Diva Mail: In My Mailbox

 
Good morning bookish peeps.  It's time for In My Mailbox, a meme hosted by Kristi @ The Story Siren.  I haven't gotten any review books in the mail for quite a while, but I've done some book shopping.  I hit up my local Barnes and Noble and and found a few good reads on sale.  I also stopped at Book Traders, my new fav used book store and picked another book.  For some reason I was on a chick lit high because those seemed to be the only titles that attracted me.  So here's what I got.  What did you get in your mailbox this week?

 Other Woman by Diana Diamond

Queen Takes King by Gigi Levangie Grazer

Sex And The City by Candace Bushnell

Lipstick Jungle by Candace Bushnell

For Better Or For Worse by Diann Hunt

In My Mailbox (28)

Good morning!  In My Mailbox is hosted by the super fab Kristi @ The Story Siren.

I only bought one book last week and that's Waiting To Exhale. I've had several copies of the book, loaned them to someone, can't remember who, but never volunteered to five them back so I just got a new one.  I really wanted a hardback, but couldn't find one so for now I've settled for the paperback which I will soon reread. I loved this book and movie back in the day.

I got Die For Me from Net Galley a while ago, but forgot to mention.  I requested it because I liked the book summary, but as I read the reviews I realized it was about zombies.  Eek!  Not a zombie fan, but judging from the reviews, I may become one...we'll see.

I also borrowed Lover Unleashed and Sweet Valley Confidential.  Yay!  I've been wanting to read both, but was trying to wait until my library got them. Both books have mixes reviews so really anxious to see what all the fuss is about.  Thankfully someone loaned me ebooks to read.  Now my Nook will be very happy that I will getting to spend more time with it instead of neglecting it for paperbacks.

Well, thanks all, so what did you get in your mailbox?

It's a beautiful Sunny Sunday and time to share what I got in the mail last week.  In My Mailbox is hosted by  Kristi @ The Story Siren.  I didn't do an IMM post last week so although my loot is small, it's two weeks worth.  I'm still trying to catch up on my reviews and read books that I already have so I only bought one book and got two for review. What did you get in the mail last week?

Good morning, book lovers!  It's time for In My Mail box, which is hosted by the awesome Kristi @ The Story Siren .

I didn't buy anything this week because I'm still trying to work through my review TBR and books that I've purchased and never had a chance to read.

I did get one cool little package yesterday.  I received Blood Of A Werewolf for review and some cool bookmarks.  I think I had only read one review on this book before I was asked to review it, but I liked the book summary so I'm looking forward to reading it.

Blood Of A Werewolf by T Lynne Tolles

So, that's all I got this week.  What did you get in your IMM?


*Thanx so much to author T Lynne Tolles for review book and bookmarks.

Good morning bookish peeps.  It's Sunday and I have to go to work later-gah!  I've had a slow posting week, but I have gotten some reading and reviewing done-just having posted it yet.  Yeah, I know that sucks but each time I start to edit a review for posting, my mind wanders and I end up doing other things on the interwebs.  Hopefully, I can actually focus this week and get everything scheduled.  


Anyhoo, it's time to share what books I got last week.  In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.  It's a weekly meme sharing what bookish things you bought, borrowed, won, or received for review. 


I got one book in the mail for review and I bought three books.  Oh, I am so pissed at Barnes And Noble and Bookstar right now because the ones that I frequent have done the unthinkable and closed.  Now, I've got a thirty minute commute to the nearest BNB because the nearby Books A Million is just not the same(although I did get a few sale items there.)


When I finally got to BNB, my son gave me his famous "she'll be in here forever" sigh but I managed to shut him up by getting him a tasty sandwich and soup and a couple of activity books I found on sale.  So here's what I got for myself

Bought
My Fair Succubi by Jill Myles

For Review
Griffin Rising by Darby Karchut 

Bought-ON SALE!
Mama Dearest by E. Lynn Harris

*Thanks so much to Darby Karchut for review book and bracelet.

Good morning bookish peeps.  I haven't done much blogging due to my insane work schedule and sheer laziness, but I promise I will pull my self back together and get with it.  I've decided to change my blog design AGAIN, so I've been working on that too.  I'm playing around with some images to see what I like best but I should have it ready some time next week.


Anyhoo, it's time to share what books I got last week.  In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.  It's a weekly meme sharing what bookish things you bought, borrowed, won, or received for review. 


I didn't get anything in the mail last week and after the blow up I had with the FedEx guy about leaving my mail wherever the hell he decided (ie my shady neighbor and my apartment manager's office-which is closed when I get home) instead of just leaving a little ticket for me to pick it up myself, I'm seriously thinking about getting a P O Box.

I did buy two books this week.  I started reading Archangel's Consort by Nalini Singh (third book in the Guild series), knowing that I hadn't read the first two in the series.  Imagine my surprise when I liked the book but was completely confused about who's who and what's really going on in the story's background.  So, I ordered Angel's Blood and Archangel's Kiss so I could catch up enjoy Raphael and Dmitri, my newest book boyfriends.  


That's it, so what did you get this week?

Good morning, peeps.  I'm feeling kind of sluggish this morning after a six hour birthday party at Incredible Pizza.  Didn't get home until after 11 last night. I have been traumatized by screaming and pushing children that I vow to never step foot in that hell hole AGAIN.

