New Shelf Goodies & The Weekly Nutshell {91}

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)

Here's what I got this week:
For review:
The Cabinet of Curiosities by Stefan Bachmann, Katherine Catmull, Claire LeGrand, and Emma Trevayne (story collection)
Trial by Fire by Josephine Angelini
The Vault of Dreamers by Caragh M. O'brien
I could comment separately on each one, but really I'm so excited for every single one of these! I was oooing and aaahing like it was the 4th of July every time I opened a package. :D

And I have to show the packaging for Trial by Fire...once again, I'm in awe of Macmillan's marketing team. Lovely, lovely...


Thanks to Greenwillow Books and Macmillan for the mail this week!


The Weekly Nutshell: 

Well, gosh, I guess I sort of disappeared midweek! It's been too hot here to do much of anything but sit very still, read, and eat ice cream.  We went to the zoo for my son's birthday on Wednesday and I think my brain might have melted. Seriously, I don't do well in heat, and summer hasn't even started. Is it autumn yet??? :D
