Revenants by Amy Plum - Won



I hope your all well and that you have been reading some amazing books. I sure have. And it’s all thanks to John Green and the amazingness that is The Fault in Our Stars, which I am currently reading. Seriously, SO SO SO GOOD. (Whenever possible I slip it into the conversation, see I just did it. HA! Sorry, but TFIOS makes me hypo and crazed… Read it! *shoves in face*) Feel free to link me and I’ll try to swing by! Happy reading J

Here's what I've received in the past 2 weeks:
Won:

Philippa Gregory prize  - I now own 2 copies of Changeling… Apparently The White Queen, The Red Queen and The Lady of the Rivers are all Adult so it looks like mum will be busy reading! ;D Plus, a poster which I just couldn’t be bothered taking a photo of – whoops!


Article 5 - I’m very picky when it comes to Dystopian but this one sounds intriguing, so hopefully I’ll enjoy it! Since Brodie is so fantastic she also chucked in few swagalicous items just for the heck of it and because she’s so sweet! <3)
For Review:
Unravelling by Elizabeth Norris – EEEEEEEEEEE! SUPER excited to start this one, it looks fab!

Deadly Hemlock by Kathleen Peacock – This was a surprise in the mail but I have heard it’s surprisingly good so we’ll see…
(A huge thanks to Brodie @ Eleusinian Mysteries, Read Me. Love Me. Share Me, Harper Collins and Simon & Schuster!)
I hope you’ve had a great week and received some amazing goodies! Any surprises in the mail this week? Feel free to share!

I was unsure (and still am) about what I should do about the whole IMM situation, and have decided to just do my own thing showcasing the books I receive in the mail. So without further ado, here it is!

Inspired by The Story Siren's IMM, Peek into My Mailbox allows me to share all the marvellous, bookish goodies I receive in the mail!



Storm Glass by Maria V. Snyder – Haven’t yet read anything by this author but my epic friend, Sarah RAVES about her.

When You Were Mine by Rebecca Serle - For Review. This looks SO good but I’ve heard it’s heartbreaking, so I better prepare. Will be reading this soon!



Divergent by Veronica Roth – Won ARC. Will be reading Divergent very, very soon. Promise.


Grave Mercy by R.L. LaFevers – EEEE! I promised myself that if I saw any of the books from BooksI’m Wishing For: April Edition, featured in store I wouldn’t be leaving until I’d bought them. So I was completely surprised when I spotted Grave Mercy in Dymocks and of course I couldn’t go back on my word, could I now. HEHE

Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins
Leaving Paradise by Simone Elkeles – I LOVE the Perfect Chemistry series so I’m real interested to see how I like this series.

Looking for Alibrandi by Melina Marchetta – I adore this book! Adore, adore, adore! I read this last year and finally took the plunge and bought my own copy! Yay.

Storm by Brigid Kemmerer  - Story: I was in Kmart looking at cards and then all of a sudden I looked up, turned my head and I was in book land! I immediately stopped what I was doing and went on a book browse and that’s when I saw Storm! I technically have a US edition already but I saw the Aussie edition in the shop and…well…one thing lead to another and I bought it.

A Temptation of Angels by Michelle Zink  - This book looks amazing and I’ve only heard fab things! Thanks Michelle for the beautiful, signed copy! I can’t wait to read it!


Sweet Evil Swag - Won

(A huge thanks to Simon and Schuster, HarperCollins Australia, The Tales Compendium, Cuddlebuggery, Michelle Zink and Wendy Higgins!!)

Phew! *swipes brow* Now that that’s over… What books invaded your mailbox this week? Any lovely surprises?
