In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren, where we spotlight the books that we've received for review, swapped, or purchased that week. It's a really great idea and I'm excited to take part! :)
BORROWED:
Eyes Like Stars by Lisa Matchev
Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini
Queen of the Dead by Stacey Kade
Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys
Tiger's Curse by Colleen Houck
WON:
Dreamland by Alyson Noel
(Thank you so much to Lulu @ The Bookworm is Here for the book, the shimmery tattoo, and the extremely sweet sticky note attached to it! You're a gallon of awesomeness, Lulu!)
FOR REVIEW:
Slide by Jill Hathaway
Pure by Jennifer L. Armentrout
(A HUGE thanks to HarperCollins Canada and Spencer Hill Press for these! I'm serious — it took every ounce in my body to not read these books with exams coming up and all my summatives being due this week... but I know what I'm doing directly after! ;P)
And because this made me want to dance around like crazy:
YUP. You saw that right: my review was blurbed inside the ARC of Pure!! It just made my year — it was my first time ever getting blurbed in a book!! *happy dance* You should've seen me when I got this. My family thought I was going crazy haha! x)
And that's my mailbox! Thanks again to the library, Lulu @ The Bookworm is Here, HarperCollins Canada, and Spencer Hill Press for making this week awesome! :)
