Top Ten Books I Resolve to Read in 2013


Top Ten Tuesday is a meme created by The Broke and the Bookish

These are books that I have sitting in my bookshelves patiently waiting to be read.  I'm so far behind that's not even funny!  I am determined, whoever to get caught up (see here if you doubt me).

I have a signed ARC of this book!

I need to know the ending!

Love Daughter of Smoke and I'm sure this one is just as good.

I love Julie's writing, I need to read this one :)

With the conclusion coming soon, I need to get caught up!

No explanation needed, right?

I've heard wonderful things about this one.

Ditto

Ditto again. Really!  In so many best of 2012 lists!

Just the cover makes me want to read it :)

What is in your Top Ten this week?

Stacking the Shelves #30


Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews in which we feature all the book goodness that we received, borrowed or purchased during the previous week. All links are to Goodreads.

Hi gorgeous people!  I skipped Stacking the Shelves last week, well....because life happens and I was too busy cleaning and cooking (I'll have a post about that soon!)  Here's two weeks worth of books; and let me tell you that I must have been a pretty good girl this year because Santa outdid himself! Thank you Santa! (*wink*)


Purchased for Kindle


Forever My Girl by Heidi McLaughlin - I saw this book in Goodreads and couldn't help but get it.  It sounds so good!


For Review



Just for Now by Rosalind James - I got this one for a blog tour (coming next week), looks good, right? 

Nobody by Jennifer Lynn Barnes - I received this ARC for review this week, it sounds really interesting.  Thank you to Egmont for the opportunity.

Gifts




As I said, Santa (AKA hubby) outdid himself, he actually read the blog to come up with these!  Let me explain what you're looking at:


Iron Fey gift set (books 1-4) by Julie Kagawa - I already read the series and I have them all for Kindle, but now I have lovely paper copies.  


Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore - I adored Graceling and Fire and I've been dying to get my hands on this one.


My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick - I've heard amazing things about this one, it looks so sweet :)


Matched by Ally Condie - I want to know what the fuss is all about!


Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor  - This was my favorite read last year, but I didn't have my own copy. Now I do!


Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein - I've also seen wonderful reviews of this one.


Defiance by C.J. Redwine  - Such a lovely cover, can't wait!


Cinder by Marissa Meyer - Another book that everyone seems to love.


Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn - A co-worker recommended this one and although the cover is a bit off-putting to me, I'm giving it a try. 



I also got these from hubby, my sister, and my mom:

Movies: The Help, Julie & Julia, Becoming Jane and Jane Eyre

CDs: Kelly Clarkson greatest hits, Maroon 5, Two Thalia (Mexican artist) CDs, Habitame Siempre and Primera Fila

A whole year of Paulo Coehlo quotes

And from my lovely son 'C': 

Isn't it sweet?

That's it for me, what's stacking your shelves this week?  Let me know if you've read any of these!
