In My Mailbox (11)

Posted by


“In My Mailbox” is a meme, created by Kristi at The Story Siren, that features books I’ve 
received/ purchased/ borrowed during the current week. 

How’s it going this week? I just got back from the Santa Claus parade which was great and my son loved it – it was his first time seeing it. We had wonderful weather for it too. What else is new!? I went to see Breaking Dawn! I found a few parts very cheesy but all in all I really enjoyed it. I think my favorite is still Eclipse though (which is funny because it was my least favorite of the books).

I hope you guys are all happy with your haul this week. I didn’t buy any books since we’re saving up for the holidays, but I’ll be all set with the awesome review copies that I got.

Here’s what I got for review (click on cover for Goodreads):

I want to thank Marie Landry, my Goodreads friend Tina, Simon & Schuster, Lerner Publishing Group, KC Neal, Harlequin and Random House for the review copies.
Make sure to stop by for the upcoming Blue Sky Days and Airel blog tours!
Dates can be found in my sidebar.

    I really haven’t heard too much about any of these so I’m curious to hear your thoughts! Good for you for not buying anything this week! I was less successful on that front…

    You’re lucky that your theatre had a sense of humour. I was the one laughing at every cheesy part and guffawing at the werewolves talking to each other scene while girls would give me dirty looks! hah

    Breaking Dawn had some pretty funny parts. A lot of it really was cheesy, though. 🙂

    Also, New Girl looks great! I really love the cover. Happy reading. 😀

    I haven’t seen Breaking Dawn because I’m kind of (just kind of…) lost interest, but who knows, maybe I will change my mind someday. I’ve seen Eclipse like five times. Hehe. Isn’t it nice? Anyway, Airel sounds very interesting. I like the cover! It’s pretty! Unraveling Isobel sounds good!! I like the cover too!! Belles sounds very interesting. The cover is beautiful! I have to check these books out sometime. Great mailbox. Thank you for sharing!!

    Really looking forward to hear what you think of Unleashed and Unraveling Isobel since I really want to read these two. I got New Girl as well. The other books you received look great, too, so I hope you enjoy all of them. 🙂

    I got new girl this week also but forgot to add it to my IMM, so I’ll be popping it in next week. It looks fantastic and I can’t wait to read it!

    I got New Girl too! I’m really looking forward to reading it, it sounds amazing! 😀

    Oh, New Girl! I’ve seen this title on Netgalley but decided not to request it since I’m a little bit behind with my review copies and I have some exams coming up. You’ll have to let us know if it’s worth reading! 😉

    Hi, Giselle! Thanks for stopping by. You have a very nice haul this week. It looks like The New Girl is going to be one of those books that is on most everyone’s IMM this week. 🙂

  18. Brodie

    Ahhhh so many fabulous books! I’m super excited for New Girl, Belles, Drowning Instinct and Unleashed. They sound so good. I hope you enjoy! 🙂

  19. Mimi Valentine

    You went to the Santa Claus parade?? Oh my gosh, that sounds like so much fun! I have to say that Christmas is my favourite holiday season of the year because it’s just so jolly and giving! 🙂 Plus, I went to see Breaking Dawn too and I totally agree with you — the Eclipse movie was my favourite! 😉

    Awesome mailbox this week, Giselle! All of your books look so cool and I can’t wait to read your reviews! 🙂

  20. Sara @ Through the Looking Glass

    So many lovely covers! Love Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguie books, and Unleashed looks like a wonderful beginning to a new series. New Girl looks so good, especially after I read the very mysterious ending of the Goodreads summary. Plus, the cover is a underwater. How cool is that?! Gotta love underwater people.

  21. Shellie

    Great mailbox. Airel is a really good book, that was one of the first ones that I got on my Nook. =) enjoy can’t wait for your review!

    Great new books! Ariel looks like a very interesting book.

    I haven’t seen Breaking Dawn yet or read the book. Even though I have all four books I’ve only read the first one and part of the second.

    Happy reading!

  23. SweetMarie83

    I think we both know which one I like best! LOL It’s so exciting to start seeing it in peoples IMMs. 😀
    The other books look really good, I’m going to have to head over to GoodReads and check them out!
    Glad you enjoyed the Santa Clause parade!

  24. The Princess of Storyland

    Wow! I wish I could get that many bks without having to buy any! Lol They all look good! 🙂 And I can’t believe you won The Future of Us! Your so lucky. I’m gonna read my copy soon. I’ve heard its really good and funny. I could use some funny! lol

  25. Louisa

    I love the covers for Airel and Drowning Instinct! So pretty! Happy reading! And sorry for the late comment, been busy with play 🙂
