In My Mailbox #20


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.






For Review:

Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers (His Fair Assassin, Book 1), ARC from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt/HMH Kids -- sooo excited for this one


Purchased:

Fever by Lauren DeStefano
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Other Stories by Lewis Carroll (part of the B&N Leatherbound Classics series)
Iron Crowned by Richelle Mead (audiobook)
Shadow Heir by Richelle Mead (audiobook)



I bought that leatherbound copy of Alice for a friend's birthday because she's a HUGE Alice-nut, but after seeing all of the offerings in this B&N series, I may have to get them all for myself.  Or, ya know, someone could get them for me since my own birthday is coming up.  And it's a big one.  And everyone always says they don't know what to get me because they can't pick books for me.  Well, here's the solution.  :D

    Hi Jen:)
    Thanks for visiting my IMM post :)

    I also received Grave Mercy a couple weeks ago, and I think I'm going to read it this week, I've heard great things about it!;) I hope we both love it. All the cover reveals are gorgeous.:) Ironed Crowned was great, I didn't like Shadow Heir but some of my buddies loved it, ;) The Alice in Wonderland book is gorgeous. I know it will be a shock to you but I love Pink!!;) hehe.
    Hope you love these. I'll stalk your goodreads updates!;) Take Care

    Hi! I thought I had already left you a comment about this, but I guess I didn't! I just wanted to let you know that I'm co-hosting/participating in a Wither/Fever read-along event starting this Sunday, March 18th, and you should totally participate! It's okay if you've already read Wither and/or Fever. Here's a link for more info if you're interested: Catch Wither Fever Read-Along Event
