In My Mailbox: 10

It's time for In My Mailbox! I really love this meme. The purpose of it is to share the books we've received this week. It's hosted by The Story Siren, who inspired by Alea at Pop Culture Junkie. Here's what I got this week.


I didn't buy anything this week; it's all from the library. All links take you to the Borders website, except the last one, which takes you to Amazon.

The Day I Killed James: Catherine Ryan Hyde
Ash: Malinda Lo
I Am Number Four: Pittacus Lore (check out my review here)
Shiver: Maggie Stiefvater
City of Bones: Cassandra Clare
The New American Revolution: Tammy Bruce
The Facebook Effect: David Kirkpatrick
Table for Five: Susan Wiggs
Decorative Embroidery: Mary Norden

I'm actually most excited to read The Facebook Effect. Social networking and social psychology fascinate me, so I'm expecting this book to be awesome. I got the embroidery book to get ideas for Christmas presents, because I've decided to make Christmas gifts for my friends this year instead of buying them.

And one other thing I bought from Amazon that I am super-excited about, even though it has nothing to do with books:


CSI: Crime Scene Investigation The Complete Sixth Season

I am seriously addicted to CSI. It's the best show EVER. It hasn't actually arrived yet, since it just shipped a couple days ago, but I couldn't wait until next week's IMM to post about it. I am beyond excited for it to come in.

So that was my week. What did you get?

  1. Yay!! I love meeting King fans! Thank you for commenting on my blog! :D

    I'm now following you as well. I agree wholeheartedly with your review of I Am Number Four too, by the way. :)

    PS. I WISH I only had 7 owned books to be read!! It's more like 200+ *sigh*.

    Oh well - if that's all I have to complain about, life is good, eh? LOL, it's good to meet you! :D

  5. Great books! City of Bones is a brilliant book in my opinion :) Jace Wayland.. *swoon* Say no more. I can't wait to hear what you think of Shiver, as I am about to start reading it myself.

    Happy reading!

    P.S You're a substitute librarian? That sounds like a dream job.. sadly my local libraries are pretty run down and only take on volunteers. Otherwise I'd jump at the chance!

  8. Amber--Yes, and I love it! It's the best job I've ever had. But I can't wait to get my master's and become a "real" librarian! :)

  9. I think I'm going to have to add City of Bones by Cassandra Clare to my to-read-list. I keep hearing about it especially as her new book is out. I'd love to know what you think of it.
