My Mailbox is where I show all the books I’ve gotten by various means throughout the past four months. The last time I did one of theses posts was January! I can’t believe it’s been that long. As you can see, for four months worth of books I haven’t actually got that many. Hope you enjoy :)
I will be linking up with Mailbox Monday and Stacking the Shelves hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.
Since I LOVE book cover art on my kindle, I took my own pictures of the covers of my ebooks.

- Moleskine USB Reading Light
I just have to comment on my new reading light. I love it! It’s bendable and thin so it stays in place really well. It has LED bulbs so the only thing I need to worry about is charging it and it charges with any USB outlet with that middle arm that has the two silver things on it. It doesn’t have an indicator light to tell you when it’s fully charged and I really wish it did. I usually leave it in for about an hour and call it good. It also seems to have a shorter battery life than my reading light that is powered by an AA battery. Still, it does last me about 5-6 hours before it needs to be charged again. I’m really happy with it. The best thing about it is how well it stays in place and how evenly it lights my book.

For our book club, we had a “spring cleaning” event where everyone brought books they didn’t want anymore. The group picked through the ones that others had donated and took home the books they wanted to read. The rest went to charity. It was a lot of fun and I can’t believe how many awesome books I got!

My name is Jessica. I love to read Young Adult and classic literature. I’ve been a book blogger for six years and I haven’t gotten tired of it yet. I’m a very curious reader. Writing about all the questions and thoughts I had while reading a book is the best hobby ever.
Love all the Gone With the Wind stuff. I didn’t know about the biography. Now I want to check it out.
I love your book light! It sounds great! I don’t usually need a book light to read during the night but sometimes I go on camping trips so that would be super useful! I like how it’s USB charged too so you don’t have to constantly put in batteries / change the light bulb. Although an indicator would be handy. That’s the one pet peeve I have about my ipod classic as well. I never know when it’s full! Anyway looks like you got some really great books this week so happy reading! :)
Revolution is a really good book! I wish more people would give it a read, because it doesn’t seem to be that popular. It’s an awesome historical fiction. I’ve been meaning to read Throne of Glass for the longest time. I absolutely adore your blog design! Happy reading! :)

YAY for Splintered and Throne of Glass. I recognise a few of your books but some are new to me.
