In My Mailbox {31}

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren, where we all share what we got during the week!

Got some pretty cool stuff this week! I was pretty excited! :) Here we go...
For Review:
Radiance by Alyson Noel
It's a Book by Lane Smith
(I know it looks like a children's book, but it's got some surprises!)
Jane by April Lindler
Plain Kate by Erin Bow

(Many thanks to Macmillan, Little Brown and Co, and Mary of Sparkling Reviews!)

Purchased:
It was another fantastic trip to the used book store! Found great stuff!!

Reincarnation by Suzanne Weyn
Had to try more by this author because I loved Distant Waves.

Outside Beauty by Cynthia Kadohata
Four sisters fighting to stay together, this sounds so good.

Empress of the World by Sara Ryan

I wanna be your Joey Ramone by Stephanie Kuehnert
Who can resist a title like this, really??

Seer of Shadows by Avi
Another that caught me with a cool cover, the girl looks so eerie. Plus its about ghost showing up on photography in the 1800s. Cool!

My Soul to Save by Rachel Vincent

What the Dickens by Gregory Maguire
Rogue Tooth Fairy and written by the creator of Wicked?? I'm sold.

The Dream Makers Magic by Sharon Shinn

Wildwood Dancing by Juliet Marillier

Past Midnight by Mara Purnhagen
This is the only one shown not purchased from the used book store :) I've been excited to get my hands on this one--bought it at Barnes.

Library Checkouts:
Loving Will Shakespeare by Carolyn Meyer
I can only imagine how romantic a YA book about being in love with the teenage William Shakespeare would be!! :)

The Thirteenth Princess by Diana Zahler
A retelling of The Twelve Dancing Princess where a secret 13th sister has to rescue her cursed sisters!

Ok, show me what you got!! (because my wish list needs to get longer, huh?) :D

  4. "Radiance" by Alyson Noel - I'm going to wait for the German vision of the book... maybe. Seeing it in every journal as a good read my confidence is getting a bit low.

    "The Thirteenth Princess" - I like (modern) fairytale- interpretations -> going on my wishlist!

    Have a happy reading time!
