Mailbox Monday is a weekly event where we share our latest book arrivals. Link up and find new mailboxes to stalk at the Mailbox Monday blog!
Here’s my week in books:
Print & eBooks:
Girl Online by Zoe Sugg – The author Zoella is a famous English fashion and beauty vlogger and coincidentally her book debut is a YA novel about the life of a blogger.
Mistletoe and Mr. Right by Lyla Payne – A New Adult holiday romance!
The Witch of Painted Sorrows by M.J. Rose – This beauty is set in 1890s Belle Époque Paris.
More Happy Than Not by Adam Silvera – This YA debut is set in the Bronx and is about coming to terms with who you are. Sounds like there’s a sci-fi aspect to it too.
Things We Know by Heart by Jessi Kirby – Kirby’s latest is about a girl who meets the recipient of her boyfriend’s donated heart.
Made You Up by Francesca Zappia – I’m in love with this book cover, but the premise sounds great too. This debut features an unreliable narrator (she has paranoid schizophrenia) trying to figure out what’s real.
Making Pretty by Corey Ann Haydu – This is a romantic coming-of-age about sisters, friendship and love.
Review/Library Audiobooks:
The Pied Piper of Hamelin written and performed by Russell Brand – This MG book is a retelling of the famous Pied Piper story, told in Brand’s special brand of humor.
Mermaids in Paradise by Lydia Millet, read by Cassandra Campbell – This funny novel is about a honeymooning couple who spot mermaids in a coral reef.
Dear Daughter by Elizabeth Little, read by Bonnie Dennison – A daughter sets out to find her mother’s murderer (a crime she was incarcerated for).
Thank you so much to: Simon & Schuster, Bloomsbury, Atria Books, Soho Teen, HarperTeen, Greenwillow Books, Katherine Tegen Books, and Simon & Schuster Audio
