In My Mailbox #2: From Tax Day to Today!

 In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren, where we spotlight the books that we've received for review, swapped, or purchased that week. I am only listing physical books, by the way.

The Académie by Susanne Dunlap
Hooked by Catherine Greenman

Hope Was Here by Joan Bauer
Signed copy of Rules of Summer (Rules of Summer #1) by Joanna Philbin
*I bought these two books at my new favorite bookstore which I was practically drooling in, Vroman's Bookstore, the oldest and largest bookstore in Southern California, located in Pasadena, CA. I loved Hope Was Here when I read it last summer, it was absolutely amazing, but I had only gotten it from the library and so I wanted my own copy. This is my favorite cover of all of them, it is sooooo cute!! It fits the story perfectly. :') And Vroman's has quite a few books they have a limited quantity of signed copies of, and I just couldn't resist getting Rules of Summer. *
*I got these at my local Barnes & Noble *
*I bought the above three books at the book resale store run by the friends of my library inside my library, and my total bill was like four something dollars. Pretty good. =) *

In My Mailbox #1: Catch-Up Beginning of 2013 Edition!


 In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren, where we spotlight the books that we've received for review, swapped, or purchased that week.

I'm switching over from Stacking the Shelves to In My Mailbox, mostly because I feel like this meme is more true to what I'm posting. Anyways, I have received a some books in the mail in 2013, whether it be giveaways or blog tour, and so this is my post of all of them (it's actually not that much it's just more a long period of time).
 
Note: These are only physical books as I do Feed My Reader for e-books.

For Review:
 


ARC copy of The Girl Guide: Finding Your Place in a Mixed-Up World by Christine Fonseca

It's kinda small because I stopped my giveaway madness for a while to focus on school, but I got back into my regime during spring break and won some more stuff. I'm expecting The Academie and Hooked (which I might just donate to the library) that I won in a giveaway at Emily's Crammed Bookshelf and Orleans (which I really wanted to read and then got SUPER lucky and won a copy of!) from the Goodreads First Reads program. I also won a paperback of Dear Cassie, but I have to read the first book and the in-between novella first. I'll do a post when I get those in, and hopefully I'll win more soon because I'm entered in like, 50 giveaways right now, lol. When I eventually get around to my Feed My Reader post, it will be HUMONGOUS because I have downloaded tons of books for free thanks to Feed Your Reader. Kind of freaked and worried about how long that's gonna take me....
