In My Mailbox • 3

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by thestorysiren.com. eReaderMo version of this weekly feature will be posted almost every Sunday.

This week, I received a number of books from my local library and from authors on goodreads who want me to review their books.  For a person who was concerned that she would go broke buying books to read, suddenly I am awash with great books that have come at no cost to me.  For those of you who are used to having such an influx of books from so many different angles, do you remember what it was like for you the first time you received a book for review from an author, the first Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) from a publisher, or won your first book in a giveaway/competion? What did it feel like for you? I am giddy just thinking about it. Giddy because my little nook simple touch is just burning up with all the new books that I download to it.   I can't help but grin every time I peruse the library on my nook. Especially when I think of the books I receive for review. The eLibrary ones go away fortunately and unfortunately.


In any event, without further ado, here's my IMM for the week! 


An eLibrary Book received this week. 
This is a science fiction novel that peaked my interest. I love short story collections and this book is one based on the accelerating rate of human development. Sounds intriguing, exciting and breath-taking!  Very much looking forward to reading this park. 
Another eLibrary Book received this week. What first attracted me to this book was it's subtitle - The Secrets of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel.  Do you recognize that name by any chance? Hint - think Harry Potter. :D


I am very much looking forward to reading this book!








A review book received this week from my loving group Read it and Reap on Goodreads.com

That's my IMM for the week! I'm always looking for the next best read, so please share what you're reading with me!

  5. I got The Alchemist forever ago so I could start the series and never got to it. I have heard that the series is really good though. I am going to be reading Jenny Pox in a few weeks. I have heard awesome things about it.
