In My Mailbox (50)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme inspired by Alea and hosted by Kristi. Check out Kristi's post to see what others got in books this week!

I am incandescently happy.

  

For review:
I Will Save You by Matt de la Pena - I've heard fantastic things about this author, and so I'm looking forward to reading this. Thanks, Random House!
Bumped by Megan McCafferty - This utterly made my week when it showed up in my mailbox. Megan is one of my favorite authors (and you all know how I pimp the Jessica Darling books anywhere and any chance I get), and I have been waiting for this book since the deal was announced way back when. Thank you SO much, Megan!
The Transformation of Things by Jillian Cantor - From LibraryThing's Early Reviewer Program! I really enjoyed Jillian's YA novels and I'm sure I'll find the same good qualities in her first adult novel.


From Around the World Tours:
Wither by Lauren DeStefano - Okay, you guys. So, this book? It is INCREDIBLE. Definitely worth your wait and your money. I highly encourage you to preorder it NOW if you haven't yet already...and, knowing me and how selective I am in books I rave about, that's saying something.
Cryer's Cross by Lisa McMann - I'm in the middle of reading this right now. Lisa McMann fans will not be disappointed. It's so creepy!

  

Swapped:
In Dreams Begin by Skyler White
Love and Other Four-Letter Words by Carolyn Mackler
The Wager by Donna Jo Napoli

I've also been plowing through the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels that I've borrowed from my library, lol. Hooray for books! Hope you guys had a good week as well!

  14. I'm keeping my fingers crossed Wither will make it's way to my mailbox!:) I'm so glad you're reading Scott Pilgrim! Have you seen the movie? They did such a great job taking the books to the screen and they captured actual comic panels right on the movie screen-it was awesome!
