Added to the Bookshelf - 2/24/13





Sharing the week's bookish news and the books & bookish goodies that I've bought, borrowed, won, or been gifted and have added to my bookshelves over the past week!


(Inspired by Mailbox Monday, IMM, Clock Rewinders and the like)


Notes From Melissa:

Things are not looking like they will ever slow down at work...I think I just need to accept the fact that I won't have as much time to read, review, blog and comment as I used to...but I promise to make an effort to come visit you all as much as I can!

Have a great week everyone!

      6. Holy Mother of God, that's a huge list of freebies! I don't know which one I should be more excited about: Sky on Fire or the box of ARCs you got - both of them look awesome!

        (I haven't read Monument 14 yet but I started listening to the audio book a few weeks ago and it sounded really good)
