In My Mailbox (#2)


In My Mailbox is a really fun meme hosted by The Story Siren, where we get to gush about all the books we received and share our thoughts on them!




I haven't participated in IMM since February 19th, so I have quite a few books to share. I won a few books from different blogs, got some for review, and bought some (of course...). So, let's get started!After about 16 takes, my vlog is done. Oh my. It should never take this long.






Won:


Signed copies of Legend by Marie Lu and Across the Universe by Beth Revis, plus a bunch of swag from Tiffany Schmidt's Breathless Reads Giveaway on her blog, Letters, words, thoughts, ideas, stories.
- - I recently got a personalized copy of ATU from Alexa at Alexa Loves Books as well, so this second copy will be up for giveaway soon! :)
Signed copy of The Crystal Princess by Kimberly Norton from Readinista.

Thanks so much to the both of you for hosting such wonderful giveaways!


For Review:


Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers exclusive promo galley on Netgalley. 
Enchanted by Alethea Kontis from Magan at Rather by Reading from her trip to Ala Midwinter. 
Under the Same Sky by Genevieve Graham from the publisher for review at The Broke and the Bookish .

Thanks to the publishers (and Magan)! I'm excited to read these. :) 


Purchased:


Evernight by Claudia Gray (with bonus materials) - Free on kindle! 
The Boyfriend Bylaws by Susan Hatler - Free on kindle!
Blue Eyes and Other Teenage Hazards by Janette Rallison (kindle)

  1. I just got notice Legend came in for me at the library and I'm so excited to read it! Grave Mercy's been on my to-read list for awhile too, seems to be making its way to a lot of mailboxes this past week - can't wait to read your thoughts on it!

    Happy reading :)
