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.
Ugh, the first full week of the year is always the roughest! I'm already counting down the days till I get another three-day weekend and then the countdown to Spring Break will officially begin. *sigh* It never ends...I should stop wishing my life away. I need a job where I get paid for reading. Then, I think I might be content. Maybe...
Anyway, here's what I scored this week:
For Review:
Edelweiss:
Thank you, Harper!!!

Omigod, omigod! Meridian!!!!! I have been looking forward to this book since I first found out a sequel to Arclight existed. I am going to have to make some room on my review schedule for that one for sure! And look at all of the other great books Harper listed on Edelweiss recently! I love when they go crazy listing titles, but then *I* go crazy downloading them. Oh, well...I'll never be without something to read, right? =)
Audiobooks:
Thank you, Blackstone Audio & AudioGo!!!

Okay, so I still have to read/listen to Miss Peregrine's first, but I am soo excited about Hollow City, especially after seeing that uber-creepy trailer. And I loved Lucy Christopher's Stolen, and even though I've seen a lot of middling reviews for The Killing Woods, I'm still extremely excited to start it.
Purchased/Freebies:

Jen's Currently Reading/Listening To:
I'm about half-way through this book, and honestly, it's stunning. Like, I've forgotten it's a retelling of Beauty and the Beast, and I'm just along for the ride, for the mythology, and for the barbs Nyx and Ignifex hurl at each other. =) This is most assuredly going on my 2014 favorites list.
I haven't started this one yet, but I think it's going to be my next pick. It sounds creepy and disturbing, and I think I'm due for that type of listen since I've been choosing lighter fare recently. ;)
And on Tuesday, I'll have a guest post from Morgan Rhodes, author of the Falling Kingdoms books.

That's an awesome haul! Loooots of books to read. And I want to get paid for reading to. Gosh, life would be so awesome then. I just borrowed Stolen out! I want to read The Killing Woods...creepy is awesome. Who needs sleep anyway?
ReplyDeleteWow I think you got all the Harper ARCs on Edelweiss! And you definitely have all the ones I downloaded too :D I'm so excited for Meridian as well, I can't wait for more of those characters and that world. Wild sounds pretty awesome too, right? :)
ReplyDeleteLovely haul!

Don't you just love EW. I'm excited to read Side Effects and the Secrets of Lily Graves. I snagged The Killing Woods from my library this week. I haven't read Stolen, but I've heard good things. I was in the mood for something a bit darker, too. I hope we both love it. Hope you're having an awesome weekend!
ReplyDeleteRoyally Lost is up on Edelweiss now?! Yay! It looks adorable. I think I may go pretty wild on there as well ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat???How can Miss Peregrine's be an audiobook? You need the photos!!
ReplyDeleteI also downloaded some of those Harper titles too. I've been on the fence about Killing Woods so can't wait to see what you think!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Jen @ YA Romantics
Great books! 17 First Kisses and The Things You Kiss Goodbye (which looks like a Jennifer E. Smith book) both look good.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy, Jen!
YES!! That's exactly how I justify my downloads from Edelweiss. I'll never NOT have something to read, so there will never be an excuse to binge watch Netflix when I should be doing something productive... like reading!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy all of your books!

I'm not an Eidwelwess account holder so I've been save from the temptation of massive downloading. I don't think I'll be able to resist otherwise. Don't feel bad. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
Harper is trying to kill us on Edelweiss. lol I'm trying to be good at downloading but we'll see. Maybe after I get a few more reviews posted I can go a little crazier. lol
ReplyDeleteps. I didn't get to the post office but I am going later this week! I'm going to start Split Second later today and read it real fast so you don't have to rush. :)
