In My Mailbox (121)

In My Mailbox was started by Kristi at The Story Siren.

For Review:

The Beginning of After by Jennifer Castle (Already read. It was absolutely amazing! My review will be posted in September.)
Forgiven by Janet Fox (For upcoming blog tour. Can't wait to read it!)
Diary of a Wimpy Kid Do-It-Yourself Book by Jeff Kinney (Not shown above. As this is a "Do-It-Yourself" book, I passed it on to a kid I know who loves Diary of a Wimpy Kid.)

From Library:

Carrie Pilby by Caren Lissner (Already read. It was a surprising read. Look for a review coming soon!)
The Witch's Daughter by Paula Brackston (Picked this up on a whim. The cover (LOVE the shoes!) and summary both caught my eye so I'm hoping I'll enjoy it!
Sleepless by Cyn Balog (Loved Cyn's Fairy Tale so I've been looking forward to reading this one for a while now!)
The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen (This looks so good!)
The Sweetness of Salt by Cecilia Galante (Been looking forward to reading this one for a while now. Interesting tidbit: the author of this lives in the area I do. Cool, right?)
Bossypants by Tina Fey (Really funny so far!)

Much thanks goes to Abrams, HarperTeen/Jennifer Castle, and Barbara at Blue Ship Media.

Slow but great week book wise, and from the two I've already read, I have a feeling this bunch will be great. Though, enough about me, what did you get this week? Let me know, and feel free to link to your IMM!

Have a great week! :)
