In My Mailbox #43

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.

First off, I want to wish all of my followers and those visiting through The Story Siren's page today a very Happy Easter. I hope that all your bunny dreams come true and you have a truly blessed day!

Okay friends, it has now been a month since I put the book-buying ban in place and I am still going. I would like to stay strong, but that doesn't apply... so we will leave it at going. Surprisingly, I have so many of the current releases on my shelves that when I go into Wal-Mart, I don't feel overly tempted. Now, that being said, I have not made my way over to Chapters because even I know my limits!!

Without further adieu, here is this week's edition of 'In My Mailbox' (as requested, you can now click the covers and be taken to Goodreads):

Review copies from Thomas Allen & Son, Simon & Fig, Blue Dot Literary, Tara McTiernan, Bloomsbury and Random House Canada:





 Gifties... I love when Hubs surprises me with books!!

  1. Thanks for the comment :)

    Great IMM! I thought about requesting Bad Hair Day on NetGalley, but then I didn't - I'll wait until I've seen some reviews.. Awaken and Barefoot Girls look really good! Hope you enjoy your books :)

  3. Great haul! A friend of mine loved Blood Red Road. I bought it myself a few weeks ago but haven't had a chance to start it. Must be awesome though.
