In My Mailbox {43}

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

This week I am sick..blaahhhh. So, I didn't feel much like getting out of bed and setting up shelves to take photos. Besides, I only got one book this week---but OH what a cool book it was!! I read it in one day, it was completely un-put-downable! Thanks to Around the World Tours for the chance to read this one! I'll be putting up an early review in the next few days and then featuring it again (probably with a giveaway!) when it hits shelves in February!

Cryer's Cross by Lisa McMann

On a related note, I'd also like to say that I've been to a couple of blogs that have the countdown widget for this book and every time I hear it, it completely freaks me out. My son was sitting near me and he heard it---completely freaked him out as well. LOL---he says "Mom, what was that?? Did you hear that??" I think he thought our house was haunted! (He watches too many scary movies!)

  20. I've never heard of that book before, but the cover looks interesting. I may have to check the synopsis out on Goodreads.
    I'm almost scared to look on blogs now, in case I hear the noise and it freaks me out too :(.
    Happy reading :)
