In My Mailbox (35)

In My Mailbox at The Story Siren

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren, and inspired by her friend, Alea of Pop Culture Junkie. It's a way to share the books that you've received over the past week. They could come from the bookstore, the library, a friend, your mailbox or wherever. It gives us all a chance to showcase the books that we've gotten, and maybe give others an idea for the book they want to read or buy next. :)

I'm posting this a lot later than usual because I went to see Cabin in the Woods last night, and didn't get home time late. I definitely encourage everyone to go see it, it was actually really awesome. It's a meta-horror, and kind of pokes fun at the things that always happen in horror movies. I found myself laughing a lot more than I found myself cringing in fear, but with Joss Whedon ,I'm not too surprised that it was so awesome. :)

Anywho...onto my mailbox!

For Review:

While He Was Away by Karen Schreck
The Summer of No Regrets by Katherine Grace Bond
The Curiosities: A Collection of Stories by Maggie Stiefvater, Tessa Gratton, and Brenna Yovanoff
The Glimpse by Claire Merle
Silver by Talia Vance

All of the above are from Netgalley and the respective publishers of each book. I'm participating in a blog tour for While He Was Away and The Summer of No Regrets, and I'm definitely looking forward to getting lost in their summery vibes. :) I'm also really excited for the other three. :D

Library:

Glass (Crank #2) by Ellen Hopkins
Changing the Game (Play by Play #2) by Jaci Burton

Oh, how I love the library! I've already devoured Changing the Game, and I'm hoping to get to Glass later in the week. :D

Bought: 

When You Dare (Men Who Walk the Edge of Honor #1) by Lori Foster

Yay! I now have this whole series! I'm doing the blog tour for the fourth book, so I wanted to get my hands on the other three. That way I can eventually go back and read what I've missed! ;D Plus, I kind of just like to stare at these covers...they're seriously amazing and the eye-candy is simply delicious, as is Changing the Game, up above! ;D

---------------------------------------------------------

So, I didn't get any actual books in my physical mailbox this week, but I did get some amazing ones from Netgalley, and the library...plus, I finally got my hands on the first book in the Men Who Walk the Edge of Honor series. :D I hope you all had very full mailboxes this week, and I'd like to thank Netgalley and all of the fabulous publishers on it who provided me with egalleys this week. :D

I'd love to know what you got in your mailbox, too! Feel free to leave a comment letting me know what you got, or a link taking me straight to your IMM post, and I'll come check it out! :D

  3. Great mailbox this week. I LOVED Changing the Game and was super excited about Taking a Shot since I love hockey but was a little disappointed in it. It wasn't as good as Gavin's story.

    @Kristin: Thanks! I loved it, too! Ya, if I'd read them in order I might not have liked Taking a Shot as much...Gavin is pretty hard to compete with! ;) haha
