In My Mailbox #71

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi from The Story Siren

This was one of the best weeks I've had in a long time, and of course, receiving more books made it even better!  


Review
-Requiem by Lauren Oliver
-Spellcaster by Claudia Gray
(Finished copies from HarperTeen)

(Finished copies from Simon & Schuster)

Won
-Unraveling by Elizabeth Norris
-Erasing Time by C.J. Hill
-Everbound by Brodi Ashton
(ARCs from Rachel @ The Annex)

-Revolution 19 by Gregg Rosenblum
(Finished copy from Christen @ Goldilox and the Three Weres)

Of course, I couldn't hold off on reading Requiem or Delirium Stories, so I read them immediately.  I actually really loved them both and I'm very grateful that HarperCollins sent them to me, otherwise I would have been waiting a while to finish one of my favorite series.  I also began Spellcaster and I can already tell this will probably become another favorite.  Look out for reviews of those this weekend / upcoming week!


Look at how beautiful these covers are!  Seriously, this picture doesn't do them any justice.  They've got that velvety matte touch and some parts shine when they hit the light.  I'm in love.  Although I have no idea why I received these, I'm thankful to get the opportunity to read all 15 of the stories because I never got the chance to as a kid.  

Thanks for stopping by!  What have you received in your mailbox?

    I'm shocked my keyboard still works because of all the drool on it. Ok, that sounds weird but I could help falling in love and drooling over those Oz covers!

    Spellcaster sounds like a book I'll fall in love with, not very good considering my heart might explode if I fall in love with another book...

    I think I'll start the Delirium series soon, everyone seems to love those books.

    Thanks for sharing and enjoy your weekend!

    The Oz books by L. Frank Baum are beautiful! I just saw the new Oz movie, but was a bit underwhelmed by it.

    I almost picked up Spellcaster this past week, but decided to wait because I have soooo many other books i want to read.

    Enjoy all your goodies. Happy reading :)
