In My Mailbox is a weekly maeme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren and inspired by Pop Culture Junkie. It gives book bloggers the chance to share what they’ve bought/borrowed/received! Bought Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins - I think I'm the only one who hasn't read Perkins's Anna and the French Kiss (see Borrowed below), but I knew that I wanted to read Lola and bought it. Wishes and Stitches by Rachael Herron (kinde book) - I am a big fan of Herron's Cypress Hollow romance books. If you haven't read any of them, do yourself a favor and read one. Technically they might be considered "knit lit" but the knitting references aren't obtrusive and the romance is excellent. Borrowed Vietnamerica by GB Tran - I've had this one out from the library for awhile and I really need to read it soon. Graphic novel telling of a son's perspective of his family flight from Vietnam. This topic has meaning for me since I am Vietnamese-American as well and I am interested in Tran's story. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins - Yes I need to read this. |
For Review
Dearly, Departed by Lia Habel (from Netgalley) - Zombies. I love zombies. Victorian era zombies? Sign me up!
Wayfinder
by C.E. Murphy (from Netgalley) - I don't know much about this book but it looked interesting.
The Faerie Ring
by Kiki Hamilton (from publisher) - Tor was kind enough to sent this to Alethea, so I borrowed it from her. Not sure if it goes under For Review or Borrowed but here is it. This looks like it could be awesome.
That's what I have for this week. What's in your mailbox?
Dearly, Departed and The Faerie Ring look really good! Lucky you, hope you enjoy your reading! :)
ReplyDeleteWowie--I'm definitely buying Dearly, Departed! I didn't get the Netgalley. :/ But it's cool--I want that cover!