Anyhoo, it's time to share what I got in the mail  last week.  In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.  It's a weekly meme sharing what bookish things you bought, borrowed, won, or received for review.  I only got one book in the mail this week.  I won The Pursuit Of Pleasure by Elizabeth Essex from Goodreads' First Read giveaway.  I have not read anything by this author, but the book cover is scandalous so I'm excited to crack it open.

I got Dead, Undead, Or Somewhere In Between by J A Saare last week and forgot to mention.  I've been dying to read this and got it Kindle ebook from Amazon (reading on my laptop) at 99 cents.   I've heard too much about Rhiannon and Disco and will find the time to love them.

I also got Red Glove by Holly Black (got to read White Cat first), Evercrossed by Elizabeth Turner, and Whirlwind by Robin DeJarnett in ebook and will be reviewing them soon.

I wanted to go on a book spurge this week, but every place I hit, I couldn't find anything that I was really excited to read.  I did order a few online  so I could complete a few series that I already have a book or two from before I start reading the first book.  Well, that's my  IMM for last week.  What did you get?

 Thanks so much to Goodreads, Kensington Publishing, Simon and Schuster and Omnific Publishing  for my book loot.

It's Sunday bookish peeps and time to share my book loot for last week.  In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren. It's a cool way to share bookish things you bought, won, checked out of the library, or got in the mail. 


I only got one book this week.  It's an ARC for a regency romance that scheduled to release in May.  The book blurb is promising so I'm thinking I should enjoy it.  I got tons of bookmarks, excerpt booklets and other swag in the mail for giveaway.  


Thanks so much to Kate Pearce, Pat Rouse, and Stefanie Sloane for my week's book loot.  What book goodies did you get this week?

Okay, I got two copies of Archangel's Consort in the mail yesterday, which I will be reading for my Kick Ass Heroine Reading Challenge.  Yes, I am holding my squeeee in.  I have not read anything from Nalini Singh yet, but from what I hear, her books are the bomb and I have been missing out.   Of course now I'll have to wishlist the other books to get up to speed, but I'm still excited to get these and...oh,oh, do I sense a giveaway coming?  Yes, yes I think I do.  Stay tuned for dets on that.


I also got an egalley of Darkness Becomes Her, which I will be reading for The Debut Author's Challenge.  I haven't heard much about this book, but the blurb did sway me so I'm anxious to see what it's about.

So, what book loot did you get this week?

Thanks to Erin @ Penguin and Simon & Schuster Galley Grab for my book loot.

Hey, book lovers!  It's a super cold post Christmas Sunday and  I'm still cleaning up wrapping paper and  getting rid of boxes at my house, but I got to get back to my book grind.  

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren. It's just to share what bookish things you bought, won, checked out of the library, or got in the mail.  I only got one thing in the mail and two egalleys from the awesome peeps at Netgalley.

I got A Taste Of Desire, which is coming out this week, in the mail along with some cool book marks.  I'm in love with historical romances so this should be a very good read.  I also got ebooks of Populazzi and Here Lies Bridget. These two YA books are for the Debut Author Challenge, which I have yet to sign up for because I want to get my list of books first, that's being hosted by The Story Siren.  I've been reading a lot of good YA so I figured this challenge would be fun.  I'm also working on a challenge of my own, so I'll see how that works out.

Well, that's all I've got going on here, what goodies did Santa put in your mail box this week?

Populazzi by Elise Allen (Netgalley)

A Taste Of Desire by Beverley Kendall and bookmarks (Beverley Kendall)

Diva Mail (15)...And Some Freebies For Your Mailbox

Good morning, blog buddies!  It's Sunday and time for my version of In My Mailbox, which is hosted by the evah soo cool Kristi @ The Story Siren.  IMM is a weekly meme showcasing the bookish things that you won, recieved for review, or bought.  Kristi is taking a break but will be back in the new year so there won't be a linky list to follow, so if you stop by, just leave me a link to follow you back to your IMM.

While I was Christmas shopping last week, I couldn't keep my feet from moving to the book section.  On my Christmas budget, I was able to get two really good books from my wishlist.

Haunted By Your Touch  has short stories from Jeaniene Frost and Shayla Black-two of my fav paranormal authors.  I've only read one story by Shari Kohler so this is another chance to sample her work.

Ecstasy In Darkness is by Gena Showalter, another one of my fav paranormal authors.   Love her Alien Huntress series and the reviews have been all good.

I also got two books for review.  I lurvs the cover and the quirky summary for A Brush Of Darkness (releasing Jan 25th), so I was really excited to get it.  The other book I got is Spirit Storm, which is the sequel to She Smells The Dead.  I also loved this cover too and can't wait to continue with Yuki's story (btw, this is already out on Kindle).

Bought

Haunted By Your Touch by Shayla Black, Jeaniene Frost, and Shari Kohler

Oooh, and before I forget, while checking out some Tweets and IMM posts, I found a couple of freebies for Nook and Kindle.  Sharing is caring, so thanx to @nikkibrandyberry of Ramblings From A Chaotic Mind, @kindleObsessed of Kindle Obsessed and @The_BookishType of The Bookish Type, here's what my Nookie got for Christmas:  

 

and BTW, I'm a Nook owner so all I did was go to B&N and type in the title to find the books, so I'm sure Amazon is the same way.  If you have some freebies to share, just comment with a link or title.

So, what did you get in your mailbox this week?
