Stacking the Shelves (23)

Stacking the Shelves (hosted by Tynga’s Reviews) is a weekly meme in which bloggers share the books they buy, borrow, and receive.

Borrowed:

The Infinite Moment of Us by Lauren Myracle – Such a pretty cover, oh my god. I really hope I like this book, because it’s one of those books I would buy JUST for the cover.

Won:

Snapshot by Angie Stanton (via Story Crush, thanks!)
Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson (via These Flying Pages, thank you!) – I’m so excited to start reading this. I’ve heard SO many people say they love it.

For Review:

The Blue-Eyed General by Rebecca Inman – I’ve already started reading this and love it so far. 😀


A week or so ago I got Gris Grimly’s Frankenstein from the library and started reading it. The other day I got on Goodreads to add it to my currently reading and noticed, to my dismay, that it is merged with the original Frankenstein. Okay, I know it’s technically just a different version of the novel, but this annoys me so much. I can’t acknowledge the fact that I’m reading the graphic novel (or rate or review it, for that matter) without completely uprooting my Frankenstein ratings and everything. UGH! I’ve seen tons of novel to graphic novel adaptations that are split apart. I don’t understand why this one isn’t either. It’s even more stupid because on Gris Grimly’s author page the book doesn’t come up as his graphic novel. It shows the original novel. What’s the point of that? Bah!
 
Also, I just saw that Penguin Teen Australia is publishing this pretty hardcover version of The Fault in Our Stars. I love it so much. I NEED IT!

Isn’t that beautiful? Oh!

  1. Second Chance Summer!!! It will break your heart but so worth the ugly cry. Do it! Infinite Moment however was not a fave of mine. I reviewed it so when you’re done check it out.

  2. I love the cover for The Infinite Moment of Us, too. I’ve heard mixed things, but I am hoping to love it.

    Also, oh my gosh, those TFIOS books are gorgeous!

  3. Great haul this week! I’m dying to read The Infinite Moment of Us, I look at it every time I’m at the book store! Second Chance Summer is also on my TBR.

    I’m loving the cover of The Fault in Our Stars, I can’t say I was a huge fan of the US cover, but the story was really good so that made up for it. This cover, though…LOVE!

    Here’s my STS this week!

    • Absolutely. I liked the US cover well enough, but this one just blows me away. I’m going to have to buy it eventually. I hope it’s not limited.

  4. Great books! I really want that UK version of The Fault in Our Stars! Do you know where I could buy it? Happy reading!

  5. I also got The Infinite Moment of Us from the library this week! I hope it’s as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside, too. I read Second Chance Summer this summer (haha.) and I loved it! I hope you enjoy it as well! Looking forward to your thoughts on these books 🙂

  6. Gaaahhh! That TFioS looks soo cute. To be honest, I was never a fan of the original cover, so this is definitely an improvement. Gris Grimly’s Frankenstein is on my TBR list. It just looked so great!
