My Mailbox (52) Christmas Edition

January 4, 2014 By Jessica Filed Under: In My Mailbox 7 Comments

Format: select

My Mailbox is where I show all the books I’ve gotten by various means throughout the month.

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.

This post contains affiliate links and I receive a small percentage of sales made through these links.

Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson
Not A Drop to Drink by Mindy McGinnis

    My friend read the Shakespeare Star Wars book and loved it. She thought it was totally hilarious. :)

    I spy Steelheart! Such a great book! I hope you can read it soon. Uglies is also pretty great. I haven’t seen that cover before. It’s kind of on the creepy side!
