Stacking the Shelves: Reaping the Runaway Spider Queen

Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews to showcase all the books we got in the past week. Those can be bought, won, gifted, for review, borrowed, print or ebooks... no matter, just share what you got :)

This week was pretty good! I unexpectedly won a book, and in case you hadn't noticed, I now have a shiny new banner, blog button (right sidebar) and new social media icons :) I'll also have a giveaway post up later today or tomorrow ;)

On to the books, though!

Won

Reaping Me Softly, by Kate Evangelista

Bought

The Runaway Queen, by Cassandra Clare & Maureen Johnson
Spider Wars, by Angela Carlie

Freebie

Catalyst, by Jennifer Snyder

Catalyst was free on Amazon yesterday, I don't know if it still is but I suppose so. Check first, though.

That's it :) Only ebooks this week... I'm still waiting for a hardcover and a paperback to arrive *sigh*
Have you read any of the books I got? Do I need to give one priority? And what did you add to your shelves this week?

Waiting on Wednesday: Reaping Me Softly, by Kate Evangelista

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme created by Jill at Breaking The Spine to showcase books we can't wait to get our greedy bookish fingers on. Here's my pick this week:



Expected release: October 30th, 2012
Publisher: Omnific Publishing
Format: Paperback

Goodreads Description:
Ever since a near-death-experience on the operating table, seventeen-year-old Arianne Wilson can see dead people. Just as she’s learned to accept her new-found talents, she discovers that the boy she’s had a crush on since freshman year, Niko Clark, is a Reaper.

At last they have something in common, but that doesn’t mean life is getting any easier. All while facing merciless bullying from the most powerful girl in school, Arianne’s world is turned upside down after Niko accidentally reaps the soul of someone she loves. This sends them both into a spiral that threatens to end Arianne’s life. But will Niko break his own Reaper’s code to save her? And what would the consequences be if he did?



I discovered this one when the cover was revealed last week. It's so gorgeous! I love reaper books and I'm curious to see how the theme is handled in this one and who that person Niko accidentally reaps is. I also enjoy reading about characters who have to deal with divided loyalties, so I think this one will be a great read :)

What are your thoughts on my pick, and what are you anxiously waiting for? Link me up in the comments :)
