In My Mailbox {64}

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

Got some cool stuff this week!
Bought:
Through Her Eyes by Jennifer Archer
Old creepy houses, mysterious artifacts, and a ghostie---I had to have this one!

For Review:
Six Moon Summer by SM Reine
Werewolves! So far, I've seen nothing but good stuff about this book, so I'm excited!

The Vivatera: Secrets of Everstar by Candace Thomas
I requested this one from the author because the cover and title drew me in and the story sounds so intriguing! I was surprised I hadn't seen this one before!

Bloodspell by Amalie Howard
Witches, betrayal, curses, and girl whose blood runs black?? This looks amazing! And the cover is even more gorgeous in person!

Happy Birthday to Me by Brian Rowe
Like I do with all books that come in the mail, I read the first few pages of this when it arrived. Three chapters later, I almost couldn't put it down! Looks good!

Are You Going To Kiss Me Now? by Sloan Tanen
Bit of trivia for you: the author knew John Hughes and she is who Ferris Bueller's girlfriend is named after! ( I adore that movie!) Now, that alone might have been enough for me to accept this one when it was pitched, but what's great is that the story looks hilarious, too!

And last but not least..Wildefire by Karsten Knight! (wouldn't fit on the shelf, so it gets a solo shot!)I was dancing around when I got this one!! I've been excited for this one for awhile now! It wasn't even dressed up in it's awesome cover and I was still drooling over it! Being about Polynesian goddesses, this debut holds a special place in my anticipation list---I was a hula and tahitian dancer for years! :D

Tons of thanks to Simon & Schuster, Sourcebooks, Langdon Street Press, Brian Rowe, SM Reine, & Candace Thomas!

Show me those mailboxes---because, you know, my wishlist needs to get just a little longer! LOL
OH, also, I got three more books from the amazing Traveling Book Box hosted by Moonlight Book Reviews, but those will be shown on a seperate post on Monday! I'll be showing what I kept and what I threw into the box before sending it on!

Happy reading, everyone!

    Wow! Awesome mailbox.....you've mentioned so many "new to me" books that I am adding to my TBR list. I really like the premise of Six Moon Summer and Wildfire. That's pretty awesome that you were a hula dancer--so cool! Enjoy all of your books!
