Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.
Hey guys! 🙂 Another Saturday and time for another Stacking the Shelves. I only have two additions for you this week, so I will include both the synopsis’ of the books and the links to Goodreads in case you want to add them to your own TBR!
The Wrath and The Dawn by Renee Ahdieh.
A sumptuous and epically told love story inspired by A Thousand and One Nights
Every dawn brings horror to a different family in a land ruled by a killer. Khalid, the eighteen-year-old Caliph of Khorasan, takes a new bride each night only to have her executed at sunrise. So it is a suspicious surprise when sixteen-year-old Shahrzad volunteers to marry Khalid. But she does so with a clever plan to stay alive and exact revenge on the Caliph for the murder of her best friend and countless other girls. Shazi’s wit and will, indeed, get her through to the dawn that no others have seen, but with a catch . . . she’s falling in love with the very boy who killed her dearest friend.
She discovers that the murderous boy-king is not all that he seems and neither are the deaths of so many girls. Shazi is determined to uncover the reason for the murders and to break the cycle once and for all.
Beautiful Player by Christina Lauren.
A bombshell bookworm. A chronic Casanova. And a lesson in chemistry too scandalous for school.
When Hanna Bergstrom receives a lecture from her overprotective brother about neglecting her social life and burying herself in grad school, she’s determined to tackle his implied assignment: get out, make friends, start dating. And who better to turn her into the sultry siren every man wants than her brother’s gorgeous best friend, Will Sumner, venture capitalist and unapologetic playboy?
Will takes risks for a living, but he’s skeptical about this challenge of Hanna’s…until the wild night his innocently seductive pupil tempts him into bed- and teaches him a thing or two about being with a woman he can’t forget. Now that Hanna’s discovered the power of her own sex appeal, it’s up to Will to prove he’s the only man she’ll ever need.
I jumped onto The Wrath and The Dawn bandwagon not too long ago after seeing it absolutely everywhere. I am not going to lie, I didn’t want to put this onto my TBR list because of the hype monster and I am struggling to actually sit down and read it without going and doing something else. So far I have absolutely loved the Beautiful Bastard series by the duo Christina and Lauren and I am definitely looking forward to reading this books offerings!
More than anything, I have added a ton of books to my TBR list thanks to Netgalley and Goodreads … This list will never shrink at this rate!
So, what about you guys? Have you added anything interesting? Feel free to leave your answers and links in the comments section below and I will check them all out! In the meantime, I am going to go and get some lunch…
Awesome choices. I have heard some amazing things about The Wrath and The Dawn. I hope you love all your new books.
