In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren that allows to showcase the books that we have received/purchased over the past week.
So I’ve decided to take part in another meme called In My Mailbox. This is going to be my way of sharing with you guys all the great books I’ve got in the last week as well as to give you a heads up about what kind of reviews are coming up. So here goes.
Bought:
Everyone meet Belinda! I finally got myself a kindle! Yay! This will make reading books that I have to review so much easier. Instead of having to read my e-galleys on my laptop all the time, I can just take my kindle with me and read on the go. How exciting is that! Thank you, Amazon!
Ah! Defiance! The fourth book in one of my favourite series ever and I bought it for myself! Honestly, I don’t remember the last time I bought a book unless it was a textbook. I’m so happy. It was so awesome. Thanks to me!
Received/ Borrowed:
Wow, I’ve really wanted to read this one for a while. I actually requested it on NetGalley but I didn’t get it. Luckily, Lisa from BaffledBooks agreed to lend it to me. Unfortunately, I haven’t started it yet mostly due to her warnings to sleep with the lights on after. Uhm yeah, thanks a lot Lisa.
For Review:
I have to thank NetGalley for all these books as well as the publishers, which include: ABRAMS, Random House Children’s Books, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.
So, what’s in your mailbox?

I hope you love your new Kindle as much as I enjoy mine – which is still pretty new itself 🙂
K, the Popinjay. said:
Oh I will! I’ve already enjoyed it quite a bit so far and I’ve only had it for two days.
Jenny said:
Yay Kindle!!!! I absolutely adore mine, I have no idea how I got along in life before it came to me:) It’s just so easy to buy books (which gets me in trouble but I love it). I’ve heard the Lili St. Crow series is awesome, I really want to start that one:)
K, the Popinjay. said:
Oh yeah, I can see the obsessive book buying becoming a problem in the very near future. And it is awesome. You have to read it. There’s some real character development and relationship development across the series. It’s absolutely BRILLIANT. Lili St. Crow is a genius.

Congrats on the Kindle. How’d you pick out the name Belinda? I loved The Near Witch.

Thank you. Actually, the name just came to me. And it fit. 🙂

Congrats on your Kindle purchase!
I totally missed Pilgrims Don’t Wear Pink on NetGalley. Gonna have to go back and get that one.
K, the Popinjay. said:
Thank you so much! You really should. The cover and the name are so misleading. It took checking it out on Goodreads to make me realise I had to have it.

You got a nice list of books this week in your mailbox. Congrats on the Kindle. I went to B&B yesterday to check out their Nooks. Hopefully soon I will have an e-reader too.
I hope you enjoy your new books,

Why yes, yes I do. It’s actually quite a surprise and thank you. E-readers are so convenient though sometimes I catching myself actually trying to flip a physical page.

I just got The Near Witch too. I’ve heard fabulous things. Plus Victoria Schwab will be at Decatur Book Festival in two weeks! Yay!

Ugh. I live in the Caribbean. No authors come here for book signings or conventions or anything. But yay for our The-Near-Witch sisterhood! Yaaaaay!
