In My Mailbox #17



I haven't done an IMM in a really long time. And I wasn't going to do one this week either, but then I went to Barnes and Noble and bought some books, so I figured I may as well get it out of the way. Here's the photo of what I bought and got for review over the last couple of weeks. There's only one review book in the picture.

For Review:

The Technologists by Matthew Pearl

Bought:

The Alchemy of Forever by Avery Williams
The Probability of Miracles by Wendy Wunder
Dragonswood by Janet Lee Carey
Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld
Switched by Amanda Hocking
 




As far as e-books goes, I've gotten a few of those for review too. But not a lot. I've been really picky about sending in requests for review books. I want to get through my OWN books. That's also why I have not sent in one ARC request to a publisher via email. I don't WANT books in the mail. Too much work and stress. But here are my e-arcs for review.

Partials by Dan Wells
Spellcaster by Cara Lynn Shultz
Lies Beneath by Anne Greenwood Brown


And they are all YA books this week except for one. Thanks to NetGalley, my husband, and a whole bunch of fantastic publishers. Also, look at this picture. Just look at it!


Have a happy day! What's in your mailbox? Ian, maybe?
