In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi of the Story Siren and inspired by Alea of Pop Culture Junkie. It's a post where we talk about the books we received during the week either for review, from the bookstore or anywhere else.
It's been about a month since I last did an In My Mailbox post but this week I got some pretty amazing books so I thought I would share. I'm really excited about all of them. So here they are:
For Review:
- Wildefire by Karsten Knight (Simon & Schuster July 26, 2011) - I've heard some really amazing things about this book which made me really want to read it. I'm really excited to have received a review copy of it and I can't wait to get started on it.
- Fury by Elizabeth Miles (Simon Pulse August 30, 2011) - I haven't heard too much about this one but the summary makes it sound really interesting. I'm not entirely sure what to expect but I'm happy to have a review copy of it and I can't wait to read it but I'll probably wait until closer to the release date.
- The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin (Simon & Schuster September 27, 2011) - I can't believe I was lucky enough to receive an ARC of this book. I have heard so many great things about it, especially after it was featured at BEA two weeks ago. The premise sounds great and I cannot wait to jump right in. I just might have to bump it up to the top of my TBR even though it doesn't come out until September.
(Big thanks to Simon & Schuster Canada for all three of these books!)
Bought:
- The Girl in the Steel Corset by Kady Cross (Harlequin Teen May 24, 2011) - I've heard a lot of great things about this one and I love steampunk novels so this one sounds like I would really enjoy it. Hopefully I'll get a chance to read it soon!
So that's all I got In My Mailbox this week. Comment and let me know what you got in yours!
At BEA, we had the opportunity to meet Elizabeth Miles and listen to her talk/read from her book. It sounds super good - I hope you enjoy it, as well as your other books :)

ReplyDeleteYou got four amazing novels this week. Like you, I bought GitSC this week. I'm interested to read what you think about Fury.

'Wildefire' is definitely a fun and interesting read. I liked all the different mythologies mixed together like that. And yay for a non-white main character!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read 'Mara Dyer' ... there's just been so much hype for it, and everyone who's read it over the past couple of weeks seems to love it.
I just read 'The Girl...' last week or so, and I really enjoyed it. It was just a really cool and exciting book, all the action and the steampunk aspect.
Simon & Schuster surprised me this week too with some novels. I've been so excited for The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer!! Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat set! I really want to read Fury. Such a great cover.
