In My Mailbox (50)

In My Mailbox is a weekly event hosted by The Story Siren.

This week I received:

Awesome Netgalley titles:

The Weepers: The Other Life by Susanne Winnacker – Zombies, Dystopia, Romance, Los Angeles!

Monument 14 by Emmy Labourne – A survival type book with 14 kids trapped in a Walmart-ish store.

Shadow & Bone by Leigh Bardugo – The early reviews make this fantasy sound pretty great.

Before You Go by James Preller – An emotional realistic fiction with a male protagonist concerning life and death.

Monstrous Beauty by Elizabeth Fama – Mermaids! The synopsis sounds really good.

Struck by Jennifer Bosworth – This was a WoW pick of mine back in Sept. Excited to see it on NG!

The Raft by S.A. Bodeen – A survival book – the premise kind of reminds me of LOST.

Of Poseidon by Anna Banks – Have heard good things about this mermaid centered book. May have to prioritize reading this one!

From the library:

Falling in Love with English Boys by Melissa Jensen – Have pre-ordered The Fine Art of Truth or Dare by this author and wanted to check out her other book.

A Little Wanting Song by Cath Crowley – Loved Graffiti Moon by this author and since I also enjoy music themed books I had to pick this up.

I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone by Stephanie Kuehnert – Another music type book that caught my eye.

Irises by Francisco X. Stork – Two sisters have to take care of themselves and their mother after their father dies.

What did you receive in your mailbox this week?

  3. Hi Lucy, this is nice! You got a lot of new ebook titles, I see. I’ve been seeing a lot of Monument 14, The Other Life and Shadow & Bone around – will wait around to read the reviews to check out if they’re any good. Falling in Love with English Boys sounds about right for Valentine’s too. 🙂 Enjoy your new reads!

  16. I’m excited to see if you like A Little Wanting Son as much as Graffiti Moon. They both made me equally happy. I also want to read I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone–I saw Stephanie Kuehnert at that big book festival over the summer and she was so interesting.

    Happy reading, Lucy! 🙂
