In My Mailbox (12)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme sponsored by The Story Siren.  It is a way for bloggers to network and share what books they are reviewing, borrowing, and/or buying.

I'm back - finally! After two whirlwind weeks, I've finally had a chance to do an IMM post.

This week I have a pretty big haul. Between attending the Decatur Book Festival and my trip to Barnes & Noble, my "to be read" pile has grown quite a bit. BUT, there's no such thing as too many books, right?

From Decatur Book Festival

Quite excited to add these three novels to my pile of books to read. The Unwanteds and Wildwood are signed.


From B&N

I love this time of year because I find the most interesting novels. Since I collect "witchy tales," I usually find great reads to add each year.

When I saw Glow, I knew I needed to add it to my pile of reads. There is quite a bit of buzz surrounding this book, so I hope it lives up to it for me.

I wish I would have bought Anna and the French Kiss at the festival since Perkins was there signing, but hearing her speak did encourage me to want to read it.

 
From the library

While looking for my next audio, I stumbled across Wonderland by Tommy Kovac, a graphic novel of the famous tale. The illustrations are amazing, so I cannot wait to dive into it.

I've never read Beastly but almost have meant to add it, so I grabbed it the moment I saw it as an audio. I hope I love it as much as many of my students have.


And that's it for this week's finds. Have you read any of these? Do you have witchy suggestions for me?

Happy reading!

  1. I just finished Anna and the French Kiss. I was a little skeptical to read it, since I didn't see how it could be as good as everyone said it was. But it definitely lived up to my expectations.
