My Saturday In My Mailbox #15: The New Bookshelf Edition

"In My Mailbox" is a weekly meme created by 

The Story Siren 

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.

First, I must show off the new bookcase that my sweet hubs got for me this week! Isn't it pretty :)

Here's what I treated myself to this week... 

I couldn't take my eyes off of Entwined by Heather Dixon - gorgeous cover for a beautiful story, can't wait to read it!  

Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices #1) by Cassandra Clare - Yay! I now have book 1 to read before reading book 2, lol!

Fire (The Seven Kingdoms #2) by Kristin Cashore - I really needed to get a finished copy of this before Bitterblue is released!

Dreamland (A Riley Bloom Book #3) by Alyson Noel - I have turned into a huge Alyson Noel fan! I've been trying to catch up on both the Immortals and Riley series before the new series, The Soul Seekers, is released!

And lastly, Portrait of a Starter: An Unhidden Story by Lissa Price - I just finished reading Starters, this was an awesome prequel to it, best $1.99 I've ever spent :)

For review: 

A finished/signed copy of The One That I Want by Jennifer Echols!

Frost (eBook) by Kate Avery Ellison 

I won some books recently :)

I wasn't planning on buying any books this week, none at all, lol! 

but I saw this one on sale at our local discount book store and have seen good reviews for it! So of course I just had to get it! 

Someone Else's Life by Katie Dale 

My kiddo's school had another book fair this week - 

at the bottom of this post you can see their haul from the book fair (they've been upset with me for not sharing their awesome finds too, lol!) and from the discount book store too... anyways, I treated myself to these 2 books from their school book fair! Gotta support, right :) 

Radiance and Shimmer from the Riley Bloom Series 

by Alyson Noel 

And, Ivy from Ivy reads shared these ARCs with me,
thank you so very much, Ivy :)

Partials by Dan Wells (I. Cannot. Wait. To. Read. This!)
Amplified by Tara Kelly
Across the Universe by Beth Revis (Another must read now!!!)
and
Pink Smog: Becoming Weetzie Bat by Francesca Lia Block


Quick Question!!!
Has anyone read the Weetzie Bat series???
Do you suggest that I read the first book or two of the series before I read this???
 There are such mix reviews about it, I have never heard about the series until now and it sounds like a good one, but I want to do it right - where should I start, please ;)


Thank you SO very much for stopping by and checking out my haul this week!
