In My Mailbox #22

In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi from The Story Siren. I couldn't do an IMM last week because I had NO books or post or anything to show you! :( But this week, I have had a little bit of post so I can do an IMM, yay!

FOR REVIEW






Bumped by Megan McCafferty (UK Paperback)
Not really sure about this one, the subject is more than a little weird for me, though I am looking forward to reading it :) I think it will be interesting, and it's received mixed reviews so I'm going to read it and decide for myself what I thought :) Thank you Random House!


I also got a couple of postcards, that arrived in mysterious black envelopes. I had no idea what they were going to be before I opened them, but they are pretty cool :) I guess you could call them...







Two blank postcards with a moustache and a tooth on them. (I have no other way to describe them!)
These are (I'm pretty sure) promo for Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor. They have the web site for DOSAB on so that's what I'm assuming they're for! It's very exciting! 


What did you all get in your mailboxes this week? Did you get more than I did, or did you get the postcards too? :) Leave a link to you mailbox in the comments and I'll be sure to come and check them out! Happy reading!

    I love the cover of this book so much!:D
    But I've read and watched a lot of mixed reviews about it, even though the concept of it sounds great.
    A world where teenagers have to have babies, for the adults who can't have them?
    CRAZY!

Book Review: Insight by Jamie Magee

Title: Insight Author: Jamie Magee Series: Insight #1 Pages: 314 Date of UK Publications: July 20th 2010 Source: Received free for a blog tour/event Synopsis from Goodreads: Before that fateful summer night, Willow had balanced the insight of emotion, and the vivid images. That night, the figure in her nightmare marked her wrist with a star, giving her father no choice but to tell Willow a family secret that would abruptly change life, as she knew it, forever. Before Willow had time to absorb the shock of her father's secret, her soul mate that had shared every stunning dream with her, found her, and darkness captured her closest friends.
