In My Mailbox (15)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi of The Story Siren (and inspired by Alea of Pop Culture Junkie) to showcase any books that I have received for review, bought, borrowed, or won to read.



For Review

Black Heart (Curse Workers #3) by Holly Black (Thanks to S&S Canada!)
Bite Me by Lori T. Strongin (Thanks to Lori!)



Gifted

The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick (Thanks to the bf!)
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs (Thanks to the bf!)
A Million Suns (Across the Universe #2) by Beth Revis (Thanks to the dad!)

I had an excellent few weeks in books and I can't wait to read them all! What's in your mailbox this week?

  2. I haven't read the first two books in The Curse Workers series yet but they sounds so great! I can't wait to see your thoughts on Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, I've been debating on picking it up for a while now. So many awesome books this week Aylee! Happy Weekend!

    1. I haven't actually got around to reading the first two books in the Curse Workers series yet either (though I own White Cat). I think it's hopeful that I'll find the time to read them and then Black Heart before it's released!

  3. I haven´t read any of these.
    But I got Across the Universe, the first book in my shelf. And I so need to read it soon :)

    Hope you enjoy your books :)

  4. Black Heart ? I'm so jealous ! I just finished White Cat, but I want to wait for the new covers to be realeased in the US before I buy it.

    1. I am not at all a fan of the new covers. I don't feel like they are good representations of the series.

  5. Ditto that I'm not a fan of the new Holly Black covers--they don't say anything about the story or characters or anything.

    And THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing my book in your IMM!!!!!


    Smiles!

  7. Black Heart came to me a couple weeks ago. I see that you haven't read the first two in the series, you should, they're interesting (try the audio books, Jesse Eisenberg(The Social Network) narrates them and his voice is a nice touch.)

    Anywho, I hope you enjoy your books!

  16. GAH!! When am I ever going to get around to reading those Curse Workers books? My sister has read the first two and loved them. :)

    P.S. I watched the Woman in Black over the weekend! Danny is so grown up, now. How did that happen? And read an interview with him where he says some of his drunkenness if obvious in the HP films. I was like Whoa!

    1. What, really? I didn't notice any obvious drunkenness, besides in the scenes that they were actually meant to be drunk. It's hard seeing those kids as grown up sometimes; I still see them as 11 year olds sometimes.

  17. Ooh, I got the first Curse Worker book this week. Hope the third instalment is good - I love the cover of that one.

    Miss Peregrine's Home was so good, I absolutely loved it. I hope you do too!
