Stacking the YA Shelves (May 26, 2013)

Posted by Kathy Martin at 6:30 AM
Tynga of Tynga's Reviews hosts this meme to spotlight the books we receive each week. I guarantee that your TBR pile will grow when you see all the wonderful books everyone gets.

 I had another big week but most of what I got were Kindle books. Here is my haul:
I got three review books this week. First, I got a print ARC of Horde by Ann Aguirre from Macmillan Children's Publishing Group. I have read the first two books in this dystopian series and need to find out what happens next. The book will be released on October 29.

I was also approached by author Sherry Soule to review her books. She offered to send me eARCs but, since the books have already been published, I chose to buy Kindle copies of Moonlight Mayhem and Beautifully Broken. It is my intention to read and review them in July. 

I continued to do Kindle shopping and chose some books that I have been wanting to read.
Golden by Jessi Kirby
The Summer I Became a Nerd by Leah Rae Miller
The Faerie Guardian by Rachel Morgan 
Werewolf Dreams by Katie Lee O'Guinn
Reboot by Amy Tintera
Lost & Found by Nicole Williams

The final book I got is for my summer professional reading.
Book Love by Penny Kittle is all about encouraging adolescents to read or keep reading. This is something I struggle with each year in my high school media center.

What did you get this week?
