Stacking the Shelves (#25) - Book Bash Recap & Book Haul

Stacking the Shelves, which is hosted by Team Tynga's Reviews, is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This mean you can include books you buy in a physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course, ebooks.

Hi Lovelies!

So last weekend was Book Bash, which is an author event in Orlando, Florida. It was mine and Nahomi's first time in attending and we were super excited about going. However, after going to BEA in May, I was over the long lines and the standing around for hours on end, and so I was a little tired. Luckily, I only had 5 authors I wanted to see, which were: Christina Lauren, Jennifer L. Armentrout, Alice Clayton, Cora Carmack, and Colleen Hoover. 

I already had the majority of the books I needed for the signings so I only needed to buy 2 books and they were: 
Sweet Filthy Boy by Christina Lauren
All Lined Up by Cora Carmack

Nahomi and I were lucky enough to be invited to a Blogger Meet and Tweet hosted by Berkley and NAL, which is an imprint of Penguin. 
It was a really fun event and we managed to meet with some other bloggers and meet with some of the wonderful people at Berkley and NAL. I was also introduced to the editor of Brighton Walsh, whose book Caged in Winter I'm anxiously anticipating. 

They also handed out some book goodies and I'm really excited about starting these pretties.
All You Need is Love by Marie Force
All of You by Christina Lee
Frayed by Kim Karr
Since I Saw You by Beth Kery
Melt into You by Roni Loren
Bound by Lorelei James
Virgin by Radhika Sanghani

And all those pretties came in one of these bags:

I managed to get some duplicates of some books so be prepare for some giveaways to be happening soon.

I was visiting with the boyfriend that weekend as well. And since he is the best ever, he put up with me needing to rush off to the event and to cut out time together short. It sucks even more since we are in long distance relationship and that was the first time we had seen each other in two months. But he the sweetest ever because he knows that I have no book shelves space left, he still made a stop at Barnes & Noble and got me this book: 
White Space by Ilsa J. Bick

Isn't he the best? He's just trying to sweeten me up so I move in with him but it working. He's ok with me spending my weekends at book events and stills buys me books? Sold!

Well that's it for me on my end. I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July and are enjoying the long weekend. And I can't wait to see what you added to your shelves!

  1. OOh nice! I don't think I've heard of Book Bash until now! Orlando though is pretty far away! Plus I'd be too tempted to need to visit Disney and Harry Potter World!

    My STS will be up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by then!

    Have a GREAT day!
