New Shelf Goodies & The Weekly Nutshell {13}

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 Alea @ Pop Culture Junkie's This Week in Books & 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) Note: This is not a meme, but I'll be hopping around to any other book haul-sharing posts I come across!

Two new goodies this week for review:
For Review:
Something Red by Douglas Nicholas
Notice the wolf sneakily hidden in the treeline...cool.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
I've been meaning to read this one before the movie came out---so I was happy when this showed up in my mailbox! Cool movie tie-in edition. :)

Many thanks to Atria Books & MTV Books for these!
