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!

  6. 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!

In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi from The Story Siren. BOUGHT       Divergent by Veronica Roth It was a complete surprise when I got this in the mail, it's not meant to be out until May 3rd so when I got it early from Amazon, I was extremely excited!

Book Blogger Hop #4

It's that time again, for the Book Blogger Hop, hosted by Jennifer at Crazy For Books! It gives bloggers a chance to hop around and find some awesome new blogs to follow! I frequently find new books that I need to read, and it's a great way to make new friends! Click the link above to sign up! =] Where is your favourite place to read? Curled up on the sofa, in bed, in the garden? My answer: My favourite place to read is in the corner of our corner sofa in the living room, when my brother is playing the Xbox, because then, I can block out the sounds of him blowing things up and just get lost in a book. I can't read there though if the TV's on, as I'll just end up watching the programme instead! I also like reading in bed, but sometimes I'll find myself drifting off, so I don't read there very often!

Book Review: The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater

Title:  The Scorpio Races  Author:  Maggie Stiefvater Series:  Standalone Pages:  404 Publisher:  Scholastic Date of Publication:  25th October 2011 Source:  Publisher* Synopsis from Goodreads: It happens at the start of every November: the Scorpio Races. Riders attempt to keep hold of their water horses long enough to make it to the finish line. Some riders live. Others die. At age nineteen, Sean Kendrick is the returning champion. He is a young man of few words, and if he has any fears, he keeps them buried deep, where no one else can see them. Puck Connolly is different. She never meant to ride in the Scorpio Races. But fate hasn’t given her much of a chance. So she enters the competition — the first girl ever to do so. She is in no way prepared for what is going to happen. My Thoughts: I was really excited to read The Scorpio Races . I'm a huge fan of Maggie Stiefvater, and I've read all her previous books apart from Balla...
