In My Mailbox (57)

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 is like a month's worth of books for me, so don't be alarmed. I wanted to take pictures of non-review books as well but I got confused as they have been scattered across so many boxes and shelves that I don't even know where half of them are. Next week I'll try to be better!


For Review:
Abandon by Meg Cabot
Where She Went by Gayle Forman - WONDERFUL. How does she do it??
What Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen - She writes another winner, of course. :)
Betrayal: A Haunting Emma Novel by Lee Nichols
Playing Hurt by Holly Schindler - So excited for this! Thank you to whoever was in the power to make it randomly show up in my mailbox!

  19. I really like Meg Cabot's books. I recently bought a very good book. By several authors. Meg Cabot, Kim Harrison, Michele Jaffe, Stephenie Meyer, Lauren Myracle. Five different stories in the book. I loved it. Unfortunately, I do not know the English title.
