In My Mailbox is a weekly event hosted by The Story Siren & inspired by Pop Culture Junkie. It is a way to feature the books you purchased, traded, borrowed or received for review each week.
I’m still focusing on NetGalley books this month, but a few other books snuck through the door this week:
This week I received:
Won:
The Catastrophic History of You & Me by Jess Rothenberg (LibraryThing Early Reviewers) – Lauren Oliver’s blurb got me excited to read this book.
Bought:
Touch by Jus Accardo (A kindle impulse purchase) The reviews have been pretty good.
Audible Credits:
Anna & the French Kiss and Lola & the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins – Just released on audio format this week. The narrator for Anna is good and she does pretty well with the accents too.
Ebooks for Review:
Dearly, Departed by Lia Habel – (Netgalley) – I’ve had my eye on this steampunk/zombie/futuristic book for awhile.
What did you get in your mailbox this week?
‘Touch’ was an impulse eBook buy for me as well, haha. I keep hearing these insanely good things about it, so we’ll see. I can’t wait to read it once I get through some more review books.
Enjoy! =)
I’m looking forward to read Dearly Departed. It sounds so good. Haven’t heard of Touch before, but now I’m intrigued. I’ll look it up soon and who knows, a future Kindle impulse perhaps? Also, I covet your two audio books! I’m still on the fence about audio books, but I don’t know why. You’ve influenced me on other things, you might influence me on this as well.
I can’t wait to read Anna and the French Kiss so many people have read it and i really need to!! I hope you enjoy everything you got also come check out my IMM!!

Catastrophic History looks absolutely lovely! I’m excited to read it as well. I’m looking forward to your review of Dearly Departed–it’s intriguing but I’m not sure if it’d be my sort of book.
Touch was an impulse buy for me, too. Glad to see your copy of The Catastrophic History of You & Me arrived! It really does look fantastic, doesn’t it? Great IMM this week!
Fantastic books! Just discovered your blog and looking forward to reading more š
Lauren Oliver’s blurb on The Catastrophic History of You & Me totally has me sold on this book too. Can’t wait to get a copy!
Your haul looks awesome this week! ENJOY =)

Fab set! I love Anna so much. I’m curious to see how it would work via audio.
My IMM
Nice titles. I was just wondering – are NetGalley books e-books? Sorry to not be in the loop about these things, but I haven’t started making the shift yet from actual books to e-books, so I’m a little out of it.
Good question. NetGalley books are digital galleys that you can request for review if you are a reviewer, blogger, educator, librarian, bookseller, etc. You can read them on your e-reader, phone, or computer. Go to netgalley.com to register or to find out more. A lot of bloggers love NG!
Omigosh you have got to read Lola and the Boy Next Door. I just read it, it was amazing!!!
Awesome IMM, happy reading:D
Touch was a really fun books I loved it. Hope you enjoy it as well. Wonderful haul!

Hippies, Beauty, and Books. Oh My!
I really loved Anna and Lola. I might have to check out the audiobooks! Although I’m always careful when I hear that people attempt the accents. Most of the time it makes me laugh!

Too funny – I know what you mean! It would have been best if they just cast someone specifically for St. Clair’s part.
Ooh, I haven’t heard of Touch yet! Might have to check it out… Really wanting to read Dearly Departed as well!
Great books this week! š Happy reading/listening! hehe
OMG you got Dearly Departed on NetGalley?! Awesome… going there NOW!! š
