In My Mailbox (IMM) • 1


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 got three new books in my mailbox, two by sheer happenstance and one from my local library.

 
 Just like that and The Brenda Diaries - by Margo Candela
These two books came in via a contest on goodreads.com. I have followed the Brenda Diaries tweet feed (@BrendaDiaries) ever since I joined twitter a few months ago and getting the eBooks set to me from the author was a total "squee" moment. The Brenda Diaries is a peek into the thoughts of a recovering temp with a bad attitude and a good work-ethic in the foothills of Beverly Hills. If the tweet feed is indicative of the book's content, this book is NOT for young readers eyes. This is definitely an adult read that should keep you snickering and even perhaps, outright laughing from beginning to end.

Author Margo Candela described my second IMM book as "romantic chick lit with a naughty twist". Suffice to say this may also be one that is not meant for young eyes, but I refrain from declaring it so till I read the book. I'm looking forward to reading both books by Ms. Candela. Here's hoping, I can feature them both soon on my weekly WWW Wednesday feature.






City of Thieves by David Benioff

And by process of elimination, I expect you've identified this book as my e-library book. City of Thieves was an online library find that appeared intriguing, amusing and definitely a great read to occupy myself with while I waited for other books like Dreams of Joy to pop into my cart.









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

    Those look like great books. I just finished reading The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter. It was good. I got some good books in my IMM this week.

    I just checked out your IMM - I'm practically green! But then again, you're soo much more active than I in the blogsphere! and you write AWESOME reviews. Can't wait to read your reviews on the books!
