In My Mailbox is a weekly blog post hosted by Kirsti over at The Story Siren and inspired by Alea at Pop Culture Junkie.
A decent week for books I'd say!
Last Sunday I hit another closing Borders and relooked over their bargains and found one, but since it was a second book in the series I had to go to another store and buy the first book!
Allyson James' Stormwalker and Firewalker! I ended up getting the second one for $3.50! And I had a coupon for the other so that was a deal to, it came out 2 for 1 at regular price!
Born at Midnight by C.C. Hunter! This took a little digging to find. I went on Thursday after it released and it wasn't on the shelf, so after asking for help the sales assistant found a copy in back! Yay!
Then in Maria V. Snyder's book trivia contest--which I always enter and am somehow always the first one to enter, since Magic Study! I got a SIGNED After Hours: Tales from the Ur-Bar copy of , an anthology of miscellaneous tales by different authors. Think Canterbury Tales!
Then I also downloaded an e-book onto my Kindle: Betrayal by Mayandree Michel. This was only .99 cents!
This is another Greek mythology themed YA book!! So can't wait to read it!
And while not a book or immensely book-related I also bought 2 necklaces from Etsy shops, Bella Lili created the smaller one layered over the larger one with beads, and Cemetery Cat created the pentagram one! I saw them both and just fell in love with them! I had to have them!
And that was my fabulous mailbox this week! What did you get?!
Born at Midnight has been looking so good!!!! Those necklaces are really cool :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the awesome books!

Nice books!
ReplyDeleteI've heard great things about Born at Midnight! Hope you enjoy it :)
Great books this week! I've been eyeing those Alyson James books for awhile myself! Thanks for linking up the .99 kindle book! It looks great! I just clicked over and downloaded it myself :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you think of Born At Midnight. Also, I totally had Betrayal on My Wishlist yesterday and I never noticed that it was only 99 cents! Gotta get that one ASAP!
ReplyDeleteAs for Bite Me/ Try Me/ Fang Me... I read them, but I haven't reviewed them yet. I would really recommend getting them because a) they are awesome and b) they are free! The formatting is a bit wonky on the Kindle, but you can still totally read them!
Oh! I didn't realize that Betrayal was only 99 cents for the kindle! Yay! I'm definitely picking that one up.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on winning a signed book! I love Poison Study. Such an amazing book! I still need to read the Glass series.
I've never heard of Stormwalker. I'll have to go check it out!
Born at Midnight sounds great. I can't wait to see what you think about it.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE bargain books (sad to see bookstores closing though!) but when I see a bargain book I like I have to grab it too. I just got a bunch of B&N bargain books today in the mail, so those will be in my next IMM :D
I've seen the book Born at Midnight all over the place, the cover looks FABULOUS, at some point I'm going to read it!
Congratz on getting the signed books too - that's awesome!
