In My Mailbox #23


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! :)


FOR REVIEW: 

Grave Mercy by R.L. LaFevers
The Hunted by Kristy Berridge
Unraveling by Elizabeth Norris
Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

*dances in that embarrassing way that makes people want to look away* Look at these amazing books! Don't you just want to hug them?? I sure do (and did)! A gazillion THANK YOUs to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Kristy Berridge, HarperCollins Canada, and Macmillan for sending me these!

Also, I already had an ARC of Shadow and Bone, so I'm working on finding a beautiful new home for this extra one, but it's amazing nonetheless! Seriously you want to read this book! :)


BORROWED: 

Above by Leah Bobet
Blood Feud by Alyxandra Harvey
Out For Blood by Alyxandra Harvey

I've already read and completely adored Blood Feud and Out for Blood because they're both such fast and fun books! The Drake Chronicles series is easily becoming one of the sweetest group of one-night-reads ever I can't get enough! 

And that's my mailbox for this week! I don't think it's possible to not be excited whenever you get a book in the mail! ;) Thank you so much again to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Kristy Berridge, HarperCollins Canada, Macmillan, and as always the fantastic publisher representatives and authors for these beautiful books! :)

WHAT'S IN YOUR MAILBOX? 

-Mimi

P.S. Have you guys watched The Hunger Games movie yet?? I went to see it on opening night and it was AMAZING! You guys should definitely go watch it!! :)

  3. Great selection Mimi! I can't wait for Grave Mercy and Unraveling to be released so I can check them out. I'm definitely adding Shadow and Bone and The Hunted to my list of must haves, they sound awesome. I so agree with you about the Drake Chronicles, that's a great series to re-read. Above is on my shelf to read asap, so many books so little time!

    Thank you for sharing Mimi! <3<3<3

  4. Oh, Unraveling! I'm so glad that you finally get it, Mimi! It seems like you always got books that you picked on your Waiting on Wednesday LOL, just like The Immortal Rules! You're so lucky! <3 I hope it's as awesome as it looks! :)

    Above seems amazing, and I haven't read The Drake Chronicles series, so I'll be anticipating your review! Have amazing week, Mimi, and happy reading! <3

  6. YAY, MIMI. I'm so happy to see you reading the Drake Chronicles series! It's one of my all-time faves and I CAN'T WAIT for you to read Bleeding Hearts, which is my favorite in the series thus far. Blood Moon feels so far away! :K

    And HOLY COW BABIES you get to read Above?!? How exciting is that! Not to mention Grave Mercy AND Shadow & Bone, which I have e-ARCs of, THANK GOD. I'm so happy for you! I hope you enjoy all of these!

    Have an amazing reading week!

  12. Oh my gosh, Mimi, those books are more than awesome! These past few days I've heard great things from Grave Mercy. You have to read it and tell me what you think! And wow, Unraveling -from just the summary- sounds like an amazing book.

    Shadow and Bone! Since you told me it's so good I've had my eyes on it, I'll have to buy it as soon as it comes out :) I don't really know if I'll read Above... too dystopian-ish for me, I think :(

    Have an incredibly wonderful week, Mimi! ♥ Meanwhile, I'll be updating you on my process with The Immortal Rules (she's already found Zeke!!! *fangirls*) :)

    OH DEAR GOD EVERYONE GOT GRAVE MERCY! AAAAAAAAAARGH! SO JEALOUS! *takes a deep breath*

  18. Grave Mercy! If I finish the book I'm reading today, I am starting GM tomorrow. I've heard AMAZING things about it, so I really hope we both enjoy it, Mimi! Great haul there - I got Shadow & Bone, as well, and you better believe I squee'ed. HEE. I'm going to feature it in my next IMM since I had several already in this week's.

  19. Ohh, Shadow and Bone! I'm still yet to read the first book, though. I really must! I've heard AMAZING things about it! And Grave Mercy, woohoo! It looks so neat in paperback! I'm yet to read the galley. It's next in my TBR pile :) And UNRAVELING! Omg. I'm so jealous! I've been eyeing it ever since I read the blurb in various WoW posts and your Cover Crazy post!

    I'm yet to watch the Hunger Games movie but almost everyone who has watched it has raved about it! I can't wait to watch it! I'll probably go this week. I would've on Friday if I hadn't been out of town! I'm glad you loved the movie, Mimi!

    As always, great haul! Have an awesome week <3

  23. Ohhh, I love the Drakes so much, but I just can't seem to choose a favorite brother. I'm torn between Quinn and Nicholas, it's an impossible choice.
    And I'm so happy you got Unraveling, I just know you're going to love it.
