In My Mailbox (28)

In My Mailbox (IMM) was started by The Story Siren a few years back, and is a great way for bloggers to give the books they are reading (or are planning to read) a quick mention.  I didn't post an IMM last week because I had nothing to post.  I got ZIP the prvious week.  Not necessarily a bad thing, as it gives me time to catch up... So I thought!  I had a phenomenal week for books this week, and my TBR is bigger than ever now!  Here goes...

Goodreads Synopsis
I really enjoyed Cat's debut, Forgotten, and was thrilled when I found out I was one of the lucky ducks who got on this tour.  This book was AWESOME!  It was one of those drop-everything-to-read books!  Look for my review toward the middle-to-end of the month.

Dreamless

I was hoping for an opportunity to review this one!  I reviewed its predecessor, Starcrossed, last spring, and loved it!  Look for my review of this book at the beginning of May.

Arise
By Tara Hudson
Publisher:  HarperTeen
Publication Date:  June 5th, 2012

Goodreads Synopsis
This is another sequel to a book I reviewed last spring, and have been eagerly awaiting.  Hereafter was one of my favorite Paranormal Romances of 2011 and I have high hopes for this one!

The Selection

Publication Date:  April 24th, 2012

Goodreads Synopsis
I had all but given up on getting a pre-release copy of this coveted book!  I am beyond excited to read it, and with release date so close, I don't even have to wait, adhering to my self-imposed rules of reading in order of release date!

Touched
By Cyn Balog
Publisher:  Delacorte BFYR
Publication Date:  August 18th, 2013

Goodreads Synopsis
This book looks great!  I'm trying not to get too excited to read it because of my aforementioned self-imposed restrictions, but it's pretty hard.  Also, the cover!

The Immortal Rules
By Julie Kagawa
Publisher:  HarlequinTeen
Publication Date:  April 24th, 2012
Source:  ARC/NetGalley
Goodreads Synopsis
The reviews have been amazing, so when  got a an email from NetGalley, I had to run right over and get this one!  I've been kind of over vampires, but I think this could be the book to rekindle my love for them.

Unspoken
By Sarah Rees Brennan
Publisher:  Random House BFYR
Publication Date:  September 11th, 2012
Source:  ARC/NetGalley
Goodreads Synopsis
I've never read anything by Sarah Rees Brennan because I don't have time to start many series that I'm multiple books behind on, but I've heard great things about The Demon's Lexicon, so when I heard she was beginning a new series, I was all over it!

Velveteen
By Daniel Marks
Publisher:  Random House BFYR
Publication Date:  October 9th, 2012
Source: ARC/Publisher
Goodreads Synopsis
When I read the synopsis of this book, I got chills!  I remember telling my husband, "Listen to this...", so I am thrilled to have an advance copy.  I mean, "Bonesaw"?  Honestly, I hope I have the stomach, because this sounds like one hell of a thriller!  Woohoo!

Bad Hair Day
By Carrie Harris
Publisher:  Delacorte BFYR
Publication Date: November 13th, 2012
Source:  ARC/Publisher
Goodreads Synopsis
I thought Bad Taste In Boys, Carrie Harris's debut, was great!  It was funny and smart, and being somewhat of a nerd myself, I always love a nerdy heroine.  Can't wait to read this book!
