What is In My Mailbox?
In My Mailbox was started in November of 2008. What it all came down to was this: I get books to read and then ultimately share my thoughts about with my readers. As much as I want to, I can’t possibly read every book I receive. Yet, I still wanted a way to feature those books on the blog, even though it might not be in the form of a review. Problem solved!
Week 46: Here’s what’s in my mailbox this week!
♡ GIVEN/BOUGHT/SWAPPED/LIBRARY:
1. “Kushiel’s Scion (Kushiel’s Legacy #4)” by Jacqueline Carey – bought
2. “Kushiel’s Justice (Kushiel’s Legacy #5)” by Jacqueline Carey – bought
3. “Chobits: Volume 6 (English Translated Edition)” by CLAMP – bought
4. “Reamde” by Neal Stephenson – library
5. “Envy” by Gregg Olsen – library
6. “Devoted (Elixir #2)” by Hilary Duff – library
7. “Starcrossed” by Elizabeth Dunce – library
8. “The Revenant” by Sonia Gensler – library
9. “Bad Taste in Boys” by Carrie Harris – library
10. “Enthralled (Anthology)” by Melissa Marr & Others -library
11. “Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark” by Guillermo del Toro – library
Another excellent library haul this week – a lot of these had been sitting on my nook and this just gets me to read them faster! But the Del Toro book I wasn’t expecting – I wasn’t even aware that it was out! And then there was a library bookstore sale so…yeah. 50c for each book! (Kushiel 4, 5, and Chobits). I love my library. Even if Orange County sucks, the City of Orange library is AMAZING, guys, for serious. I guess I’d better get reading! Especially “Reamde” – as you can see, it’s huge! But I’m really excited to read it, seeing as I adored Stephenson’s previous release, “Anathema”.
♡ E-ARCs/GALLEYS/ONLINE PUBLISHER READING:
1. “Wonder Show” by Hannah Barnaby (Netgalley – HMH for Children)
2. “Royal Street” by Suzanne Johnson (Netgalley – Tor)
3. “Star Trek: Volume 1 (20o9 movie prequel)” by (Netgalley – IDW)
Yay, “Star Trek”! I loved J.J. Abrams’ 2009 reboot of the series, so I’m pretty excited to read the comic book. Sadly, it’s only the first issue (30pgs) out of the entire omnibus, but it’s better than nothing. And the rest were random requests from NG. Thanks to NG and its partners for being awesome and sending me these!
