In My Mailbox (44)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren to share what books you received for review, purchased, or checked out from the library during the past week.




For review:

The Vespertine by Saundra Mitchell

I am so excited about The Vespertine! I love historical fiction and have only heard good things about this book so far. I will hopefully be able to read it soon.

Demonglass by Rachel Hawkins

Won:

Dark Angels by Karleen Koen

I hadn't heard of this book until I found out that I won it for participating in a French Historical Reading Challenge last year. It sounds like a really interesting historical fiction novel set during the 17th century at the court of King Charles II.

Thanks to Lucy at Enchanted by Josephine!


From the library:

The Orchid Affair by Lauren Willig


I was very hapy to get The Orchid Affair from the library this week. I love the Pink Carnation series and can't wait to dive into this story!

The Latte Rebellion by Sarah Jamila Stevenson

I first heard about this book from Reading in Color and I think it sounds fantastic. I am going to be reading The Latte Rebellion for the POC Reading Challenge.

    I just finished The Latte Rebellion and really loved it, also Demonglass is a great follow up to Hex Hall, but I am really jealous you have The Vespertine I cannot wait to read it. I look forward to all your reviews.

    DEMONGLASS looks really neat - I love the cover! Again, I'm so sorry about the weather and MAD LOVE. I asked the mailman yesterday, and he said it would probably get there by Wednesday :)
    Have a great week!

    Such a nice assortment of books! The Vespertine is on my stack somewhere. I really want Demonglass but am on a book buying ban until I get some of the books I already own read. Books 2 through 5 of the Pink Carnation series are already on the TBR stack too. Happy reading!

    You have a nice selection of books here. Thank you for visiting my blog! The weather situation still remains bleak - the orphanage has been forced to now evacuate.
