In My Mailbox is a meme hosted by The Story Siren, which allows bloggers to share what books they’ve received in the past week. They can be from stores, contests, tours, publishers, libraries, borrowed books from friends, and the list goes
on! It's just a way of showing off the books you received in the past week and making sure they're featured on the blog.Okay, so this is a combination of last week AND this week, which should help to explain why my mailbox kinda... blew up in this post:
Books I purchased/won:
- The Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa (King, Daughter, Queen, Knight) - even though I've read all of them I wanted my own collection for my shelf and I got a wicked deal on the first three from Harlequin's e-store
- Miss Peregrine's Home for Pecular Children by Ransom Riggs - I was Christmas shopping at Chapters and finally looked this one over and had to buy it!
- Wither by Lauren DeStefano - I have this on Kindle, BUT I love it, and a while ago I got a signed bookplate from Lauren, which now is inside this copy <3
- Into the Silence by Wade Davis with Random House Canada swag - won in the Random House Trick or Tweet giveaway! I'm actually going to pass this book along to my grandpa, because he LOVES books like these so it's perfect! I'm keeping the mug though ;)
- Happily Ever After by Susan May Warren
- The Lightkeeper's Daughter by Colleen Cobble
- Caleb + Kate by Cindy Martinsun-Coloma - these last three were puchased by me because I've been looking for some light, contemporary romance recently :)
- Signed Touch (Denazen novel) swag from Jus Accardo - I got a few postcards, bookmarks, and magnets from Jus since I'm part of her street team! I'll be giving away a bunch of it on here, so keep your eyes open for those giveaways!
- NOT PICTURED: SIGNED Darker Still by Leanna Renee Hieber (from Books of Wonder) - I pre-ordered this forever ago, and it finally came, yay! But I forgot to include a picture of it, so I'll snag one for next week.

Amanda @ Letters Inside Out - My IMM
So jealous that you got the Iron Fey series! You got some awesome arcs too!
Awesome set!! Yayy!! You have the entire Iron Fey series! They're soooo amazing <3! So jealous you got Article 5! I can't wait to read that next year!!
Enjoy!
Here's My IMM
I love The Iron King and have the other three Iron Fey books sitting here and waiting for me to read them. Nice to see that you have a complete set, too. :)
I also really enjoyed Wither and agree that its the kind of book that needs to be owned and sitting on a shelf.
And the Touch stuff looks totally awesome.
Glad to see that you had such a fantastic week. :)

Awesome books this week! Wither was soo good, cant wait until Fever:)

I don't really know why, but I'm really interested to read BELLES. PURITY also sounds like a good read. And you can't go too wrong with Jackson Pearce, am I right? I loved Michelle Zink's PROPHECY OF THE SISTERS, A TEMPTATION OF ANGELS looks good.
So does everything else, thought I'd keep it short.
Check out my first IMM in forever - http://wordsonpaperya.blogspot.com/2011/11/in-my-mailbox-51-58-catch-up-time.html
Wow you had a very big week! 172 Hours on the Moon does look good and I'm also eager to read Article 5. Enjoy all your awesome new reads!
great list! I added a few to my TBR list (as if it wasn't long enough)
Hahah, I think you have plenty of reading material as well. ;) And a whole lot of goodies as well! That's so awesome you got the whole Iron Fey series too. I need to read it badly! Can't wait to see what you'll think of them all. :) Enjoy!
My IMM!
You sure did get a lot of books this week. Kind of puts my 4 books to shame. ;) I got Immortal City as well, so glad there's a different cover. This one's a bit dodgy. Hope you have fun reading all those books. :)
Awesome stuff Brenna! I'm waiting for my copy of Belles too it sounds soo awesome and I love the cover! I also see some Touch love there! <3 I love Dark Eyes' cover! Never seen that one before.

I'm so jealous you got purity! I love Jackson Pearce!
My IMM
What a great IMM. I have flipped through Miss Peregrine's Home for Pecular Children. The way that the pictures are a part of the story is quite remarkable. Happy reading.
My IMM
Yay Iron Fey series! *does happy dance*
Haven't read Iron King just yet, but it's been getting so many amazing reviews! Got to have it!
Sheesh! That's a ton. I still need to get to Wither. The cover of A Temptation of Angels looks an awful lot like The Pledge, don't you think?

My IMM
Wow! Lots of books!
I loved The Iron Fey series! The others look like great picks too.
Amanda's Writings
Even though you have it on Kindle, WITHER is absolutely one of those books you have to own a physical copy of. So pretty inside!! You won some great stuff, too! Oh, I still need to read TOUCH! You went to Books of Wonder, too?? So did I! If I had known, we could have met up on Sunday :) I have ARCs of THE PREDICTEDS, LIFE IS BUT A DREAM, and AFTER THE SNOW for review as well. Ooooh, PURITY by Jackson Pearce! *wants* And I feel like I've heard of BELLES...
Oooh The Iron Fey series is so awesome! I haven't read the 4th book yet though. I can't wait!
Here is my IMM
Holy smokes. That haul is to die for. Seriously! I hope you enjoy every single one, especially Article 5. And *sighs* I still need The Iron Knight to complete my collection...
Happy reading, Brenna!
- Asher (from Paranormal Indulgence)
WOW! *stunned* Im dying to get the Iron Fey series. Ive heard SO MUCH about them but i cant find them ANYWHERE where i live. MY only option is ordering them online from TBD.
