Hey, everyone! It feels like it’s been so long since I’ve blogged, because I usually schedule my posts weeks ahead of time, and I haven’t been scheduling posts in a week or two. I guess to you, you can’t tell the difference (as long as I still have my posts up!), but it’s good to be back in gear and writing posts more regularly. I had something else planned today, but I decided to switch it up because I’ve had a lot of books on my mind lately. Of course, I ALWAYS do, but this time, it feels more overwhelming than exciting.

There are just SOOOO many books. So many. I’ve only read one book this week (Rain Reign, which was a little disappointing), and I’m also having a hard time deciding what to read next. I have several books on hold at the library, plus some school-required reading, plus the books from the library I have out right now… PLUS the towering TBR stack that’s been sitting on my shelf for who-knows-how-long. Yep. I’m telling you, one day I’m going to fall under all the books I need to read and break my neck!

ANY WHO… onto the point of this post. I thought I’d talk a bit about the books I need to read! I have several books some of you (clearly awesome) blog readers have recommended to me, and I’m super-duper excited + anxious to read them! I really hope I like them. These are the books I have out from the library currently:

SO many good ones, am I right?! 😀 I’ve finished Rain Reign, but the others I still need to read. I talked about most of them in my last Stacking the Shelves. As for the books on hold at the library that I’ll be picking up today or tomorrow, I’ve got three:

The False Prince was recommended to me by two commenters (for the life of me, I can’t remember who! Sorry!), and I’m thinking I might try to get my little sister into them as well. It sounds like something she would really enjoy. I’m hoping to get into them, too. Since You’ve Been Gone is something I’ve been wanting to read for a really really REALLY long time, and I know Daisy‘s been wanting me to give it a try. 😉 (wink wink) And finally, The Swift Boys & Me – I saw it on Goodreads and thought the cover is adorable, the plot sounds adorable.. so why not?

Okay, so there’s that. Now for my To-Be-Read pile.

Yeeeeaahhh… pretty tall. Although not as big as SOME bloggers… I’m not proud of it. >_< Dunno when or if I’ll ever get to it, but guys, it’s always hanging over my shoulder! I have a slight problem. And I’m pretty sure there are some books hiding on other shelves that I also haven’t read, so that’s certainly not all of them. (BY the way; mom, dad, grandma, cousins, aunts/uncles, any family reading this… THIS DOES NOT MEAN, by ANY stretch, you do not need to buy me more books. More books are always necessary. I promise I’ll get around to them!) 😀

On a side note, see the two copies of The Huntress Of Thornbeck Forest by Melanie Dickerson hanging out to the right of the TBR stack? I’ll be giving one of those away! Sometime soon! I won one copy in a giveaway myself in May, and then for some reason I got another one in the mail this week. (Which was definitely a nice surprise, so thanks Harper Collins!) 😉 Only I haven’t read it yet, so once I read and review it, I’ll be giving away a copy. Some other “bloggy” surprises will be coming your way soon, as well, SO BE PREPARED.

That’s pretty much it for today, folks. I hope you liked this sort of rambling post, something a little different since I usually save these for the weekends, but oh well. What books do you need to read?? Ohmigosh, completely forgot about talking about my school-required books. Tomorrow? We’ll see! Oh – and on a completely random note, do any of you watch Heartland on Netflix? I’M HOOKED. I’m on season four, and working my way through it quite fast. Those stinkers in Canada get all eight seasons, while we Americans get six, so that’s a little sad, but I’m still watching it! It’s awesome… another thing keeping me from reading more than one book this week, lol.

Until next time!

P.S. Will you help me pick which book to read next in the comments?
