In My Mailbox: Week 4

Hey everyone!  I am so sorry this is late, but to be honest, I totally forgot about posting this.  I was so busy today, that it had slipped my mind!

In My Mailbox is a weekly feature hosted by The Story Siren, where I talk about the books I received either from buying, ARCs, gifts, library, etc...

This week, I went to the library to pick up a book for my book club.  It's the only book I received this week sadly.  I hope to get my hands on a few more books this coming week though!

Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor  Amazon  ♥  Goodreads

I'm actually really excited to read this book!  I started it last night, and I'm 32 pages in, and so far it's been really enjoyable.  I've heard so much good things about this novel and it's author, that I'm really interested in getting to the meat and potatoes of this story!

What did you all receive this week for your IMM?

In My Mailbox: Week 3

Terribly sorry I've been M.I.A. this past week.  I've had some family issues, and on top of that I was a little under the weather.  So I really didn't get much reading done :\

Anyways, this past week, I bought a few books from the thrift shop!  I have to wonder if I should start worrying when they know me by name there.

I'm thrilled to have my first two ARCs!  I am going to breeze through them this week since I have a week off from work (not as exciting as one must think), and then I cannot wait to start reading The Italian Secretary by Caleb Carr.  I'm a huge Sherlock Holmes fan, and I've heard really good things about this book.

Hope everyone had a great weekend, I can't believe tomorrow is almost Monday.

In My Mailbox: Week 1

In My Mailbox is a weekly feature hosted by The Story Siren, where I talk about the books I received during the week either from buying, ARCs, gifts, library, etc...

This is my first week doing this, and I'm just letting you all know.  I buy a lot of books.  It's sort of a bad habit of mine.  Usually, I spend most of my days off of work at the thrift shop, book store, or used book shops.  This past week, I went a little nuts with the buying.  All of the books I received via the thrift shop or Half Price Books.

The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella  Amazon  ♥  Goodreads

I'm really excited to read these, especially Matched by Ally Condie, and The Devil's Rooming House by M. William Phelps.  I'm a huge fan of serial killers (not that I would you know, date one or be pen pals with one, or you know, become one.  Just putting this out there because I can only believe some of you are side eyeing me, and slowly backing away from your computer to call the F.B.I.).  and I love books that are dystopian themed.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!
