In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren, and it's an opportunity to show off all the books we've gotten!
I do my IMMs every other Saturday. Here are the books I've gotten the past two weeks. I've put myself on a book buying ban for the foreseeable future, so these were all at least technically free. Once again, I went a little crazy at the library. But I had to make walking there in the snow worthwhile somehow.

Aw, thanks Kate **blushing**
ReplyDeleteNice haul from the library! Looks like it was worth the cold walk!
Yeah, probably :)
DeleteAnd I was excited to be able to use the words "magnificent" and "munificent" together. If only you were more evil; then I could have used "maleficent" too! lol
Hahaha, I'll try to work on being more evil so you can use maleficent. Lmao.
DeleteOnce again, great haul Kate! I havent read any of those Kate so I'll wait to see what you think of them. Although I do have Evernight to read for my DB challenge this month. And I am about to start reading Touch of Power - I got a copy from the library before Jen went and did her awsome stuff...
ReplyDeleteHey, that's too easy! DB and BotM as the same book? Psshh. lol :)
DeleteI might start having to use the library more. I have a problem. I can't seem to stop buying. So book buying ban starts now.

Haha, I have the same problem with the library, but at least that way it's free! :)
DeleteAmazing haul! I'm really excited about A Million Suns! Happy reading :)

I really enjoyed The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms. I hope the sequel is just as good. Enjoy your books!

I just finished Touch of power about 3 days ago. I loved it! Gave it 5 stars. And Finnikin on the Rock I've heard great things about, too. I recognise a lot of the covers here from my own (ginormic) TBR. Have a great week :)
