In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren, where we all share what we got during the week!My goodies for the week: Loved Halo, so I'm really looking forward to delving into that world again. I still need to read Dark Heart Forever, but my daughter really liked it, so it's great to have the second---now I can read the two consecutively. The last three here, I bought at my final sad trip to Borders. When I went it was packed and I kept thinking it's so sad they couldn't get that kind of steady business when the company was still alive and kicking (but also squealing a bit inside at the great deals I was nabbing---so bad, I know.)

I'm very sad that my Borders is now closed because that was where I always bought all of my books. I really enjoyed Angel Burn... hope you do too!

I didn't get to go to Borders before they closed. It is sad. Now I don't have any good sized bookstores near me. They were all Borders :(
ReplyDeleteI want to read The Poison Diaries. I read an excerpt of it last year and thought it was good. I hope you enjoy it!
Wow, you got a lot of books this week with haunting covers, lol. I think I'm the only one in the world who liked Halo, so I'm really curious to see what you think of Hades. Can't wait to read your reviews! :D
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful books this week! I managed to make it to Borders too, it was so sad seeing nearly all the shelves empty :(
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy all of your books!
These books all look really great. I hope you enjoy them. Looking forward to what you think of them. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week,
Carina
i've been wanting to read chime for a long time!
ReplyDeleteAwww... no matter how many books I get, I always decide I want even more after reading through some IMM! This is one of those: Chime, Dark heart rising, Poison diaries... They look great!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the reading!

I kind of had the same feeling at Borders yesterday. When I got my first real job, my mom would continually reprimand me for spending so much of my paycheck at Borders all the time. It's sad to see the store end, but I did get some outrageous deals, so there's pleasure in the guilt.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy your books!
Ahh pretty books!
ReplyDeleteI am also jealous of how many HB u get too! Love Hardbacks!
Angel Burn is great! I really liked it, looking forward to the sequel. Been wanting to read Chime for a while too - happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, awesome haul this week! They all look sooo good. Happy reading :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic books! I really enjoyed Angel Burn. Hope you do too :)
ReplyDeleteLoving the cover of Dark Companion! Can't wait to hear what you think!

ReplyDeleteAngel Burn was SO so good! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! :)
ReplyDeleteBreadcrumbs is SO cute. I mean it was sad and stuff but it was CUTE! I loved it! And there were so many fairy tale references, Hazel was so witty. You should definitely check it out!
