In My Mailbox {80}

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

Here's what I got this week! SO excited about all of these!
Bought:
In the Arms of Stone Angels by Jordan Dane
Bright Young Things by Anna Godberson
Got both of these at the Border's clearance. :( Sad to see it go, but I can't resist good books at a discount.

Traded:
Legend by Marie Lu
Thanks, Kelsey!! I have been excited about this one for ages!!

For Review:
The Shattering by Karen Healey
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor
Both of these came in the most awesome "Thank you for blogging" package from Little, Brown. With it was the cutest beach towel featuring one of their new children's book characters. So cool!

The Taker by Alma Katsu
Freaked out when I got this one! I've been wishing for this one since I saw it released in the UK,...so excited that it's finally coming the US!

So..I did get a few things new on my nook this week, but right now I'm just too tired to add them on here. Possibly a post of their own tomorrow LOL.

Thanks so much to Little, Brown & Co., Simon & Schuster, and Kelsey for the lovelies in my mailbox this week! :D

  16. @I Read Banned Books

    Yup, both Daughter and Shattering had the original covers on them. The one you have is probably the final cover, with the mask on it! The original has got me curious as to why she is transposed with a goose LOL. Or is that a swan? I guess I need to read it! :D

    @Rubita Yes! Had Sergio the penguin on it, wearing lots of floaties! :D
