In My Mailbox #35

In My Mailbox was created by Kristi over at The Story Siren. The general idea is to share the books that you have purchased, that you have borrowed, or that you have found.

A little of this and a little of that, add in an awesome blogger event and voila... a mailbox that I am overjoyed with!

While I did sort of break that 'book-buying ban', I feel that it was for a good cause... Fracture was very necessary!

Without further adieu, here is this week's edition of 'In My Mailbox':

Review copies from Hachette Book Group, Penguin Group, Random House Canada, Sally Clements and Tendai Huchu:












The #RHBlogFest!! Special thanks to Lindsey, Adria and Cass at Random House Canada... and of course to Ami McKay, Erin Morgenstern and Paula McLain!!



I am now the proud owner of signed copies of these awesome books:












And... there may have been some awesome swag there too!












Bought (shhhh):

    1. The signed copy was actually my second copy of the book so keep your eyes out for a giveaway!! :)

  9. Signed books are always the best. I have myself a copy of The Night Circus but I haven't started reading it yet. I actually bought Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell as kind of like a companion book - again sitting unloved on my shelf. I should get to those books soon. :) The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry also caught my eye. Nice! Do enjoy your haul this week, most of your titles are pretty awesome.

  18. Yes I know that the movie is out but it will be released only in march here in France so I still have a little more time to read it before seeing it :).
    Wow that's a great haul ! I've bought The Night Circus and I really need to read it. It seems awesome and I read that Maggie Stiefvater (one of my favorite writer) loved it.
    And I also got an ARC of Fracture so I need to read that one too. I hope you'll like all these books. Happy reading !
