In My Mailbox #38

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.

Happy March everyone! This week seems to include a little bit of everything... some purchases, some review copies, a WIN and of course, my favourite, some Kindle freebies. I have also started to record my IMM's as well as my monthly TBR's and you can subscribe to my You Tube channel to watch or stick to the regular format here... whichever you prefer.

Before I share my awesome collection of books with you, I thought I would show you one of my bedtime reading buddies, Bosco. Each and every night, he cuddles with my while I read and he is so stinkin' cute!!


Don't you just love furry friends?

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

Review copies from Random House Canada, St. Martin's Press, Penguin Group, and Jennifer Echols:













A few purchases... it was actually ONE purchase of an entire series:













Last, but certainly not least, the freebies (Kindle or WIN's):













What was in your mailbox this week?

  2. I read Hocking's books as self-pubs, but I really want to get copies of them now that they are published! The covers are so pretty.

    Sloppy Firsts and the rest of the series - SO good!

    Hope you enjoy them all!

  7. I might have to give Amanda Hocking a go as she's been talked about so much lately as a self pub success gone mainstream.

  17. OMG!! I love Bosco!!! My kitty used to do the SAME EXACT thing, rub the book non-stop, and then curl up in my left arm while I held my book in my right hand! I had to say goodbye last month (I'm much better, don't worry) but my dog just doesn't cut it for me (but I DO love him at my legs!!)

    You got so many awesome books this past week! I can tell you like your contemps as well para's :) I just wanna know when you can read all that great stuff?!?!?! I have Switched sitting on my shelves waiting for me (grrrr) I just checked out the Jessica Darling series and even tho I don't do contemps often, I might just have to pick up that one b/c it got great reviews and sounds hysterical!

    Thanks for visiting me (sorry, I babble)! New follower!

  23. Such a cute cat! I have two but they don't really like to snuggle while I read. :( Great haul! I really want to read Starters and I've read Sloppy Firsts and I thought it was okay, but that was a long time ago, and I know a lot of people love the series so I want to read it again. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, and happy reading!

  39. Awesome mailbox! I got Torn on Tuesday, when it was re-released, and I read it that night and absolutely LOVED it! I'm so jealous that you got Ascend, I'm dying to get my hands on it! I own Hollowland, but I've yet to start it and need to do that soon. I've also heard so many good things about the Jessica Darling series, so maybe I should pick up a copy of Sloppy Firsts. Enjoy your reads! Thanks for stopping by!

  49. I am crazy excited to read Starters. I love me some dystopian and this one sounds FANTASTIC. I got Torn aswell and very eager to dive in, I really enjoyed Switched! Must read more of Amanda's books soon.

    Great haul this week, hope you enjoy!

  50. I found Sloppy Firsts on the Teacher Book Swap shelf at work last week and was soooo excited! I've heard it (the whole series)is soo good!

  51. Hi, Lindsay! Thanks for dropping by my IMM! :)

    Oh my goodness. That's a whole lot of books you got this week! (And what an adorable cat!) While I haven't heard of many the books you were sent, I'm intrigued by Torn and Ascend by Hocking. It's got mixed reviews, so I really want to see what more people think! Apparently you've also gotten Hollowland by the same author. I wonder what that's like, too.

    I hope you'll enjoy all the books you've gotten. Have a great week! :)
