In My Mailbox (46)

Have you entered the Jersey Tomatoes giveaway yet? 


In My Mailbox is an Internet meme hosted by The Story Siren to share new books received, purchased, or borrowed.

So here's what I got this week!


Received from author of A Need So Beautiful, Suzanne Young: signed bookmarks and stickers for my teens! Thank you!




Received from publisher: Shut Out by Kody Keplinger (OMG have been waiting for this ARC forever! Thank you Hachette!)


I had won a signed copy of Divergent in a TLC Auction a while back, and there's been some delay in getting it to me--which I was totally cool with, but Veronica Roth's agent said she would send a little something my way to tide me over. This is the awesome package I got today:




Um, that's a SECOND copy of Shut Out! And both packages arrived on the same day! The circle things are faction tattoos, and there's also a discussion guide. Woohoo! And since I now have TWO copies of Shut Out, you can bet a giveaway will be happening soon!


Won in a contest held by Lauren Oliver: the special edition cover of Delirium!


(And can I just say how impressed I was with the packaging from HarperTeen? The package--about 2 feet long--was stuck in my porch railing when I got home from work, and I was devastated because it was raining and the package had gotten wet. Well, after I peeled off brown wrapping, I had to remove yards of Saran Wrap, and then I had to cut the tape that was holding two pieces of cardboard together, all to get to the cover! Awesome job, thank you so much for the extra effort!)

Borrowed from the library:
  • Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by JK Rowling
  • Mystery by Jonathan Kellerman (adult fic)
What did you get?

Enjoy your reading!
