In My Mailbox (21)

I haven't done an IMM post in a really long time but this post is only going to include books I've acquired in the last week or two. So let's get started!


Zombies vs. Unicorns by various authors, edited by Holly Black and Justine Larbalestier (bought) I am definitely on Team Unicorn!

The Fortune of Carmen Navarro by Jen Bryant (won from Books Obsession)

Have you read these? Which one should I pick up first! I'd love to hear your thoughts and what books you got this week!

In My Mailbox (20)

Lately my library has really stepped up and has been getting lots of awesome new YA books in so I haven't felt the need to buy any for awhile. All these are from the library:

I had a pretty sparse haul this week, but that's okay, because I'm starting to run out of places to put books. Seriously, you should see my bookshelf. It's overflowing. Speaking of which, would you like to see some pics of it? I know some other bloggers have done this in the past but do you want to see mine? Tell me in the comments please!
On to the books..

I only got a few books this week, which I'm very happy about because a) they were good ones and b) I need more books like I need a hole in the head. Seriously, my tbr pile is huge and I need to catch up. Luckily, I only have one more week of school left! Heck yeah! =]
















Crazy Beautiful by Lauren Baratz-Logsted

Cold Hands, Warm Heart by Jill Wolfson - from BookDivas. I haven't heard much of anything about this one but the synopsis looks interesting and original.

This week I received lots of books from contests. That's really unusual for me because I never win anything. Really, I thought I might be cursed. But apparently, the curse is broken! Look below to see what I mean!

From contests:

































Absolutely Maybe by Lisa Yee (this is my second copy so do you think I should give away my ARC or just put it on a swap site?)
Just One Wish by Janette Rallison
Say The Word by Jeannine Garsee
Forever Princess by Meg Cabot
Envy by Anna Godbersen

Wondrous Strange by Lesley Livingston

From PaperBack Swap:












I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You by Ally Carter
Scrambled Eggs at Midnight by Brad Barkley & Heather Hepler

For review:

The Angel Experiment
School's Out Forever
Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports
The Final Warning
Max - all by James Patterson

Sorry about the lack of cover pics, I was too lazy to find some that didn't have that pesky "See Inside" banner. I hate those things.

Anyway, I'm excited to see what everyone else got! I usually get really jealous and have to drink a ton of Mountain Dew until I get so hyper that I forget about it. Healthy, right? Of course, the Mountain Dew binge occurs after I leave you all lovely comments saying how great your week was. See, at least I attempt (although, after this post it might be all in vain) to hide my burning envy.


DON'T FORGET TO ENTER MY CONTEST HERE! I'm giving away a free SIGNED book so stop procrastinating or whatever lame reason you have for not entering and GO ENTER NOW! There's lots (6 to be exact but possibly more if you think of a way to get the word out about it that I didn't) of ways to earn extra entries to boost your chances of winning.
