Stacking the Shelves – a weekly meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews & Reading Reality
what’s the buzz: weekly round-up and book haul
I have been a lazy so-and-so this past week (I think the quarantine is starting to get to me). Still, at least I finally got to play the Final Fantasy 7 Remake (which I adored – just as good as the original game in a totally different way!) Honestly, my expectations for this game were sky-high but it managed to exceed almost every one of them (and even the ones it didn’t it came damn close!) I absolutely cannot wait for the next part. 😆
I have also been re-watching The Untamed (shocker, I know!) and replaying the Mass Effect trilogy. I took a break after playing the second game to play FF7 but now I’m back on Mass Effect 3. Replaying the first two games brought a lot of memories back but since I only really completed the third game once, it’s almost like a new game again. Huh.
Since it’s been a few weeks since I last did a STS post, I have accumulated quite a few merch items (although, even on a week-to-week basis it probably still is rather a lot!)
- Stephen King, Spooky Superheroes, and Throne of Glass book sleeves from Book Besties UK, Stalking Jack the Ripper book sleeve from Books Breathe Magic Shop, A Court of Thorns and Roses pins/badges from Love of Literature Co: I always love bookish and Untamed-themed merch so I may have gone a bit crazy here…
- Custom book sleeves from Book Besties UK, Untamed posters from eBay and Untamed postcards also from eBay: Yep, even more Untamed merch #sorrynotsorry!
- Postcards (mainly of The Untamed) from Redbubble, badges from Amazon marketplace: A little bit more merch for my favourite series (can you tell it’s my fave?) Seriously though, I just cannot get enough merch for this amazing series! 😉

- Acrylic MDZS stands from eBay, keychain from eBay, buttons (lots of buttons!) from Amazon marketplace: I promise this is the last of my Untamed merch (well, for this week anyways!)
- Final Fantasy 7 Remake Deluxe Edition purchased from GAME: I am so glad I was able to snag this – it was out of stock everywhere but GAME online must have got a couple of copies in and my other half happened across it and got it for me!
- Resident Evil 3 Remake also purchased from GAME: I can’t wait to play this but I’m being good and finishing my current game first. The OCD in me kinda wants to start from the beginning though…
