In My Mailbox (1)

Hello everyone!

I'm really excited to be participating in the awesome meme In My Mailbox! It's hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren and features books that bloggers have received during the week.

So, since my blog just started, I decided to do a massive IMM, including books that I've received over the last month. I'm also making a huge one because I probably won't be doing many, if any, during March. I'm on a strict "no buying books" ban, hoping to save my money for all the books out in April. 

Here are the books and swag I've gotten recently!

Mom's Thrift Store Buys:

So, my mom really loves to shop at the thrift store. Sometimes, she picks me up books. Although I try to keep my books in the best shape possible, when they cost a dollar, I'm flexible. This week she picked me up:

- Tales of the Otherworld by Kelley Armstrong (Amazon | Goodreads)
I already own this book, so I'm thinking of having a giveaway in honor of Moonlight Gleam's Women of the Otherworld Reading Challenge. More on that later!

- Ghost Story by Jim Butcher (Amazon | Goodreads)

Borrowed:

I want to send a huge THANK YOU to Emilie over at Emilie's Book World. I mentioned on Twitter how excited I was to read Fever by Lauren DeStefano, and Emilie tweeted me that she had an ARC that I could borrow (we live in the same city). I was elated! We met up, shopped around, and she lent me Fever, which I proceeded to finish in a day. So, thanks Emilie! It was really great of you to lend it to me!

For the launch of the Lunar Chronicles series, author Marissa Meyer asked everyone to tweet a picture of themselves wearing red shoes. Anyone who did so would get a package of swag! I received a couple bookmarks, a signed bookplate, and some stickers. Thanks, Marrissa!
