STACKING THE SHELVES #4

Stacking The Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews, is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!


Hey guys!
I'm back again with another book haul, but i am super excited about the books i got this week! They were all from the charity shop so i only spent around £3.50 and i'm pretty stoked and proud that i got these amazing books for such a steal!

Bought

Ta Daaa!

The Princess Bride by William Goldman
If you follow me on Instagram you will have seen me gushing about this book on there. The Princess Bride is one of my favorite films ever, me and my friend used to watch it on repeat on our days off from school and iv'e been wanting to read it for such a long time now i was so happy to finally found it! To make my find even better this edition has the most stunning cover so check out my Instagram to see it in all it's glory! ( Instagram- @walnutwolff)
Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult
Iv'e never read a Jodi Picoult book before, my mum and sister love her but it was one of my friends who recommended this one to me and it just sounds so good! It's about a boy who is bullied throughout school and ends up committing mass murder at his school. This sounds like something i'll really enjoy and will hopefully get me reading more of this authors books.
The Luminaries by Elanor Catton
This book. Now iv'e seen this book literally EVERYWHERE but iv'e never known what it's about so when i saw it in the shop i couldn't resist snapping it up! 

For Review.


Disobeying Hitler by Randall Hansen

I love history. I especially love WWII so even though this is so very, very different to everything i usually review i am so excited to get this book as it's on a subject that i just find so very interesting and love reading about. 


This weeks hauls been a bit of a mixed up, mash up of books but it's got me so giddy that i cannot wait to get into these books! 

Have any of you guys read any of these? If you have what did you think? 
Any Jodi Picoult fans, which are your favorites? If i enjoy Nineteen Minutes which should i read next? 
What did you guys get this week?
