Stacking the Shelves: a Mishmash

Hosted by: Tynga's Reviews

Young Adult 
 



















Midwinterblood is the 2014 Printz award winner, and I am very eager to read this one. I have heard the plot is very unique and the book is mysterious and hard to describe. I know it contains many different characters from different times and their stories end up overlapping.
I have yet to read any Gayle Forman, but this is the second book of hers that I own. Along with Just One Day, I own If I Stay which I plan to read before seeing the movie.
Code Named Verity has been on my radar for a while, and I finally got around to picking it up. This book sounds full of girl power; it's about a girl spy who gets captured in WWII.

Classics 
 


Villette is the second Charlotte Bronte Book I own, but I have not read any of her works yet.
I love this anniversary edition of Fahrenheit 451. I read this book in high school, but would love to reread it soon.

For School
 

I only have one lit class next semester, which I'm a little bummed about, but these two are on the reading list, along with John Green's Papertowns which I am excited to read in a classroom setting, and is a book I was already planning on rereading this year anyway.

  1. I hope you enjoy the books you got Mallory! :) I really need to read Code Name Variety. I like the cover image you have posted, versus the original one.

  2. Nice haul, The Time Machine really catches my eye with that eery cover. What's it about?

    1. It is a science fiction novel about a man who invents a time machine, and that's all I know so far! It's really short though.
      Thanks for stopping by!
