Filling The Bookcase is pretty much Stacking The Shelves or Mailbox Monday but with a different name. Please visit both of the host and join in on the fun!
More books! One day my house will be nothing but stacks and stacks of books. And I will not even regret it.
Additions to the bookcase
The Friday Society by Adrienne Kress
The first line in this book: And then there was an explosion.
Splintered by A.G. Howard
This book is supposed to be a twisted retelling of Alice in Wonderland so I am very excited to read this. I have heard some mixed reviews for this book but I think I will enjoy it.
This Is Not A Test by Courtney Summers
I have read many reviews that state that this book is a zombie book that is not just a zombie book. I am excited to find out what that means…
Unwind by Neal Shusterman
This was a used bookstore buy. (Only $2.50!) The synopsis makes the book seem very creepy. I am interested in reading about the dystopian world Shusterman creates!
Kira-kira by Cynthia Kadohata
I have known about this book for years. I came across the title awhile searching the internet and forgot about it the next day. When I saw it on the shelf at the used bookstore I knew it was destiny!
Bad Girls Don’t Die by Katie Alender
I bought this because of the title and cover. But it does seem interesting 🙂
Little House In The Big Woods, Little House On The Prairie, By The Shores Of Silver Lake, The Long Winter by Slaura Ingalls Wilder
I read Little House On The Praire when I was young but I never knew it was a series until recently. I realize the I still don’t own all the books but I will try finding them 🙂
Additions to the eBookcase
That Time Of The Month by Emily Shaffer
The author describes it as a romp through chick-lit so I immediately bought it 🙂
One Hit Wonder by Denyse Cohen
It was on the Kindle Daily Deals list and I was interested in the music element of the story so I decided to give it a try.
MILA 2.0 Origins: The Fire by Debra Driza
I read this novella already and I enjoyed it. I am eagerly waiting for the full book, MILA 2.0
The Crimson Hunt by Victoria H. Smith
I received this to review for a book tour! The synopsis makes the book interesting 🙂
Stitched by Samantha Durante
I received this book to review for a Valentine Day book tour 🙂 I am intrigued by the premise.
Library
Beauty Queens by Libba Bray
After reading The Diviners I just knew that I would have to read Bray’s other books!
The Miseducation Of Cameron Post by Emily M. Danforth
After reading a positive review for this book I immediately put this on my hold list at the library. The book just became available to me so I am very excited!
Again, I got this book because a reviewer that I respect wrote a positive review for this 🙂 It seems very fun.
I am curious to see how amazing the “most amazing work of literature” really is.
Netgalley
The S-Word by Chelsea Pitcher
The book protagonist, Angie seems very admirable from what the synopsis tells us.
The Golden Twine (Book 1 in the Cat’s Cradle series) by Jo Rioux
This graphic novel sounds very interesting. I have glanced through the pages and I have to say, the art is beautiful 🙂
Did you get any new additions to your collection?
book adoration 
Every time you publish a post with several books in it I feel like I just tell you which ones I loved (and consequently, which ones I hope you will love as well). So that’s what I’m going to do now, because this post has so many wonderful books in it! Unwind, Beauty Queens, Kira-Kira, Dragon Slippers, The Great Gatsby, This is Not a Test… all superb! Looking forward to your thoughts on them!
Thank you 🙂 I have read a few passages from all these books(it is a bad habit) and I love the books already. This Is Not A Test really stands out! Beauty Queens is hilarious.
I’ve been really wanting to read The Friday Society (love that opening line) so I’m excited to see what you think of it! I also adore the Dragon Slippers trilogy! 🙂
The Friday Society has one of the best opening lines EVER! You adored Dragon Slippers? More reason to read it!
Lots of good books…ENJOY!!

“More books! One day my house will be nothing but stacks and stacks of books.” sounds like heaven 😀
congrats with the new addition to your collection!!!
Lottie, we enjoy the same kind of books! I read the Little House series when I was a little girl and loved it. I bought a few of the books for my niece for Christmas. I recently bought This is Not a Test, and have heart that it is an excellent read. I also can’t wait to read Unwind 🙂 Maybe we can do a buddy read sometime!
Oh, yes we should! Unwind has such an interesting premise. It would make a great buddy read 😀
I loved ALL the Little House books growing up. When I was younger I probably liked the younger ones best. But when I reread them in middle and high school, I love the ones where Laura was older and courting far better. I’m sure you won’t believe what you were missing previously!
This comment just proves how timeless this series is! I can’t believe that I never knew this was a series! Well, as they always say: Better to start later than never 😀
I love The Friday Society! It was one of my favorite books from last year. The characters are all so original.
I haven’t read Dragon Slippers, but everything else I’ve read by Jessica Day George is amazing and cute!
I am not a fan, however, of The Great Gatsby but now is probably a great time to read it since the movie is coming out soo!
I never knew that a movie was coming out! This just proves that I am terrible at keeping up with things ^^” I am pretty interested in The Friday Society. Heard that there was a lot of girl power!
I’ve been seeing Splintered EVERYWHERE! Looking forward to your review to see how it goes 🙂
Been meaning to read The Great Gatsby for ages but I keep pushing it down my tbr pile 😛
I hope you enjoy Kira-Kira, I’ve read Cynthia Kadohata’s other book, Weedflower, years ago and it was a decent read 🙂
I think I have read a book called Weedflower before. I have a vague memory of a book with a similar premise…
You’ve got some great titles. I’m tempted to read Splintered. The Little House on the Prairie series were my favorite as a kid. I read The Great Gatsby a few months back and thought it was okay. Enjoy your stash of books and thanks for visiting my blog!
Great book week. I love Little House!
2 Kids and Tired Books MM
So many books! Enjoy!
That’s a lot of books!! Oh my gosh you are so lucky 😛 I want to read The Friday Society sooo bad 🙂 it looks so good! I also want to read Beauty Queens and This is Not A Test! And Kira Kira was really good!
I just came across this, thank you so much for adding my book to your reading list!
