Stacking The Shelves [1]

Welcome to my very first Stacking The Shelves! :)
Stacking The Shelves, hosted by Tynga’s Reviews, is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!
So I went a little crazy this past week and bought lots of books and checked out A LOT of books from the library (most I probably won't even get to but I just like having them so no one else can haha!) Last Saturday was Wordstock here in Portland so I bought books there to get autographed and then I had to go to Powell's Book Store on Monday when I was exploring downtown and got some books. Here are the ones I bought:

Wordstock purchases

1. Things I Can't Forget by Miranda Kenneally (signed!)
2. Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins (signed!)
3. If I Stay by Gayle Forman (signed!)
4. Heads in Beds by Jacob Tomsky (signed!)
5. Insomnia by J.R. Johansson (signed!)
6. Just One Year by Gayle Forman (signed!)
7. Unremembered by Jessica Brody (signed!)

2. What Would Emma Do? by Eileen Cook
3. The 100 by Kass Morgan (not exactly my type of book so I'll probably just wait for the tv show)

  2. Looks like we have a ton in common, looking at your book choices. :) I'm going to have to follow you, based on that alone! :)

    I see you bought Lola... have you read Anna and the French Kiss? I think I liked that one more, but I did enjoy Lola!

    And Stephen King! :)

    Check out my StS!

    1. I have read Anna (I own it as well). Lola wasn't as good but I want to re-read both and see if my opinions have changed!
