Huzzah to Book Binging! There is nothing quite as tasty as a good book! If you can’t tell I have a serious book buying and acquiring addiction! Heck, I don’t know a book blogger that doesn’t. If I don’t grab at least as many books as there are number of days in a week I start to go through withdrawals.
So what’s more fun than jumping around and seeing what everyone else has added to their shelves for the week? For that reason I link up two these two lovely ladies:
The Sunday Post hosted by Kimberly @ Kimba The Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
Stacking the Shelves hosted by Tynga @ Tynga’s Reviews.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Review Books!
Some times I get to the middle of a new week and I’m already wanting to check myself into the loony ward or into Book Buyers Anonymous. I know there is no way I can read as many books in a week as I acquire but I figure hey…I’m saving them for retirement.
Sorry Goodreads is down right now so I couldn’t put in any goodreads links tonight!! Why am I totally going through goodreads crack shake withdrawals!!??
The Immortal Crown by Richelle Mead | Amazon (Adult)
The Princess in the Opal Mask by Jenny Lundquist | Amazon | (YA)
Mortal Danger by Ann Aguirre | Amazon | (YA)

Great haul, Tabitha. I’m jealous of your Immortal Crown copy – though, I don’t know why, considering I haven’t read Immortal Gods yet. Lol.
Anyway, happy reading!

Agree! I still have’t read the first but I have been meaning to so this is probably the pressure that I need.

Nice book haul this week! I really have to get reading the Age of X series. Gonna put my name on the holds list for the audiobook at the library!
Hope you’ll enjoy The Remaining, it’s like classic Walking Dead style zombie story, nothing terribly original but that’s not necessarily a bad thing for this particular genre. I really had a fun time with it.

I always love a good zombie novel now and then so I am sure I will definitely enjoy it. I have even read GAmeboard of the Gods yet!

My co-blogger has been raving about The Immortal Crown! 😀 Mortal Danger looks awesome, as well as Princess in the Opal Mask. I really want to read The Assassin’s Curse as well! And you attended signings–glad you had fun! Happy reading, Tabitha! <3

Ooh, so many of these I like. Cassandra Rose Clarke is really good — her YA books aren’t my favourites, but I do enjoy them. Martha Wells is just great. And I’ve got Rachel Bach’s books to read too, must get round to them. Hope you enjoy all these!
My StS.

I absolutely adore the Rachel Bach books, now I totally have to read the ones under her other name. I havent read any CRClarke yet but hopefully I will enjoy them 🙂 i hear I might like her adult book better so we will see.

Cait @ Notebook Sisters
Ohh…so much awesome here. XD Eeep! YOU GOT TO MEET AUTHORS. SO AWESOME. And I’ve noticed a few bloggers saying Goodreads is down. NOOOO. That is the worse thing ever. I can live without a lot of sites on the internet, but Goodreads? I need it in my life all. the. time. Anyway, I hope it gets fixed. 😐 And don’t send the bug to Australia. Haha! It’s still working for me. 😉 My StS!

It must have been back up by the time you checked it was down for such a huge chunk of time the other day I was going thru total crack shake withdrawals! The book signings were totally fun. I am sad there aren’t more adult SFF book signings but YA is the super popular books right now I guess.

Nathan (@reviewbarn)
Will a Rebel Belle, he cries MORE MORE MORE!.
First saw that on Rabid Reads and it is still all I can think of when I see the title. I kinda wanna read the Clark series too, wish I could find it on audio as that is how I read YA mostly these days.
Nathan (@reviewbarn) recently posted…Dystopia Review: ‘Astra’ by Naomi Foyle
Tabitha (Pabkins)
I haven’t listened to many YA on audio because they take too long that way. I can read one in like 4 to 6 hours where the audio will take 7 to 10 and still longer days wise because I just dont listen as welll as I read.

Saving them for retirement? Yes! That is an excellent answer. I will definitely be using that one in the future. Not that you need an excuse to buy anything by Diana Wynne Jones. 🙂

I really need to read the first two books before I can get to Dreams of gods and monsters. Mortal Danger does sound fabulous but all of these do, now if they can all live up to it is the question.

Jessica @ Rabid Reads
I am SO jealous that you got Mortal Danger! I can’t wait to see what you think about it. Also excited to see what you think of The Princess in the Opal Mask–have had that one on my wishlist since it came out, but haven’t heard much about it. And don’t even talk to me about the Goodreads blackout . . . I nearly lost my mind, LOL. Excellent haul, Tabitha 😉

Nick @ Nick's Book Blog
Ahh! So jealous of Mortal Danger. I can’t wait to read that book and that cover is just gorgeous. I hadn’t heard of The Princess in the Opal Mask before but that sounds like an interesting read and what a pretty cover.
I hope you’ll enjoy The Assassin’s series. I loved the first book but haven’t read the 2nd one just yet.
Enjoy your lovely books this week! Happy reading! 🙂

Tabitha (Pabkins)
The opal mask author lives around the corner from me! EVERYONE SEEMS TO BE EXCITED ABOUT MOrtal Danger which makes me worry a little. DARN CAPS LOCK IS CAUSing me trouble sorry. Time for a new keyboard perhaps. You know now I own four CRClarke books and havent even read one yet!

Kirsty-Marie
Ahhh, SO jealous of Mortal Danger, Revenge books are my type of reads (Heart-Shaped Bruise by Tanya Byrne is amazing, you should check that one out- one of my favourites) I’m saving a few for retirement, I’ve had some on my shelf since 2006 that I haven’t read. though probably will never read because my taste has changed since then. Poor books. Love your hair! 🙂
Kirsty-Marie recently posted…Stacking the Shelves (#42) & Recap
Tabitha (Pabkins)
Thanks so glad you like the hair, i absolutely love it as well. It can look so punk when i spike it!
I really need to clean out my shelf of some of those books that I know I willl never read but then I get paranoid that my tastes will change again and that I will read them afterall. The best bet is to just keep them and double stack them in the back, i know that I mIght regret it if I got rid of them.
Totally send me the book recommendation on goodreads so It will save you as the recommender and I will snatch it up!

I’ve been very curious about the Assassin books, and love the covers on those. The Tough Guide to Fantasyland looks fun too…

I absolutely love the covers on the Assassins books as well. I am a huge fan of fully illustrated covers. I think photo covers should go the way of the dinosaurs.

I really need to read that Paradox trilogy! Everyone is raving about it recently!
Just read Among Thieves, which I liked, but was really about a 3.5 star read for me. The main character and I never quite gelled.

Tabitha (Pabkins)
I hear the second book to Among Thieves is better than the first. Since I know that going in I think I’ll like it more. I often experience that …liking the second book better if the first was a 3. I guess I’ll find out soon!
YES GOSH DAG NABIT YOU WASCILLY WABBIT READ THE PARADOX TRILOGY!!
