is orange, totally stand out color! :-) I've got to stop buying books though! I'm going broke. :-) Thanks for visiting!
DeleteI love the suitcase and your hair looks adorbs! Sounds like the trip to Orlando is gearing up to be lots of fun! Have a great week :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! The Orlando trip is so close, yet so far away! I can't wait! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteNice job with the suitcase! I hope you have a great time at ALA when it comes around. I need to read Returned, hopefully soon! I hope you enjoy all of your new books, Lisa. =)
ReplyDeleteAlyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Well, this isn't actually the ALA convention, I wish I could go to that one. This is ApollyCon, mostly romance authors, some YA as well. Thanks for visiting!
