In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren and inspired by Alea of Pop Culture Junkie. The idea behind IMM is not only to put new books on our radars but also to encourage blogger interaction. IMM explores the weekly contents of our mailboxes: books bought, received, won, and borrowed, along with other goodies and swag.
Lots of great books this week, most of them from the library... oh yes, I am very quick on the draw when it comes to snagging new releases at the library; I'm that bookish girl who will say 'Oh, excuse me' even as she dives over your head or ducks between your legs to grab that special book you're scanning for from the shelves a second before you notice it. ANYWAY,
Here's what I got:

Wow, you got a lot of great books! I've been hearing good things about Saving Francesca and The Piper's Son. I'm interested to know what you'll think of Luminous. Happy reading!

@ Amber-- I just finished Luminous, and absolutely loved it! It was such a different read, unlike anything I've ever read before. Just wanted to say that ahead of time, since I won't be posting the review for a while-- the book doesn't come out until late June. :)
Stopping by late from the hop, but it's Easter so that is allowed. LOL!
What a nice bunch of books. you wont be bored this holiday! Hoppy Easter to you my dear!
I still have a giveaway open. I will be closing it this coming Friday. April 30th. 6 books are up for grabs if you are interested ---> Here ;)
