Stacking
the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews, every
Weekend.
This is to share books I have acquired from various sources.
Physical books & ebooks both are
welcome. If its something being sent to me by mail, I will not mention it until I actually
receive it.
Okay, short and sweet this week!

"You stop fearing the devil when you’re holding his hand…
Nothing much exciting rolls through Violet White’s sleepy, seaside town…
until River West comes along. River rents the guest house behind Violet’s
crumbling estate, and as eerie, grim
things start to happen, Violet begins to wonder about the boy living in her
backyard.
Is River just a crooked-smiling liar with pretty eyes and a mysterious past? Or
could he be something more?
Violet’s grandmother always warned her about the Devil, but she never said he
could be a dark-haired boy who takes naps in the sun, who likes coffee, who
kisses you in a cemetery... who makes you want to kiss back.
Violet’s already so knee-deep in love, she can’t see straight. And that’s just
how River likes it.
Blending faded decadence and the thrilling dread of gothic horror, April
Genevieve Tucholke weaves a dreamy, twisting contemporary romance, as
gorgeously told as it is terrifying—a debut to watch."
***I was actually buying office supplies at the 99¢ store when I saw this!! Instant buy. It was funny in a way. I had recently entered a giveaway (didn't win obviously) that asked for the name of a book on our wishlists so I named this one. Now I have it and for only $1!!! When I got out to the car I did a happy twirl before getting in the car as I was so happy to get this Brand New for such a great price. My husband thought I was nuts.***

Beautiful cover for Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea...it looks creepy and atmospheric and I LOVE covers like this. I didn't really get into the 5th Wave but I think it would be a good film to see. Enjoy your reading this week!
ReplyDeleteShort but definitely sweet! You got some great books! I hope you enjoy them!
