Stacking the Shelves (9)
Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme, hosted by Tynga at Tynga’s Reviews, where bloggers can share the books and bookish items that we’ve bought, borrowed, or received each week.
This StS is for the past two weeks.

It’s Our Prom (So Deal With It) by Julie Anne Peters
I’m super excited to read Speechless and Crewel! And I just finished It’s Our Prom–it was the first book in my new feature called Blind Reads, where I read a book without knowing hardly anything about it! I’ll have my review up soon. And the biggest gift I got these past two weeks? I just found out I’m pregnant! Yay! My husband and I have been trying for the past couple of months, so we’re ecstatic.
What did you guys get this week? Let me know, or leave a link to your StS post (or IMM or any other alternative) in the comments and I’ll stop by your blog!
Be sure to check out my His Dark Materials Readalong and Giveaway, going on now!

September 1, 2012 at 1:03 pmWow! That's great for you, cheers! :D
P.S. I'm curious to see how it went with your blind read :)

September 1, 2012 at 8:50 pmThanks! And my next Blind Read post should be sometime this week, probably on Monday. Thanks so much for stopping by–I'm off to visit your blog! :D

September 1, 2012 at 8:52 pmAww, your blog is completely in Spanish. Do you have another blog? Sorry, if I had paid more attention in college I might have been able to read your blog. :(

September 3, 2012 at 5:38 amWell, it is in Italian, so you don't have to worry :)
I don't have another blog, sadly, but I'm surely thinking about translating my posts in English!
I've seen the post about your Blind Read, it's really nice to know it was a great start for you. You know, I don't think I'll ever be "brave" enough to start a book without having at least a little hint about the plot xD
Andrea @ The Overstuffed Bookcase
September 4, 2012 at 2:48 amAh, Italian. As I wrote that last comment I thought that maybe it was Italian and not Spanish… Well, darn! I'd love to read your blog if you do decide to translate it into English!
It was a bit scary to read the book without knowing a single thing, but I'm such a crazy person when it comes to spoilers that the less I know about a book often means I enjoy it more.
Thanks so much for continuing to visit my blog! :D

September 1, 2012 at 1:33 pmCongrats again on being pregnant! I'm so happy for you guys!
I can't wait to hear what you think of Speechless.
Andrea @ The Overstuffed Bookcase
September 1, 2012 at 9:15 pmThanks! Yeah, it'll probably be a while until I get to Speechless. But it sounds like all of you VA girls (including Jessie), plus Bittner, want to borrow it. So it'll probably be making the rounds! (That is, unless I LOVE LOVE LOVE it and then I'll just make you all read your own copies!) ;)

September 1, 2012 at 2:17 pmCONGRATULATIONS!! That's wonderful news!
Speechless is FANTASTIC, I just finished it this week and went out to buy my own copy yesterday. Can't wait to see what you think!
Andrea @ The Overstuffed Bookcase
September 1, 2012 at 9:17 pmThanks, Ashley! I'm super excited to read Speechless, but unfortunately there are about 7 books I need to read before I can get to it. :( Maybe I can be a super reader this month and get to it quickly! Ha, fat chance. I'm SUCH a slow reader. ;)
Jessie Marie
September 1, 2012 at 2:27 pmCongrats on the baby. You know what you should name him or her? Jessie/Jesse. ; ) Rounds out all the J's! Haha, just kidding. *starts researching bookish baby stuffs*
I want to read Speechless bad and I'm interested to see what you think about Crewel and It's Our Prom!
Andrea @ The Overstuffed Bookcase
September 1, 2012 at 9:20 pmThanks, Jessie! And although I do like the name Jessie, this little one already has a name picked out! I'm not sure if I want to broadcast it on here but I'll let you know privately. ;) And YES, this kiddo must have bookish stuff. :D
I think Speechless is probably going to make it your way eventually. That is, after I finish it and Bittner borrows it, which may be a couple months. Then you can send it on to the other chicas in VA. ;) And my review for It's Our Prom should be up this week, probably Monday. And I can't wait to read Crewel! Thanks again!

Kate@Midnight Book Girl
September 1, 2012 at 9:35 pmIs it weird that I am not digging Speechless because of the author's name down the spine? I love how you buried the news of your impending bookworm towards the end of the post! So excited for you and Jeremy!
Andrea @ The Overstuffed Bookcase
September 1, 2012 at 9:55 pmOh, but Speechless has such a fantastic cover and premise! I guess maybe I should have posted a pic of the covers instead… And I thought you said you wanted it to make its way to you, but maybe that was another book… Hmm, must go back and look….
Yep, just checked it and you said on my last WoW post that you foresee the book making its way to you! :D So don't be hating on the spine! ;)
Lol! I didn't really mean to bury that info, but I guess I did! :D Thanks, Kate!
