In My Mailbox (16)

Thanks to Kristi at The Story Siren for hosting In My Mailbox every week.

Books Purchased:
  1. His Darkest Hunger by Juliana Stone (this book was released on my birthday & I've been waiting ages for Amazon to deliver it!  I'm really looking forward to reading this so you shouldn't have to wait too long to see a review for this one)
  2. Leaving Paradise by Simone Elkeles (I loved Perfect Chemistry and have heard great things about Leaving Paradise so I had to order it)
Library Finds:
Full Moon Rising, Beneath A Darkening Moon & Circle of Death by Keri Arthur - Keri is still a fairly new author for me but I've been really enjoying her books and am currently working my way through her backlist (which is quite an impressive list LOL)

Competition Prizes:
I won a signed ARC of Mistress by Mistake from Maggie Robinson and a copy of Hell Fire from author Ann Aguirre after they both held giveaways on Twitter.  Both of these books look fab & I'm looking forward to reading them!

For Review:
I received copies of Frostbitten by Kelley Armstrong and The Iron Hunt by Marjorie M. Liu from Orbit this week.  I am already a fan of the Otherworld series by Kelley Armstrong and am busy catching up with the books so I can read Frostbitten.  I've not heard much about The Iron Hunt but I love the description & I think it's going to be one I'll really enjoy.

What was in your mailbox this week?

While you're here don't forget to check out my giveaway for The Island by Sarah Singleton - it's international and you don't have to be a follower to enter (although of course I'd love it if you were LOL).  It is open until the 30th April & you can enter by clicking here

  6. @ Prophecygirl - I loved Perfect Chemistry!! Let's hope we both enjoy Leaving Paradise as much - I have heard great things about it though :o)

    @ Heather - I still haven't started reading the Riley series but I do have the first 2 books in my TBR pile so I'll be getting to them soon :o) I do love all of her books that I've read so far though!

    @ Christina - I can't wait for Leaving Paradise either! I also really need to get my hands on Rules of Attraction :o)

    @ Sparklybearsy - I must start the Riley series! I love Nikki & Michael and the spook squad series but haven't tried Riley's books yet. I will get to them soon though :o)

    I absolutely can't wait to read His Darkest Hunger!! I feel like I've been waiting forever for that one so I know I'll be reading that one this week!

    I really love looking at everyone's IMM but every week I end up adding loads of books to my wishlist :o)

    @ Chrissie - I'm looking forward to both of those. I'm a bit behind on the Otherworld series so I'm trying to catch up before I read Frostbitten - I love Kelley Armstrong though :o)

  7. Great books this week! I can't remember if I've ever mentioned on your blog if I'm a huge Kelley Armstrong fan... but I'll say it again if so! lol I hope you enjoy Frostbitten. It's sitting on my shelf as well, and I need to read it but haven't gotten around to it. *sighs* I hope you enjoy all of the books you received this week though! Happy reading! :)
