In My Mailbox (9)

Check out what I got this week and enter My First Giveaway too!

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme run by The Story Siren which explores the books that have been delivered to our mailbox or doorstep or directly into our hot little hands.

 Won: 
Jumpstart the World by Catherine Ryan Hyde
Thank you Random Buzzers
Library:
The Frenzy by Francesca Lia Block
The Deadly Sister by Eliot Schrefer

I was really happy when I found out I won Catherine Ryan Hyde's Jumpstart the World. I've only read her novel, Pay It Forward, but I can't wait to read this one. I'm really intrigued by the premise and it will probably leave my shelf next! I also picked up a couple of books at the library this week. It was my goal to curb my book spending so that I can tackle and make a dent in my TBR pile. Yeah, wish me luck with that. But . . . I just couldn't pass this up

                                 
    Purchased:
     Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro (audio book)

It is the featured Audio Book of the Month on i-Tunes for $9.99
I used an i-Tunes card I received for my birthday, (Thank you, Cathy!) so that doesn't count as spending money, right?

Can't wait to see what was in your mailbox!
