In My Mailbox (51)

In My Mailbox

IMM is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren. It is a way for book bloggers to post what they have received for review, borrowed from a friend, bought at the bookstore, or picked up at the library!

I received a few books this week that I am pretty excited about! Two review books plus three books I found at my local bargain book store make for a very happy Katelyn!

For Review:

Geek Girl

Geek Girl by Holly Smale (e-book)

My Thoughts: I have always been insanely jealous of people who are able to sprout off random, usually unknown facts off of the top of their head. Originally, that is what drew my attention to this book but I must admit, ALL of it sounds kind of awesome! Thank you HarperCollins!

My Wolf's Bane

My Wolf’s Bane by Veronica Blade (e-book)

My Thoughts: I received this book for a blog tour I am part of during the month of March. It has been quite a while since I’ve read a wolf book so I am really excited to read it! Thank you Crush Publishing!

Bought:

Calamity Jayne

Calamity Jayne by Kathleen Bacus

My Thoughts: I am part way through this book and am loving it so far! It is a murder mystery but it also so funny and I foresee a little romance in the future of this series (and I am always a fan of a little romance!) It came highly recommended by the woman who works at the bookstore so I figured I’d buy the first three books in the series (all under $3!) and see if it’s something I’ll like (which I most certainly think it is!)

Love-A-Thon Giveaway Items

In just under 3 weeks, myself along with Alexa from Alexa Loves Books, will be hosting the 2nd annual Book Blogger Love-A-Thon! (Check this post out for all the details) It will be a day full of spreading love to your old & new favorite blogs as well as mini-challenges, fun guest posts, and of course giveaways! While I was out shopping, I found an awesome deal on all of these books so I picked them up for one of our giveaways! If my bookshelves weren’t already overflowing, I’d be tempted to keep these for myself ;)

    I read “Viola in Reel Life” a few years ago, it was pretty cute.

    “Geek Girl” looks really cute!
    And I still really need to read “Wings”!!! :)

    Great haul Katelyn! :) I am also on the tour for My Wolf’s Bane. Sounds like such a good book. And I am really looking forward to taking part in the Love-A-Thon! Seems like it is going to be really exciting this year. You and Alexa are putting so much work into it.

    I love the Geek Girl cover! I thought it was a reprint of one of my favorite books by Cindi Bennett but I guess it’s a new one.
