In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren. It's a great way to showcase the books you've gotten over the week, whether they are bought, borrowed or free.Here is what is in my mailbox this week...
Iron King | Iron Daughter | Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa
I have already read this series, but I had borrowed the first two from the library, and had gotten Iron Queen from NetGalley. I'm excited to add them to my collection!
The Hunger Games | Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
This is another series I had borrowed from the library. My sister picked these up, we already have Mockingjay.
Graceling | Fire by Kristin Cashore
I read and Loved Graceling, but still need to read Fire.
Incarceron by Catherine Fisher
I haven't read this yet, but I'm really looking forward to starting it!
WON:
I had won two giveaways in the past two weeks, and both books came in the mail this week. (Sqeeeee!)
The first book I won from Lori at Pure Imagination, who, come to find out, lives mere minutes from me! It was really great talking to her. If you don't follow her blog already, you totally should!
Dark Mirror by M. J. Putney
The second giveaway I won was a First Reads giveaway from Goodreads that was hosted by the author, T. Lynne Tolles. Along with the book, she also sent some really awesome bookmarks! Check it out...
This week was a great book week for me! I didn't get much reading done because I was helping at my kids school all week. I did manage to have some free time Thursday morning, and went book shopping with my mommy! I was able to pick up a lot of great reads! Check them out...

You got great books this week! I'm jealous :P Enjoy reading those you haven't read! xo
ReplyDeleteWow those are some amazing books! I LOVED the Hunger Games series! And The Iron King looks amazing! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteHere's my IMM if you're interested!
I love The Iron Fey series too! I had the first two on my nook and the third one I bought a physical copy. So of course that meant I had to buy the first two again for my shelf! I bought Dark Mirror a few weeks ago. I'm hearing mixed reviews on it though, but it seems really interesting. Hope you like it. Enjoy all of the new books!

ReplyDeleteTerrific mailbox! Really great books. I love The Iron Fey series and The Hunger Games! Congrats on your win. I've been wanting to read Dark Mirror. I have Somber Island on my Kindle. I love the cover! Cool bookmarks. I'll have to check out Betrayal. Happy reading :)
ReplyDeleteI've read all those books you bought except Incarceron. They were all such fantastic reads!
ReplyDeleteChel @ The Procrastinator's Corner
OOOOH You'll love The Hunger Games!!!!!!!!

Hi There,
ReplyDeleteYou have got some nice books . I have read The Hunger Games and Catching Fire and looovved them. I have Mockinjay phobia at the moment. Last book in series and can't bring myself to read it...lol!!
I loved the Iron Fey series I though The Iron Daughter the best, so far.
Michelle
Awesome books! I liked Fire just as much if not more than Graceling. I'm looking forward to seeing what you think of it! Happy reading!
ReplyDelete=) I need to read the Hunger Games as well are the Iron King Series!
ReplyDeleteWow, you've got some fab books this week! Congratulations on your wins too. It's great when you find another blogger who lives nearby :D
ReplyDeleteSome good reads here, I Love the Betrayal Cover :) Im an old follower
ReplyDeletewww.thephantomparagrapher.blogspot.com
Thanks for the thumbs up on Betrayal. I just looked it up on Amazon for the Kindle and found it for 71p. Bargain!
ReplyDeleteGreat book week - such pretty covers :D
ReplyDeleteHoe you enjoyed helping at the school. Have a great week :D
I <3 the Hunger Games. I'm very jealous of the stuff you've won! I'll have to go find Somber Island...
ReplyDeletePlasticine and Books (My IMM)
I really want to read Betrayal. I wish I had a nook :( Oh well, wow. You have an awesome collection of books in your mailbox this week! Absolutely stunning. The Iron Fey series is amazing, as is Graceling and Fire. I thought Fire was even more amazing than Graceling, but both of these books were absolutely wonderful to read. And congrats on completing your Hunger Games collection, that's really a must-have. Damn, you're so lucky to buy all of these in one week! :)
ReplyDeleteTake a look at what's in my Mailbox this week!
I've heard awesome things about The Iron Fey series .. I really have to order the first book !! The Hunger Games is one of my favorites series !! Hoping you'll love all these books !! Happy reading ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat books! It's always nice to add former library loves to the permanent collection :)
ReplyDeleteWhile I didn't love "Fire" as much as "Graceling," it's still a good book. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!
I still have to read "Incarceron," too ^^;
Congrats on your contest wins! I just finished reading "Dark Mirror."
Ooh, "Betrayal" for 99 cents on nook? *snaps it up* Thank you! I've wanted to read that!
Love the books! Iron Queen is not available yet here in my country and I am so frustrated. But I did read it already courtesy of NetGalley.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog.
You had a great week!! I like buying books that I have already read, because I still get books, but I don't add to the TBR pile! ;)
ReplyDeleteI loved Fire! Maybe even more than Graceling. I can't wait to hear what you think! Enjoy all the new books! And thanks for the link love!! :)
Good stuff, especially with the giveaways. I have the same issue with library books...sometimes I want to get a copy just for myself. I've been holding off on doing that until I'm in a more permanent residence, though (too much trouble when moving). Enjoy your new books!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. Thank you for posting about Betrayal! I just snagged my own copy for the Nook. I've got the entirety of the Iron Fey series on my bookshelf, too, but had to stop at reading The Iron King in favor of my library books. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteMarla @ Starting the Next Chapter
Great mailbox this week! I love the Iron Fey series and Fire and Graceling. Hope you enjoy Dark Mirror - I just read that one last week & thought it was very unique.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your contest wins! Happy reading :)
Hey Christy
ReplyDeletefirst of all, thanks for following me, I really appreciate it! :)
Second, your IMM looks great! I read The Iron King (the others are still to be published in the UK) and Graceling & Fire (they are both amazing, can't wait for Bitterblue).
Incarceron is in my reading pile, too :)
Looks like you're hot and heavy with series! :P Betrayal's got a gorgeous cover.
ReplyDeleteHere's my IMM.
Awesome books this week.
ReplyDeleteI just need to get the last of the Julie Kagawa books and then I can start reading them.
Betrayal looked good so I just checked it out on amazon.co.uk and got it for 71 pence. So thanks!
Loved Graceling but I have yet to read Fire either even though I have a copy somewhere.
Happy reading.
Sally.

ReplyDeleteBut, this is such an awesome list and you won some amazing things, lucky you. lol.

ReplyDeleteGreat IMM! I really want to read Dark Mirror, LOVE the hunger games series, and hadn't heard of Somber Island. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteMy IMM
Urg, the Iron Fey series. I absolutely adored The Iron King, but when I started reading The Iron Daughter, I couldn't get into it!I feel like I'm missing out on soo much.
ReplyDeleteIncarceron though. I just feel completely head-over-heels for that book. It's one of my all time favorites! Hope you enjoy it :)
Also, I love your layout. It's so simple, yet elegant at the same time!
Congrats on Dark Mirror. Happy reading.
