In My Mailbox (21)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren. It gives book bloggers the chance to share what they’ve bought/borrowed/received! 

I hope everyone had a good week. It was really dragging for me and I am so happy that we have Monday off. I am going to try to get a lot of reading done this weekend. I have some catching up to do before a couple of book tours come to town next week. This week was pretty light for me. I am still trying to read books I own and have cut back on the library and buying. Edited: Um, so I went to the used bookstore and B&N on Sat and came home with a bunch of books. Guess this week wasn’t so light. :)

Bought
Delirium by Lauren Oliver – Yes, I am one of the few people who have not read Delirium yet. I want to read it soon since Pandemonium is coming out.

Blood Bound by Rachel Vincent (audiobook) – I had at least 4 Audible credits doing nothing in my account and decided to download some audiobooks. A friend said that this was a good one on audio and I’ve been meaning to read it anyway.

A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness (audiobook) – Another audiobook that a friend highly recommended. Jason Isaacs reads.

The Mediator #1 & #2 by Meg Cabot – Found the first two books in this series for $0.50 each at the used bookstore. We’ll see if I like it enough to get the rest.

Smooth Talking Stranger (Travises #3) by Lisa Kleypas – $1 at the used bookstore. I haven’t started this series yet but, when I do, I will have book 3 all ready for me.

Devil In Winter (Wallflowers #3) by Lisa Kleypas – Can you sense a theme? Yes, I may be obsessed with Lisa Kleypas. I am dying to read book #1 of the Wallflowers series. I will probably get it on my kindle.

Stray by Rachel Vincent – Another series I’ve been meaning to start and only $3.50 at the store.

River Marked by Patricia Briggs – I love the Mercy Thompson series! This just came out in paperback and I had to get it for my collection.

After The Golden Age by Carrie Vaughn – I totally bought this just because of the cover. I mean the synopsis sounds good, too, but I picked it up based solely on the cover.

Borrowed (library ebooks)
The Gathering by Kelley Armstrong – I’ve been wanting to start this series for awhile now. Thank you, library!

Fire by Kristen Cashore – I know. I know. I haven’t even read Graceling yet but this became available in my library’s ebook database and I had to snatch it up. Hopefully I will start Graceling soon.

For Review
Pride and Popularity by Jenni James – I really have no idea why this came to me. I don’t think I signed up for it or entered any giveaways for it. Came from the publisher to my house. Sounds kind of interesting but I am not sure if it’s really my thing. We’ll see if I get a chance to read it.
