In My Mailbox - July 5, 2009


In My Mailbox is brought to you courtesy of The Story Siren. Each week I will let you know what new Young Adult (YA) or Middle Grades (MG) books made their way into my house. These are books I bought, begged for, or borrowed and will be happy to read some day!

Bought
I'm trying to cut back, again, on buying so many books. I did well this week!
Amazing Grace by Megan Shull - @ellenpotter tweeted that she'd read this book several times. 'Nuff said.
No Fear Shakespeare: Hamlet - for the Shakespearean Summer Challenge
Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen - for the Everything Austen Challenge

Begged
The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl by Barry Lyga - signed! Barry Lyga has is giving Free Books to Bloggers either to give to their readers or to keep for themselves! I've already given away one copy with a signed postcard. This one will go soon...

Borrowed
Working in a library is dangerous and not because of the kooky patrons. I did better this week and only brought home two books.

Wings by E.D. Baker - I've read Wings by Jason Lethcoe, I'm reading Wings by Aprilynne Pike, this will complete the Wings Trifecta!
Silver Phoenix by Cindy Pon - she is a Word Ninja!


Good week! I 3> reading! When I grow up, I want to get a job where they pay me to read books and talk about them...

So, what's in your mailbox?

  5. Thanks for the list. My bedside list grows daily. Now I have to stay awake long enough to work my way to the bottom.
