Stacking the Shelves is a weekly event hosted on Tynga’s Reviews. The Sunday Post is a weekly event hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. Here we can share what new books we’ve picked up this past week as well as other interesting book news.
I didn’t bring too many books home from the library this week (which is a good thing!!!). But I still do have two books I’m borrowing.
Library:
Pivot Point by Kasie West
I loved The Distance Between Us (my review), but I wasn’t sure if I would like this one by West, even though I’ve heard really good things. But I decided to be brave and give it a shot.
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
I actually picked this up as an audiobook. Everyone says this book is really good, so I decided that nows the time to give it a try. Also – pretty cover!!
Life Tidbits
- So my mother, and one of my best friends are both in Florida! And I’m stuck in Syracuse with these ridiculously cold weather. 🙂
- I have NO plans (see above) this weekend, but I’m really excited about it. I just want to borrow under the covers and read. And maybe watch TV.
- I’ve started to re-watch Veronica Mars (I need to get ready for the movie) because it’s available for Amazon Prime members. I’m really enjoying it. Why can’t I have Veronica’s snarky attitude? Also, I totally forgot what a major jerk Logan was in the first few episodes. And Duncan is totally not swoon worthy. He’s got no personality. I mean, guys can be nice and still have a personality.
- I know that you’re not supposed to go grocery shopping when you’re hungry, but I totally failed yesterday. You should see the amount of junk food I brought home. Actually, no you shouldn’t. I’m too embarrassed. 🙂
Yay for Pivot Point! I really hope you like it. 😀
First off, you’re right, THE NIGHT CIRCUS is amazing!
And I totally agree with you about Duncan being super boring and unappealing! I think the moment I really fell in love with Logan was when he broke down crying in Veronica’s arms while searching for his mom. God, I just wanted to kiss him. Is that a weird reaction to have to a crying guy?? haha

I absolutely adore Pivot Point. I hope you like it too.
I loved Veronica Mars she was like a modern day Nancy Drew with attitude! Though I was disappointed with season three and it’s arch!
I really loved Pivot Point, it’s amazing! I haven’t watched Veronica Mars before but I’ve heard great things, it really needs to be on Netflix!
I have been wanting both of those books!
And that sounds like a perfect weekend.
Pivot Point is on my list! I’m looking forward to your review 🙂

PP looks good. I hope you can stop by mine.
I loved The Distance Between Us too. And I have Pivot Point, I just havent gotten around to reading it yet. I go to the grocery store hungry all the time. It can’t be helped…that’s just when it’s convenient to go. 🙂 Happy reading!

I never actually saw the Veronica Mars series, except some episodes when they played them on Soapnet on the weekends…but Soapnet is now gone! Alas….
I’ve been DVR-ing Gilmore Girls, which I missed before, too. I know, not the same, but they were both on Soapnet, and now Gilmore Girls is on ABC Family at 11 a.m.
Enjoy your books….and here’s MY WEEKLY SUNDAY/MONDAY UPDATES
You know, I have The Night Circus but haven’t read it. I should get on it. Enjoy your haul! My STS
I never watched Veronica Mars and I didn’t know there was a movie. Ever since I quit getting Entertainment Weekly i miss all the entertainment news. lol I’ve found I should never go shopping hungry or take my kids with me. It’s bad enough when my husband goes. lol Have a great week!
Nice little book haul! Enjoy your reads! have a great week girl!
Here’s My Weekly Wrap-Up!
Naomi @ Nomi’s Paranormal Palace
I’ve heard such good things about Pivot Point. I plan on trying it soon. I actually tried The Night Circus audiobook last year and couldn’t get into it. I think the fact that Jim Dale was the narrator threw me off since I’m used to him doing Harry Potter audiobooks. I do hope you enjoy it though!
Great haul! I got Pivot Point for Christmas but still haven’t gotten to read that one, I’m really excited to because I’ve heard so many amazing things. I hope you enjoy your books 🙂 My STS.
Love THE NIGHT CIRCUS! So magical and descriptive. And yay for rewatching Veronica Mars! I finished rewatching the third season a few weeks ago, and I’m excited for the film and Veronica’s snark 🙂
So glad to hear that The Night Circus is amazing! I can’t wait to listen to it.
And seriously V. Mars is the best!
