In My Mailbox (43)

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

Purchased:
A Friday Night Lights Companion: Love, Loss, and Football in Dillon Texas
Edited by Leah Wilson
The Near Witch by Victoria Schwab (signed)
Hourglass by Myra McEntire (signed)
Across the Universe by Beth Revis (signed)

Traded:
Sean Griswold's Head by Lindsey Leavitt (ARC)
Thanks Lisa from Turning Pages

I just returned home from my road trip to the From ASH to NASH book tour with Victoria Schwab, Myra McEntire and Beth Revis. I purchased a copy of each of their books and picked up FNL Companion too. I'm sure I will want to watch it all over again. This was a great week for books and I will share more about the author event in a blog later this week. I also traded my copy of Shade (which I loved) for Sean Griswold's Head. I am determined to read all of The Contemps challenge novels and this is another one on the list. Lisa - thanks for the trade!!

    Yay for HOURGLASS! I liked it a lot, and you have a signed copy now! Very cool.

    I still need to read ACROSS THE UNIVERSE!

    Awesome books this week. I've been wanting to get myself Sean Griswold's Head for a while now, but I keep forgetting. Hourglass sounds great too. Australian bookshops are pretty slack, I can never find anything over here.

    Here's my IMM this week

    I wish I had time to read that many published books! I haven't read a published book in over three weeks, I've been so swamped with manuscripts from my internship. But anyway, Happy Reading! I hope you enjoy them all!
