In my mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren in which you share the books you added to your collection in the past week.I didn't do IMM last week because I was sick and couldn't be bothered, but it occurs to me now that I have this giant list of books that I really need to make this a weekly segment. Anyway, here's the 20+ books I've acquired in the past two weeks:

I read If I Stay in a single sitting this last week. Incredible is an accurate description, rarely does a book affect me so emotionally.
DeleteWow, you got some great freebies and your library must be GREAT! I'm very impressed with your haul :) I hope that you enjoy everything that you picked up this week!
ReplyDeleteHere's my IMM!
I'm not gonna lie, my library is probably my absolute favorite thing about living where I do. The county system is fantastic, and ordering inter library loans online is so simple, I'm constantly getting books from all over delivered (for free!) to my local branch. It's very rare that they don't have what I want.
DeleteAmazing books this week!! I hope you enjoy them :)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading and check out my in my mailbox!!

Thanks! =)
DeleteA Flight of Angels has absolutely gorgeous drawings - Enjoy all your books :) I adored Cinder.
ReplyDeleteI was totally entranced by A Flight of Angels. One of the most visually beautiful books I've ever read. I adored Cinder too! I blew through it yesterday, was really taken with it and I cannot wait for the next one.
DeleteSlumber looks really great :)

DeleteSo jealous you got This is not a Test. It sounds so good and I love Courtney Summers. Hope you enjoy it!

A Beautiful Madness
I'm so excited for This is Not a Test! Definitely the galley I was most excited for this week.
DeleteSo many good ones! I haven't seen a lot for about Tessa Masterson, but it looks good :] So does Partials, This Is Not a Test, Cinder, and yeah, I could go on and on :P The Emerald Atlas is in my library haul this week too. Great minds ;]
ReplyDeleteI saw that! Great minds indeed. Hoping to listen to a few parts of Emerald Atlas tomorrow, and I'll probably be reading Partials very soon.
DeleteOh wow you had a fantastic haul! I can't wait to read Cinder I'm amazed by all the rave it's gotten!

I just wrote my own rave for it today! Though it won't be posted for a couple of weeks yet. I loved it though.
DeleteNew follower! Awesome haul - especially the library books! If I Stay is amazing, and my daughter loved The Emerald Atlas! Here is my IMM if you'd like to follow back: http://theonceandfuturelibrarian.blogspot.com/2012/01/in-my-mailbox-4.html
ReplyDeleteAgreed, If I Stay was amazing. I've been meaning to write up my review of it for days now and just can't find the words to talk about the impact it had. Love the blog name. =)
DeleteDo you know I just added Blood Will Tell and Slumber to my TBR pile and can't get them because they are only available through Amazon and I have a Nook?! Little annoyed, poor planning if I do say so myself!
ReplyDeleteBwahaha! Sorry, that sucks! Do you guys have a tablet or anything? You could always download the Kindle app and read them through that.
