Stacking The Shelves: Merry Christmas, Indeed!!

   Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme, hosted by Tynga's Reviews. It's all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves; books you buy in physical stores or online; books you borrow from friends or the library, gifts, and e-books!

   I can't believe Christmas is behind us, you guys! There's only 5 days left until New Year's Eve. That's just craaazy!!

   I didn't expect to receive a lot this month especially since the mail carriers are always so busy this time of the year.

   But I practically almost got all of this month's book mail in one day. It was crazy! First it was Fedex, then UPS, and, finally, USPS.


^^ Why can't it be like that everyday?! ^^




   I was such a happy camper when I got this package from Harper. I actually won The Girl From Everywhere so I'm giving away my duplicate copy on Twitter along with Away We Go (You can enter here).




   I was so mind-blown away when I received Burning Glass and Unhooked in my Kindle because they're one of my most anticipated books of 2016. I want to start them like RIGHT NOW!!!


MERRY CHRISTMAS!! πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„ • I'm in love with all my presents (books not included)!! I wasn't expecting to get an iPhone 5s but now I won't have to struggle with the camera of my iPod because it doesn't have it on the back lol. And the camera of the iPhone is such a good quality πŸ™‰πŸ™‰πŸ™‰ • My sister got me The Hunger Games movies!! πŸ™‰πŸΉπŸ˜ She made a Harry Potter unicorn blood in a vile necklace, which I'm already wearing! There's also wood. I got wood for Christmas guys πŸ˜‚ I told her how I love the Nook and Burrow wooden bookmarks. But that she could try to find the wood shapes and do it herself since I love doing DIY stuff anyway. But she wanted me to do it lol. They're too wide so I think I'll cut them in half. She also gave me a Voldermort pop figure which didn't survive the attack from my dog πŸ™ƒπŸ˜  It's okay. I'm getting a new one so I'll laugh about it later. • My mom got me these warm sweater shirts and scarves, which I love!! πŸ’• • #Christmas #YA #Books #bookish #TheHungerGames #epicreads #yalovin #bibliophile #bookaholic #TheRavenBoys #booknerdigans #bookworm #booknerd #book #iPhone #ChristmasEve #fangirl #instabook #bookporn #booklove
