In My Mailbox (17)

Hi everyone! It’s been a busy week for me – shooting, tons of homework, exams and staying up late at my mom’s office. So sorry for the lack of reviews. It’s just that I didn’t have time to post. And I didn’t have internet these past two weeks! But I have 6 reviews ready by tomorrow.

In My Mailbox is a meme hosted by Kristi of The Story Siren. It aims to encourage bloggers to interact with one another and to explore the books received for review, bought, borrowed, won or gifted by bloggers. I’ve received lots of books last week. I still have 3 parcel notices so that means additional books for next week’s IMM.

For Review:


20 Years Later by Emma Newman (ARC)
Silver Moon by Rebecca Rogers (signed)
Under the Stars by Rebecca Rogers (signed ARC)
The Lost Saint by Bree Despain (ARC)
The Pull of Gravity by Gae Polisner
Queen Bee of Bridgeton by Leslie Dubois (I was supposed to review this two months ago. So..the tour is over obviously.)
Kane Richards Must Die by Shanice Williams (ARC)
The Predicteds by Christine Seifert (signed ARC)
Ashes, Ashes by Jo Treggiari (signed ARC)
From Dark Places by EJ Newman (ebook)
The Circle Cast: The Lost Years of Morgan le Fay by Alex Epstein (ebook – Teen Book Scene)
Witch Song by Amber Argyle (ebook – Teen Book Scene)
Tower of Parlen Min by Matt Xell (ebook - tour)

Bought:

 
Passion by Lauren Kate - there’s a free shirt too! Such a shame it’s not my size. When I wear it, I feel like I’m wearing a dress. Too long! I was also supposed to go to Lauren’s signing yesterday. But I was too busy with school. Maybe next year?

Borrowed & Gifted:


I met up with Kai from Amaterasu Reads and Mia from Girl About Books. I borrowed a few books from Kai. And because she’s amazing, she lent me…

Tiger’s Curse by Colleen Houck (ARC)
Those That Wake by Jesse Karp
Fallen Angel by Heather Terrell
Blue Moon by Alyson Noel

Kai gave me her ARC of Kindred by Tammar Stein!

Won:

Blood Magic by Tessa Gratton
