In My Mailbox #20

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren where bloggers show what book they received that week, via mailbox, library, bought, borrowed or any other way. It's a great way to see who's reading what so make sure you head on over and join in! 


Fantastic week I had! I went into a charity shop and got some great books, and my sister gave me a couple of books too! Here they are:


For review
The Look by Sophia Bennett
Eeeeeeep! I was so delighted to get this, not only because of the gorgeous cover and the PINK PAGE EDGES but because Sophia is one of my favourite authors and her book are always brilliant! Look out for a review and blog tour for The Look in March!


Bought
Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli
Another pink book :) This has a beautiful cover and I've heard it's amazing so I can't wait to read it.


Timeriders: The Eternal War by Alex Scarrow
OMG does this look incredible or what! I've been dying to read this series, and even though it;s the fourth book, I don't care!


Hidden Child by Anne Cassidy
I actually have another of Anne's book that I haven't read, but this was very cheap and everyone says they're good, so... :)


Won/Gift...?
Kitty Slade: Venus Rocks by Fiona Dunbar
This just turned up in the post unexplained with a note saying congratulations! Hmmm, a mystery! As far as I'm aware I haven't one any competitions involving this book, but,I'm not one to turn down a free book! Especially because I love Fiona Dunbar and the first book in this series. And the cover is gorgeous too!


Borrowed
August by Bernard Beckett
This looks good, it hasn't got the best reviews but I'll give it a go -  especially because the cover is so cool!


Hunting Lila by Sarah Alderson
YESSSS! Everyone says this is fantastic and I can't wait to read it! 


What did you get in your mailbox?

  1. Wow! Fab books! The Look sounds a-m-a-z-i-n-g, and so does Hunting Lila. I have read one of the Kitty Slade books and really enjoyed it and that one looks good too. Happy reading! :-)
