My Saturday IMM #16: The Big Pile



"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.





Because I cannot resist super cool prices, I was able to get Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
and Looking for Alaska by John Green.

Funny story: Hubs called me from the store the other day asking me if I had read The Hungers Games... "yes, but only the first book, why?"... "because you never asked me to go see the movie!"... "whoops!"
And then he came home with the boxed hardcover set!!!
I guess I owe him a date now ;)

 And I got a finished hardcopy of This Dark Endeavor by Kenneth Oppel -  
You can see my review right HERE! 

For review! I received this book from ZonderKidz :)
The Enchanted Attic: Facing the Hunchback of Notre Dame by L.L. Samson

And I won this book from Scholastic on Goodreads First!
Perception (Clarity 2) by Kim Harrington
Hmmm, guess I'll have to pick up book 1, Clarity, soon :)

And Amy of Book Loving Mom shared this arc with me :)
Thank you so much, Amy!!!
Destined (Wings #4) by Aprilynne Pike

I have the first 3 on my Nook...

I couldn't resist these images! Aren't they bumble-y and fairy-tail-ish???
