In my Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren and is a weekly meme where we highlight all the books we've gotten for the week.
This was a great week and I have a BUNCH in the mail for next week (can't wait!).
I'm pretty excited to share this weeks books though!
I got Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris (already finished!) and Burned by P.C. and Kristin Cast in the mail, pre-orders! And I ordered Chasing Brooklyn by Lisa Schroeder to make it $25 (just an excuse to buy it!).
I got Bleeding Violet by Dia Reeves and Willow by Julia Hoban at the library.
And for contests...
This is just a peek, I will not be showing you everything yet!
Naamah's Kiss by Jacqueline Carey (my favorite author!)
This is for my birthday event (review and giveaway) and for the Once Upon a Read a Thon (prize).
So thank you Jacqueline!
I also got something pirate themed today! So I'll be having a pirate themed giveaway for My Favorite Things. It's going to be awesome!
So what was in your mailbox?
Have a fantastic Mothers Day!
I am looking forward to reading Burned and Dead in the Family!
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy!!

Great books for this week. Look forward to hearing what you think about Bleeding Violet!! I liked it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading
I never read a book by Jacqueline Carey, but that cover is pretty! I'am looking forward to your review of it. Maybe I will add it to my tbrlist. :) Have a wonderful reading week.
ReplyDeleteI have never read anything by Harris yet but have seen her books mentioned and reviewed on other blogs. Think I need to check them out soon! have fun reading all the lovely titles you got this week.
ReplyDeleteOoo you got some great stuff! It's almost time for me to read another Sookie book. I'm only on the 3rd lol. You will love Chasing Brooklyn. I hope you like Bleeding Violet and Willow. I loved both! BV is a little different....but I thought that was fun! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHey Candace!

Dead in the Family looks like it's going to be a terrific read. Your little boy -- in your profile picture -- is adorable. :-) Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVED Willow, so I hope that you do! And I got Burned last week, but I haven't had a chance to read it yet. I hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteNina, this trilogy can be stand alone but I fell in love with Kushiels Dart, the first in the Kushiel's Legacy world. It's become three trilogies now, but I think the first 6 books are pretty much a series. Just the 2nd trilogy has a different main character branched off from the first trilogy. The first book starts off slow because of the world building but the second half picks up and then the second book is AMAZING! Kushiel's Chosen has pirates (YUMMY!) and LOADS of adventure! Next month I'll be posting about all the books and an interview with Jacqueline Carey. And maybe I'll get more books of hers for giveaway. I'm going to her signing June 18th.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Dead in the Family! I'm still deciding whether I want a hardback book 10, and that's the only reason I haven't bought it yet ... should I ... shouldn't I ... hmmm. Can't wait to read your review :)
ReplyDeletehappy reading! My mailbox is at The Crowded Leaf.
