Stacking the Shelves { 7 }

                                   


Stacking the shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews where we share what we recieved in mail , purchased online or in local bookstores , borrowed from Library or friends. It could be physical books or ebooks !

Sadly the growing pile of unread books does nothing to my quench of buying more books. So instead of buying new books this week I ordered two books from the series I love the most by my favorite author. And since they were on a discounted rate on Amazon India (Thanks Amazon! ) I didn't burn any wholes in my pocket too!
Here's what I got :
 
Name: Goddess of the Sea.
Author: P.C.Cast
Series: Book #1 of Goddess Summoning Series

Goodreads Summary : On the night of her twenty-fifth birthday, alone in her apartment, Air Force Sergeant Christine Canady wished for one thing: a little magic in her life. After drinking way too much champagne, she performed, of all crazy things, a goddess-summoning ritual, hoping that it would somehow make her life a little less ordinary...but she never believed the spell would actually work!

When her military plane crashes into the ocean, CC's mission overseas takes an unexpected turn. She awakens to find herself in a legendary time and place where magic rules the land—occupying the body of the mythic mermaid Undine. But there is danger in the waters and the goddess Gaea turns this modern, military gal into a beautiful damsel so that she can seek shelter on land.

CC is soon rescued (literally) by a knight in shining armor. She should be falling in love with this dream-come-true, but instead she aches for the sea and Dylan, the sexy merman who has stolen her heart.




Name: Goddess of Spring.
Author: P.C.Cast
Series: Book #2 of Goddess Summoning Series.

Goodreads Summary: This time around, a down-on-her-luck baker comes upon a cookbook that turns out to be a goddess-send...

Lina's trendy bakery in Tulsa is proving to be less than lucrative, and she must come up with a plan. When she stumbles upon an Italian Goddess cookbook, Lina can't help but think she's found the answer to her problem—even if it means invoking a goddess to save her business.

Soon enough, Lina finds herself face-to-face with Demeter, who has a plan of her own. She proposes that Lina exchange souls with Persephone, the Goddess of Spring, who will breathe new life into the bakery. In return, Lina must set order to the Underworld.

Before all this, Lina's problems mostly involved sourdough and second dates. Now that she embodies the enchanting Persephone, Lina has weightier things on her mind—like the formidable task of bringing Spring to a world of spirits. But when the handsome, brooding Hades kindles a spark in her heart, Lina wonders if this Lord of the Underworld might be the man of her dreams..


And since I just couldn't stand the idea of only buying two books I had to check out more and found some more good deals on Amazon India. 



Name: Daughter of Smoke and Bone
Author: Laini Taylor
Series: Book #1 of Daughter of Smoke and Bone Series.

Goodreads Summary: "Errand requiring immediate attention. Come.

The note was on vellum, pierced by the talons of the almost-crow that delivered it. Karou read the message. 'He never says please', she sighed, but she gathered up her things.
When Brimstone called, she always came."

In general, Karou has managed to keep her two lives in balance. On the one hand, she's a seventeen-year-old art student in Prague; on the other, errand-girl to a monstrous creature who is the closest thing she has to family. Raised half in our world, half in 'Elsewhere', she has never understood Brimstone's dark work - buying teeth from hunters and murderers - nor how she came into his keeping. She is a secret even to herself, plagued by the sensation that she isn't whole.

Now the doors to Elsewhere are closing, and Karou must choose between the safety of her human life and the dangers of a war-ravaged world that may hold the answers she has always sought.
