Stacking the Shelves #9

Meme Hosted by Tynga's Reviews

I'm back!! If you didn't know, I just spent the last two weeks in Florida. Ok ... you probably didn't know but you do now. I haven't been blogging for very long (well it doesn't feel like a long time), but it felt weird not to be blogging. Now I have to get back into the swing of things. 

I got a lot of books in the past two weeks. I was on holiday! It took a few manoeuvres to get them in the case but I managed it. So here we go:

For Review

• Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry *Goodreads*
• Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass #1) by Sarah J. Maas *Goodreads*

Thank you to Netgalley, Harlequin Teen and Bloomsbury UK!

Both these books look really good and I cannot wait to start them.

Bought

•  Darkness Before Dawn (Darkness before Dawn #1) by J.A. London *Goodreads*
• My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick *Goodreads*
• Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson *Goodreads*
• Dreamland by Sarah Dessen *Goodreads*
• Something Like Normal by Trish Doller *Goodreads*
• Keep Holding On by Susane Colasanti *Goodreads*

One of the downsides about living in the UK is a few of the books that I want to read are not published here. This means that I have to buy the american edition. Ok it is easy to do online but it was a nice experience to walk into a Barnes and Nobles (the one in Naples is pretty big too) and to see all these books on the shelf. My dad was paying so I lost a little restraint. I have already read Keep Holding On so expect a review some time soon.


For two days while I was in Florida, I went to Universal Studios. That mean Wizarding World! I was so excited and it is amazing. I have never been on a ride quite like Forbidden Journey (that is the ride inside Hogwarts castle). I hope to write a more detailed post at some point.

While I was there I got some goodies:

• Deathly Hallows key ring
• Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans (My second box)
• Exploding Bon Bons
• Sugar Quill
• Dr Seuss Ticket Holder (To hold my entrance ticket, Express pass and hotel key. I would have gotten a HP one but they didn't have them available in the shop I got this one in)
•  Plastic bag (This is the bag you get given at the till so technically I didn't buy it but I like the picture)
• Owl Messenger Bag (I saw this on the website and I wanted it for University)

Quite a lot of the goodies you could buy can also be found in the HP studio tour I went to in June. You can see my post for what I got there here.

  I managed to read 6 books while I was on holiday. I'd better get started on writing my reviews.

Hope you had a great week, or fortnight. I can't wait to see what you got.
