Stacking the Shelves #10: The Naughty Mafia Rocks Las Vegas Edition

Stacking the Shelves is a weekend meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews. This post is where bloggers get to show their followers what books they've added to their shelves-bought, won, borrowed from library or friend, or exchanged. It can be a physical book, audiobook, or kindle/nook books.

Last weekend I went to The Naughty Mafia Rocks Las Vegas book signing event! I meet some of my favorite authors and got my books signed. Of course I had to buy some of the books they were selling like Stripped by Jasinda Wilder, Escaping Me by Elizabeth Lee, and Kim Karr gave me Connected for free :D! There were a ton of people at both signings (Saturday and Sunday) and the atmosphere was just insane! Can't wait to go to another book signing event :D!

I got all of my books signed :D!

All the authors were giving a lot of awesome swag!

All the authors at the event were super nice :D! I need to find the rest of the pics I took (hopefully my phone didn't delete some pictures).

Meeting Elizabeth Lee on Sunday just made my day. She recognized me and told me she liked my review of Escaping Me :D! She is one of my favorite authors, so I was super excited to meet her.

I also got to meet the wonderful and talented Emma Chase :D!

I also got to meet Gail McHugh :D! Here line was one of the many longest lines on Saturday, but it was totally worth the wait.

I also got a few kindle books in the past week, which I did not post about. But I am posting on this post :).

Kindle Books:

When I got back from Vegas I received some ARCS from authors and for blog tours that I have been eagerly awaiting :D! I was freaking out when I opened up my email and found...

My Unexpected Forever by Heidi McLaughlin. This is the second book in the Beaumont series, and I am so excited to start this book this weekend :D! I loved Forever My Girl and I am really looking forward to reading Katelyn's and Harrison's story :D! Thank you Heidi McLaughlin for providing an arc for the blog tour :).

Arsen by Mia Asher! I also signed up for this blog tour, and I was excited when I got the email that I was in the blog tour :). I have been hearing a lot of great things about this book, so I am excited to start this book. Thank you Mia Asher for providing an arc for the blog tour :D!

Tear of Tess by Pepper Winters! I contacted Pepper Winters to let her know that I was interested in reading an arc of Tears of Tess, and I seriously flipped out when Pepper Winters sent me the arc of Tears of Tess. I also signed up for the blog tour, so expect my review then :D! But I am starting this baby this weekend, because I don't think I can put it off for much longer! Thank you so much Pepper Winters for providing the arc :).

Everything I've Never Had by Lynetta Halat! I believe you all know that I am a huge fan of Lynetta Halat's debut novel, and her writing in general. If you haven't read Every Rose, then you need to BUY it this weekend. Why? Because Lynetta Halat is having a $0.99 Weekend Sale in honor of the new cover :D! I have been reading the excerpts of Everything I've Never Had, and I am just excited to read this book too. Thank you Lynetta Halat for providing an arc for the blog tour :D!

Unexpected by Faith Sullivan! I am excited to start Unexpected, because I read the synopsis and it caught my attention. Thank you Faith Sullivan for providing an arc of Unexpected :D!

Relinquishing Liberty by Maureen Mayer! I signed up for the blog tour and am excited to start reading this soon. I absolutely love the hot cover ;). Thank you Maureen Mayer for providing an arc copy for the blog tour :D!

Torch by Cambria Hebert! I was supposed to have my review up by now, but I will admit that I got behind on my reading schedule. I am going to start this one tonight and have my review up by Monday :D! I am a fan of Cambria Hebert and am excited to read her New Adult series! Thank you Cambria Hebert for providing an arc of Torch :D!
