"In My Mailbox" is a weekly meme created by
The idea is to post whatever 'books' you may have received from the week (before), whether you purchased them, gifted to you, borrowed, traded, etc.
Well, remember for the last few weeks I've been saying that I don't want to buy any more books because I have so many already! and I really want to read most of them before I get any more... sigh... but my shelves look so bare, and there were some super cheap prices at Best Bargain Books, and our tax refund came in, and... well, you know... !!! So it ended up being a pretty awesome week :)
Here's what I got:
Here's what I got:
Ghostgirl by Tonya Hurley (paperback)
I am head-over-heels for this book! The girly pink/black theme, the shape of the book - it's rectangular!!! the illustrations and style - the whole story just captured my heart right on the spot! I cannot wait to finish this and try to track down the rest of the series! If you see them anywhere at a really good price, please let me know!
City of Glass (The Mortal Instruments Series #3 - paperback)
by Cassandra Clare
Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices #2 - hardcover)
also by Cassandra Clare
Funny story about this one - I meant to buy the first book and accidently bought the 2nd book, oops! So much for trying to start the series soon, lol! At least I'm prepared to continue with the series, right?! and should probably continue with The Mortal Instruments first...
AND, lastly, the first book that I ever bought through The Book Depository came in this week :)
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins (hardcover)
*Books I received for Review:
Pretty Amy by Lisa Burstein (ebook) and
Kevin's Point of View by Del Shannon (Middle-grade/paperback)
And, lastly, but certainly not least - what my boys got this week :)
For my 5yo, the new Splat the Cat book, Secret Agent Splat by Rob Scotton.
And for my 8yo, Diary of a Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney - which he finished in 3 days!!!
