In My Mailbox #6

In My Mailbox was started by Kristi at The Story Siren
Well, I didn't recieve any books for review this week but I did buy a few and I also recieved some awesome bookish swag goodies from Kimberly Derting and Jessica Verday author of The Hollow trilogy.

-Dreamland by Sarah Dessen. I bought this today with my remaining Christmas Money as I've only read one of her books.
-Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater. I also bought this one.
-The Hollow sticker, bumper sticker and postcard. I'm really excited for The Haunted, the sequel to The Hollow.
-The Body Finder stickers and signed bookmarks. I'm also giving a few of these away for my first giveaway.
I also received one more The Body Finder goodie which is this cute shopper.

I didn't have a great book week but that doesn't really bother me to be honest. For me, it's not about getting free books but actually reading the good ones that I do have.

What did you get in your mailbox?

P.S. A quick note to publishers and/or authors: This doesn't mean I don't like free books :P

Great books, I think. I "very" want to read Shiver and some book of Sarah Dessen - when I get an opportunity. Hope you enjoy!

I have yet to read a Sarah Dessen book but I hear great things about it all the time. And Shiver was great- I hope you agree.

Ohhh thanks for reminding me! I've been meaning to do In My Mailbox for AGES! Where did you get the bag? It's so cool. :D

Your last sentence made me chuckle so much. The thing about getting review books is that you have less time to read the books of your choice. So sometimes it is fantastic to not receive review books. I hope you enjoy Shiver. I thought it was such a great book full of sweet, tender love. Enjoy!

Shiver is amazing, as are all of Sarah Dessen's books. Happy reading!
