Mailbox Monday #10
Mailbox Monday is a weekly event created by Marcia that travels to a new blog each month. Join in to share your book loot and discover some new book blogs. Jennifer at Mrs. Q Book Addict is the host for the month of July.
These are the books I received last week:
Bought:
Found some good deals/impulse purchases this week
Just Flirt by Laura Bowers – Something light and fun.
Graveminder by Melissa Marr – Looks like a good horror story to save for Halloween.
Dreamless by Josephine Angelini – I liked Starcrossed okay but felt it didn’t make the best audiobook. Want to see if reading the second book is a better experience.
E-Books for Review:
The Brides of Rollrock Island by Margo Lanagan – US release of an Australian book, looks like an intriguing fantasy about mermaids.
Library:
Glimmer by Phoebe Kitanidis – All the reviews I’ve seen make this book sound crazy and I was too curious to pass it up.
Fever Crumb by Philip Reeve – Steampunk YA Audiobook
Sync YA free audiobook downloads of the week:
Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake, read by August Ross
The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins, read by Ian Holm
Have a great week!

enjoy your books and hope to see you at sdcc!
You did great this week. Such good books.
I have had The Woman in White on my Kindle for soooo long and still have not got around to starting it – I really need to make more time in my reading list for the classics. Enjoy all your titles!
Fever Crumb sounds good and I really like the cover.
Graveminder rocks, I think you’ll really like it.
Happy reading!
Oh, so many pretty covers! I hope you enjoy them all.
The cover of Fever Crumb reminds me of Enclave’s. I like it.
Happy reading!
The Woman In White caught my eye, they all sound interesting.

I just picked up The Woman in White at our library’s used book store – needed a couple more books to make a full sack! I also downloaded Anna Dressed in Blood (hooray!) so I’m looking forward to that one. I read the digital review copy of Dreamless and was not a fan for the most part, but maybe the final version fixed all the things I had issues with? I really want to read The Brides of Rollrock Island; looks so good!
Just Flirt does look like fun! Enjoy your new books!
Something tells me that my month break from reading YA isn’t going to last as long as I thought! LOL
I keep hearing about The Brides of Rollrock Island…sounds like a good one! Enjoy your books this week!
Great looking books in your mailbox!
These look perfect for you. Happy reading!
I hope you enjoy everything you got this week!
Oooh … Anna would be so good to listen to on audio! I hope you like it.
Enjoy your reading!
Graveminder looks cool, but I also think Just Flirt would be a cute read too. Anna Dressed in Blood is good! Enjoy
