In My Mailbox #48




In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.  It's a weekly meme where we all get to brag about the books and swag we got in the mail, for review, won in contests, etc.





Anyone else feeling a little overwhelmed with all of the great new books recently released and coming soon?!?  I know I'll never be able to say "I have nothing to read" ever again, but at what price?  I'm still trying to keep the influx of books to a minimum so that I can read some of the ones I already own, but I did pick up a few titles this week...

For Review:

Lindsey Lost by Suzanne Marie Phillips, from the publisher
Torched by Andrea Lynn Colt, from the author



Purchased:

Partials by Dan Wells, ebook on sale for $2.99 - see the other awesome Epic Reads on sale - ends 9/17
Lengths by Steph Campbell/Liz Reinhardt, ebook only $3.99



Oh, and I also gifted a copy of Unspoken to my older sis.  We've recently bonded over our shared love of Veronica Mars, and I knew she had to read this book, especially after the author posted a whole segment on how awesome VM is.  :D  You can check out my review for this awesome new release here.

Feel free to share your haul in the comments so I can drool and dream about them.  =P



The Week in Review:

Audiobook Reviews:  Cinder and The Girl of Fire and Thorns, both of which I loved

We discussed chapter titles for last week's edition of The Sunday Symposium.

Current Giveaways:  Books to Movies Giveaway Hop - win a hardcover of The Hunger Games and a The Hunger Games movie prize pack (US only) & Under the Sea Giveaway Hop - win your choice (5 to choose from) of mermaid tale (international)

I also helped reveal the cover of a new fantasy novel from Trisha Wolfe:  Fireblood is due out October 2013!


The Week Ahead:

The third post in my new Sunday Symposium series - a new feature in which I'll be discussing various bookish topics and asking for your commentary, as well.  There may even be another giveaway...just sayin'.  :0)

I'll be reviewing some more of my recent audiobook listens in preparation for upcoming sequels.

Also, I hope you'll stop by and enter to win one of my favorite books on my stop of the Stuck in a Good Book Giveaway Hop, which starts mid-week.

  2. I love Veronica Mars too! Years later, I'm still upset they canceled it when they did.
