In My Mailbox (38)

1:15 PM

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren where we share any new books or goodies we bought, received, borrowed, etc. during the week.

This week I got...


Bought:

I couldn't help buying a couple more books this week! I've been looking forward to reading Sometimes It Happens for awhile now and I thought First Grave on the Right would be a nice, little break from YA. There was only one copy left of Sirensong at my local Chapters, so I thought it would be a good idea to buy it before it was gone. (Also, it looks like I had a theme of buying books with white backgrounds this week.)

And I'm getting excited about Maggie Stiefvater's upcoming visit to Canada! She'll be signing and discussing Forever at three different Ontario locations next weekend and I'll be able to go to one of them! You can find details on the events here.

What about YOU? Any new reads/finds this week?

And as always... Happy Reading!

I'm a Canadian girl with a passion for reading! When I'm not escaping reality with a new book, I love to listen to Korean pop music or get addicted to Korean/Chinese dramas.

    "Sometimes It Happens" looks like a great read. :)

    I never have gotten into the Faeriewalker series. The covers are really nifty, though. :)

    Congrats on the Maggie Stiefvater event! She'll be in my state in August so of course I'm SUPER PSYCHED! Make sure you get some pictures and post them up! :)

    Happy reading!

    Kristen- Oh no! Hopefully the authors will have some time to sign some of the stock so you can buy a signed copy at a later time when you're off work.

    Tiffany- I've read a few of her novels and enjoyed them all (except maybe Aces Up...), and Sometimes It Happens sounds good!

    Daisy- Yay! I'm glad to hear you like the book!

    Chrystal- I'm sad we'll be missing the chance to meet again but I hope you have fun at the Blue Jays game!

    Comacalm- lol, I find it a bit amusing too!

    librarygal- I'll be at the Chapters Oshawa event...

    Amelia- Thanks, I will! I'm glad to hear Maggie will be coming to your state so that you can meet her too!!

    Honey- I'm sure you'll finish it in time! :)

    Great Haul!

    I'm so bummed I'm going to miss Maggie's signing. I was planning on going, but got invited to the cottage instead. *sigh* Oh well.

    Have fun at the signing!
