State of the Stack (Feb. 28, 2012)

This is my third State of the Stack post. It is my way to keep track of my review books and to hopefully reduce the stack that I have waiting for me. Here is my Review Books Spreadsheet.


Here is my physical review stack:

This month there are seventeen books on the stack. 

Here are the review books waiting for me on my Kindle:

Even though it doesn't look like it, I am keeping up with my review commitments. I read nine books from my review stack this month. Click on the title to see my review for:

• Glow by Amy Kathleen Ryan (YA)
• Forbidden by Syrie James and Ryan James (YA)
• Fury of Fire by Coreene Callahan
• Friends with Boys by Erin Faith Hicks (YA)
• Witchful Thinking by H. P. Mallory
• Between the Duke and the Deep Blue Sea by Sophia Nash
• When the Sea Is Rising Red by Cat Hellisen (YA)
• Touchstone by Melanie Rawn
• Darkride by Laura Bradley Rede (YA)

Of course, I couldn't have a month when I didn't add to the stack. I got 10 more books for review (links go to Amazon). 

Ebooks

• Until Next Time by Amy Lignor (blog tour; YA, Jan. 24; My post goes up April 12)
• The Prophet by Amanda Stevens (NetGalley; Adult, April 24)
• Grave Refrain by Sarah M. Glover (Publisher; Adult, Feb. 14))

Amazon Vine

• Friends with Boys by Erin Faith Hicks (YA, Feb. 28)
• Between the Duke and the Deep Blue Sea by Sophia Nash (Adult, Feb. 28)
• Loss by Jackie Morse Kessler (YA, March 20)
• The Cowboy Takes a Bride by Lori Wilde (Adult, March 27)

Other Print Books

• The China Gambit by Allan Topol (Publicist; Adult, Jan. 1)
• The Man from Primrose Lane by James Renner (Publicist; Adult, Feb. 28)
• Shadow & Bone by Leigh Bardugo (Publisher; YA, June 5)

March looks like it will be a busy month. My goal is to accept 6 review books a month (3 YA and 3 Adult). However, March has nine books on the list. One will be published on the 15th, three on the 20th, and 5 on the 27th. They all sound really good but I need to start reading. 

I am just at the beginning of Dark Eyes by William Richter. It will be published on March 15.

What is the state of your stack?
