In my Mailbox (34)

 IMM in hosted by the lovely Kristi at www.thestorysiren.com

Please forgive me if I'm MIA this weekend I am marking GCSE scripts for exam board and am on stupidly tight deadlines (made worse by the fact I am off to Scotland to see my younger brother next weekend). I will make up for it in half term and become a commenting machine!

While you're visiting enter my Long Reach Giveaway! UK only 5 copies up for grabs!!




Delirium by Lauren Oliver (UK Proof)
The Gorgeous Jesse for books4teens.co.uk sent me this. He is now officially my favourite person (shh don't tell Hadley)

When the following two books arrived I did a happy dance - you probably know why!

Across the universe by Beth Revis (UK proof)
Words cannot describe how much I am looking forward to this!!

Between shades of gray by Ruta Sepetys (UK proof)
This is completely different to the book above which I received in the same package but I am so excited to read it (with my history head on). If you've not heard anything about it find the author's website and check it out as the trailer is heart breaking!)

Hexbound by Chloe Neill (UK hardback)
I am so excited about this one. I loved the first book and can't wait to get stuck into this.


The Cabinet of curiostities by Paul Dowswell (UK paperback)
I received this out of the blue. I haven't heard about this author before but I think I might have to check out some of his other work as it sounds exactly like my sort of thing.

Rockoholic by CJ. Skuse (UK paperback)
Another one I received out of the blue and haven't heard much about. I've since heard good things and am quite looking forward to it.

I got an arc of Delirium this week too! So excited to read it.
I got Across The Universe and Hexbound a few weeks ago but I haven't gotten around to reading them yet.
Between Shades of Gray looks good I may have to look into buying that.

Here's Mine:

After wavering about it, I just bought Across The Universe this morning for my kindle. I'm only a few chapters in but it's exciting stuff. And I have read Delirium, and loved it. All those look really good!
Great book week this week, I love the sound of Rockaholic and Across The Universe.

Happy Reading :D

P.S I'm glad Delirium arrived safely :D

Great haul! I admit to not being a big fan of Delirium, but it's certainly a well written book. Happy reading!
