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...


Won:
Thanks so much to Angie from Beneath the Jacket! I couldn't believe I'd been one of the winners from a quick Twitter contest she'd hosted not long ago. I've been so excited to read A Want So Wicked! 

Bought:

After falling in love with Maria V. Snyder's Poison Study a few weeks, I ordered the rest of the books in the trilogy, so I was very happy to see them arrive! I'm sure I'll be ordering the entire Glass companion trilogy afterwards as well.  

And I was so excited to get my hands on Cynthia Hand's Hallowed! All of the reviews I've read so far have been simply raving that it's just as good, if not better, than the first book!

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

And as always... Happy Reading!

    LUCKY WIN!!! A Want So Wicked! Ahh, so excited to read that! And I NEED to get my hands on Hallowed soooon. I loved Maria's Insiders books and Touch of Power, so I don't have a choice in reading PS. It's a given I'll love it, so I need to hurry the hell up haha.

    Awesome mailbox, enjoy! :D

    I loved Poison Study, but still have to read Fire Study. I only wish the covers matched.

    Happy Reading!

    Happy Readings!!

    Glad to see a new Maria V. Snyder fan. After you finish this series you should try Inside Out if you haven't already. Awesome book!

      Thanks! I bought The Thief b/c I need to read the 2nd book for my Children's Lit class and thought it'd be better if I read the 1st book so I knew more about what was going on. I read some of the reviews and people say it's a great read, so I'm hoping I will too!

      Thanks Amber! I'm more of a fan of Chloe's Chicagoland Vampires series, but her Dark Elite books are fun too. :)

    Hehe, so many sequels of books! And so many I want to read, but can't since I haven't read the first ones yet! >_<

    LOVE the cover of Hallowed... equally as shiny as the Unearthly one!

    Thanks for dropping by my mailbox! You are so lucky to have won a copy of A Want So Wicked. Congrats! I really loved Maria V. Snyder's entire Poison Study series and I hope you will too. I read them before they were even YA and when I found them on the YA shelf a few years later, I was so pleasantly surprised. Happy reading!

    Firstly, you're welcome!

    Secondly, what a great mailbox! I love Chloe Neill's Chicagoland series, but haven't picked up her YA series yet. Maybe it's about time...I also need to check out Maria V. Snyder. I've been hearing a lot about her recently.

    Happy reading!
