Stacking the Shelves (1) : Also known as The Great Splurge

Hello, it's Judith here, and I will be your book Viking today. I come with great spoils of my last pillage! I have no idea why I'm a Viking for the day? "Stacking the Shelves" is run by Tynga @ Tynga's Book Reviews and I'm linking up with some of the great books I found last week. My shelves, they be stacking! And I know that it's a bit overdue, but better late than never? Argghh, on to the post! And now I'm a pirate.

Library Stash

Bought

*Squeals like an insane person* 

This right here (above) is my childhood! I remember when Enid Blyton was my crack, that woman essentially inspired me to write and when I saw The Faraway Tree Stories, my absolute favourite novel by her, I needed to snap that baby up! Disney will never die. The storybook on the left was read to me all the days of my Viking infancy. Both are out of print, and I couldn't pass up on buying either :)

[Viking Judith: "So, do you lovely ladies come here often?"]

*Facepalm* I suck at pick-up lines, and needless to say, this Viking would be slapped pretty promptly. Eesh, you can't catch a break, not even with the fictional ladies! Note, I am probably the biggest procrastinator to date when it comes to getting my releases in hand, mainly because there is never enough time, but I finally had my two main squeezes "The Golden Lily" and "Seraphina" come in the mail. I can't wait to read them! 

All of these books are great, I cannot wait to get to them, but is there anything on your shelf that you're dying to read/have gotten? Do share ;) P.s. If you like/dislike the pillaging Viking and want to see him feature on my rendition of Stacking the Shelves again, let me know!
