In My Mailbox (13)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren which gives bloggers a chance to share the books, swag, etc. that they've received each week.

Ahh, you guys! I had the picture this week, I swear! Sorry for the lack of (much) visual representation. My dad took the USB cord with him to Saskatchewan on a business trip and so I'm out of luck there. It's a shame too since the books I got this week are preeeetty.

A Million Suns by Beth Revis
Thank you so much to Anne from Unwasted Words for this book! I loved the first one and can't wait to catch up on what's been happening with Elder and Amy :)

Everneath by Brodi Ashton
FINALLY! *pumps fists in air* I have been dying to read this one since I first heard of it. My pre-order finally arrived this week. Only question is... why haven't I already devoured it?

Born Wicked by Jessica Spotswood
I saw this one put out early in my local drug store and made a mad dash for it. Gorgeous cover, witches AND some very promising reviews already? I'm excited.

Eyes Like Stars by Lisa Mantchev
I'm really intrigued by the concept of this one so when I saw the hardcover on sale at Chapters for like $7, I had to grab it.

Graceling by Kristin Cashore
This is basically the same story as with Eyes Like Stars - the hardcover was $7. I am pretty ashamed to say I haven't read this yet... and I call myself a fantasy lover. Plus, everyone right now is all, "Bitterblueeee!" so I've been itching to start this series. Fingers crossed that I love it!

The Tiger's Wife by Téa Obreht
I bought this for school... it sounds pretty cool!

EDIT: Totally forgot to mention... I also got Being Friends With Boys by Terra Elan McVoy from Galley Grab (the author tweeted a link).

What was in your mailbox this week?
