Stacking The Shelves #4: T'WAS MAIL WEEK



Stacking The Shelves is a feature hosted by Tynga’s Reviews where bloggers share what books (both physical and digital) they received, won, bought, and borrowed.


It's been a few weeks since I posted an STS and I haven't actually purchased books in a while because there are so many stuff to buy for school and saving up is a total challenge. But I will make it up by the end of the month, I guess. Anyway, again, it has been a wondrous mail week where I received nice stuff from authors! This post will also include the galleys I received in the previous months.

Hello there misfit booknerds!!! I'm excited to tell you that we are joined by the wonderful Sasha Dawn, author of Oblivion which has hit book stores since May 27 and I was lucky enough to do an ARC review for it. Today she's gonna share with us what she thinks of flawed characters and how they shape novels too.

ARC Review: Oblivion by Sasha Dawn (2014)

Title: Oblivion
Author: Sasha Dawn
Publication: May 27, 2014, Egmont USA
Format: e-ARC, 400 pages
Source: Egmont USA through Netgalley (Thank you Egmont USA)
Pre-order or buy it on: Amazon | Barnes and Noble



Synopsis:
One year ago, Callie was found in an abandoned apartment, scrawling words on the wall: "I KILLED HIM. His blood is on my hands. His heart is in my soul. I KILLED HIM." But she remembers nothing of that night or of the previous thirty-six hours. All she knows is that her father, the reverend at the Church of the Holy Promise, is missing, as is Hannah, a young girl from the parish. Their disappearances have to be connected and Callie knows that her father was not a righteous man. Since that fateful night, she's been plagued by graphomania -- an unending and debilitating compulsion to write. The words that flow from Callie's mind and through her pen don't seem to make sense -- until now. 
As the anniversary of Hannah's vanishing approaches, more words and memories bubble to the surface and a new guy in school might be the key to Callie putting together the puzzle. But digging up the secrets she's buried for so long might be her biggest mistake.

  Misfit Review:
* I was given a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review*
