Stacking the Shelves #4

Stacking the Shelves is a feature hosted by Tygna's Reviews. It's about sharing the books you got this week--virtual or physical--from the bookstore, the library, borrowed from friends, etc.

I bought two books from the bookstore this week, and made a trip to the library, too.



Bought:



Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer

Borrowed:


The Diviners by Libba Bray
The Way We Fall by Megan Crewe

I've heard a lot about Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, so I definitely have high expectations of it. As for Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, I've seen the movie countless times. It's one of my favorites, so I'm really hoping the book is just as good as the movie, if not better.

I confess I got both library books partly (okay, mostly) because they both have gorgeous covers, but I had heard of both of them beforehand, so we'll see how they turn out.

  1. Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and The Way We Fall are both amazing! I have a copy of The Diviners that I have yet to read, but Libba Bray is so great! I love the Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close Movie, and I can't wait to read the book!
