New Shelf Goodies & The Weekly Nutshell {78}

For New Shelf Goodies, I'll be showing you what lovely books I acquired this week, whether from publishers, or the library, or from whatever half-crazed book-buying binge I happened to go on. :D (Inspired by Tynga's Stacking the Shelves) The Weekly Nutshell will be just that...my week here at Stories & Sweeties, in a nutshell. (inspired by Ginger @ GReads and her recaps at the end of the TGIF posts)

A lovely book week, small but sparkly!!
 I WoW'd this book awhile back, so I was very excited to get it. This is completely different from Revolution (the author's first book), but I hope it blows me away just as completely!
I'm such a sucker for fun packaging.  I was already super excited about this one, but actually squealed at the sight of it wrapped in a gingham box and ribbon with a special letter from The Revolutionary Order of the Wicked!
Boarding school setting, murder, and ghosts...just couldn't pass this one up when it was offered! 

Huge thanks to Disney, HarperTeen (via SF Book Review), and Soho Teen for these!
