In My Mailbox


The "In My Mailbox" post consists of which books we bought during the past week, hosted by The Story Siren.


For review:


From the library:
  • Delirium by Lauren Oliver
    • Amazon | Book Depoistory | Goodreads
      • Dystopian novels have become the new fashion...  I'll admit however that I judged this book by its cover and title.  But so many people said it was good.  And that's when I decided to read the description and wondered why on earth I hadn't read this book yet.
For Review (e-edition):

Life is But a Dream by Brian James
I've only read one other book that really dealt with schizophrenia.  And it was beautiful yet scary all at the same time.  I'm looking forward to this one.  Thanks goes to Netgalley and MacMillan Children's Publishing Group.







The Night She Disappeared by April Henry
Have you ever had moments where you realize someone else's ill fate should have been your own but by chance or luck, it wasn't?  That's what intrigued me about this book.  It sounds like a good mystery.  Thanks goes to Netgalley and MacMillan Children's Publishing Group.







Purchased (e-edition):

My Blood Approves by Amanda Hocking
Since I loved Switched so much, I thought I'd give this book a try.  It has vampires in it, so it must be good (right?).

    Delirium is amazing! Hope you enjoy it :)

    I enjoyed Switched so much that I recently bought My Blood Approves as well. Haven't read it yet though.

    Thanks for stopping by my IMM!

    Born Wicked looks fantastic!! Enjoy! I loved Delirium and Switched, so I too purchased My Blood Approves right after! (Unfortunately, that was a year ago... a lot has happened!)
