In My Mailbox (21)

Posted by

“In My Mailbox” is a meme, created by Kristi at The Story Siren, that features books I have

received/ purchased/ borrowed during the week. 

Hello my lovelies friends! I’m in a great mood today! So in case you missed it, Zombies Vs Unicorns month has launched! This event is hosted along with Literary Exploration, YA-Aholic and YA Bookmark, and so far it’s going great. There are already a few giveaways posted amongst the hosts and we have a fabulous month planned. Have you missed anything so far? Click here for all Zombies vs Unicorns months posts. I was also interviewed over at Reading A Little Bit Of Everything, if you want to know a bit more about me – click here for the post. Now for books, I had a fabulous week I’m very excited for everything that I got. Funny story: It’s a different delivery company who’s been coming lately, and the last time he came, I answered the door and he goes “It’s me…. again…” O_O Now I’m scared to get anything else. Baha. Or maybe I should mass-order to peeve him. We’ll see. >.<  You may also have noticed 2 new blog tours on the sidebar for March: Embrace and Channeler's Choice.

Now that you’re up to date on Xpresso Weekly, let’s see what I got this week.

I recieved for review (click on cover or title links for Goodreads):

 
I also got all of this fabulous swag. Some of which I will be giving away on the blog soon 😉

*I want to thank Disney-Hyperion, Marshall Cavendish, St. Martin’s Press, HarperCollins Canada, Hachette Book Group Canada, Brigid Kemmerer, Simon & Schuster, Simon & Schuster Canada, Random House Canada, Jill Hathaway and Megan Crewe for the review copies and swag.

That’s my loot for this week!

    O_O What a HAUL! Giselle, the floor of the room where you keep all your books must be positively sagging! Hahaha 😉 Hemlock and The Alchemy of Forever are on my TBR List. Curious to see what you think of them 🙂

    Have a fabulous weekend, lady!

    This is Not a Test looks SO good. 😀 I can’t wait for it to be released so I can read it myself. 🙂
    And I hadn’t seen the cover of Until I Die until today. 😀 It’s very pretty!
    Have a great week!

    Great books! You should totally do a massive order and make that delivery guy work for his money 😉 My mailman at work always says I’m the reason they employ him – he even brings big packages to my desk for me now!

    I have This is Not a Test envy. Big time.

    Happy reading!
