In My Mailbox (42)

11:51 AM

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...


Received for Review:

Thanks so much to Scholastic Canada, HarperCollins Canada, and Random House Canada for sending these novels to review! (The Project has a really shiny, red cover that's hard to capture with a camera...)

Bought:
 
My sister was really happy when her order for Texas Gothic came in this week so she could pick up. We kept waiting for the book to arrive in store, but we still didn't see it at any of our local Chapters' so we just went ahead and ordered it instead. I can't wait to read it, so I'll definitely have to borrow the novel from her when she's finished reading it!

And I finished Fateful at 4 a.m. this morning! It was so unbelievably good! My Mom came into my room, noticing my light was still on and told me to go to sleep, and I was like, "I CAN'T!!!". (But, you know, in a whispered tone because it was late.) 

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

And as always... Happy Reading!

      Excellent haul, Liz!

      I'm dying to read Fateful. Be sure to let me know what you think of it. And The Scorpio Races has already been shipped? Didn't know. I guess I should be expecting mine to arrive within the next week.

      Enjoy them, Liz. And don't forget to tell me what you think of Fateful =)

      i had not heard of Texas Gothic, but it sounds fabulous.

      and also, is there anything better than staying up into the wee hours of the morning reading an amazing book? i daresay there is not.
