In my Mailbox (49)

I had an awesome book week this week. The majority of what I got were complete surprises!

This week I got ...

Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins (US hardcover)
I finally ordered this after hearing so many good things about it.
Envy by Gregg Olsen (US ARC)
I was so excited to get this and have already finished reading it even though it won't actually be out until October.
David by Mary Hoffman (UK paperback)
Passion by Lauren Kate (UK paperback) + soundtrack CD
Kisses for Lula and Lula does the Hula by Samantha Mackintosh (UK paperbacks)
This arrived in the most amazing package ever complete with a lei (the flowery thing they wear in Hawaii, chocolate and lip gloss)
Witches of the East by Melissa de la Cruz (UK paperback)
I've never read any of Melissa's books. Maybe this is the place to start
Halo by Alexandra Adornetto (UK paperback)
The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater (UK proof)
This arrived in a brilliant little tube along with a awesome letter from Maggie about the book which was almost as awesome as receiving the book itself. I can't wait to read it.

Thank you as always to kristi the wonderful story siren for hosting IMM
