In My Mailbox (24)

"In My Mailbox" is a meme, created by Kristi at The Story Siren, that features books I have
received/ purchased/ borrowed during the week. 

I hope everyone had a fabulous week because this week was my BIRTHDAY! Yay! We went out today to celebrate with steak an lobster. It was delicious! I didn't actually buy any books this week but I did receive a few review copies that can count for birthday gifts, right!? I also got a cake, I left it on the coffee table and my toddler found it this morning. He was quiet for a few minutes, so I came to see what he was up to and he was stuffed full of chocolate. Then I sent him off to his grandparent's. Teehee.

This week at Xpresso Reads was zombilicious. Make sure you haven't missed any zombie fun by clicking here.  I also posted a massive cover reveal -here- with some lovely new pretties. And I scheduled a new tour for Someone Else's Life. I already had a copy for review so I was happy to be asked to take part of the tour as well. Oh, and I've still got 5 open giveaways, don't forget to enter (found on sidebar), as a couple of them are ending soon!

Let's see what I got for review this week:

 A huge thank you to Thomas Nelson, Tabitha Vale, J. Meyers, Macmillan Publishers, Nikki Jefford, JL Bryan and Penguin Canada for the review copies.

  7. NICE! And happy birthday! :-) I hope you had a wonderful time celebrating your special day.

    I see a few titles there that catch my eye, so I will definitely check them out on GR.

    Confession time: I've never read a Zombie novel. Just not sure it's my thing. Any suggestions for a first-time read?
