Mailbox Monday ~35~

August 11, 2012 By Jessica Filed Under: In My Mailbox 16 Comments

Mailbox Monday is where I show all the books I’ve gotten by various means throughout the week. Mailbox Monday was originally hosted by Marcia from A girl and her books and The Printed Page. This is a touring meme.  You can check out the main site for the full schedule.   July’s host is Mrs. Q Book Addict. 

I’m also going to link up with a similar meme called Stacking the Shelves hosted by Tynga’s Reviews :)

Bought

Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce from Amazon for only $2.99 while it was on sale.

Endlessly by Kiersten White from Amazon for full price baby!

Water Keep by J. Scott Savage from Amazon.

These books are from last month since I’m on a book buying ban.

Library

Life of Pi by Yann Martel

What did you get in your mailbox this week?  Leave a link and I’ll come look!

    Yea for vlogs! Your hair is super cute all curly. I’m jealous. Nice phone. Buttons would be nice, but they’re definitely getting hard to find. Endlessly was great! Your credits made me laugh. I need to do a vlog again. It just takes more time, and I’d probably have to shower or something. ;)

      Oooh it makes my day that you watched the credits :)  Vlogs are fun every now and then, but they would take a lot of time if i did them every week.

    I bought Sisters Red a while ago but I still haven’t read it. But I did read Jackson Pearce debut novel As you wish and loved it :). I hope that you’ll enjoy reading these books. Happy reading !

    You know, my library had preordered Endlessly, YET they don’t preorder any new releases that aren’t sequels. -_- I need to read Paranormalcy, so that was really a waste of a preorder, library.

    Great haul! I actually have heard great things about Sisters Red and even though I couldn’t see the title in the vlog I’d recognize that vector cover anywhere! :) Enjoy your books!

    Cuteness! I also have a full-keyboard phone – I had a touch screen briefly and hated it because it was so glitchy! So glad you’re loving Life of Pi because I LOVE that one too. Are you excited for the movie?

      I just barely found out about the movie.  I’m excited to see it, but I think I’ll be even more excited when I’ve finished the book.  

      So glad that I’m not the only one that likes buttons :D
