*In My Mailbox is meem created by Kristi at The Story Siren and inspired by Alea at Pop Culture Junkie
I'm starting In My Mailbox this week because I got a small mountain of books - some for review, some were prizes, some were gifts and some I bought (because I don't have enough books). I decided to tackle it in a vlog because I made a pact with Nicole at Word For Teens to do one and figured this was an easy way to kill two birds with one stone. (It's a ridiculously bad video thanks to a poorly lit office and a dying camera. And I look stupid to boot! Yay!)

You got some good ones! I have been reading great reviews of This World We Live In and I plan to start that series soon. I also want to read Will Grayson, Will Grayson. And I enjoyed Leaving Gee's Bend. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYAY! I'm so glad you got some great books for your birthday! Great job on the vlog! I've yet to one and am a little scared to do one. You have some amazing books. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteYou'll have to let us know how you feel about Darklife, because I have been wondering the same thing as you.
ReplyDeleteBlog more!!! you're too cute!!! Great books and hope you enjoy them all!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo amazing books this week! Your vlog was awesome, I second whoever above said you should continue vlogging!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so brave. I know I should take a crack at Vlogging, but....*runs and hides*
ReplyDeleteGreat week and awesome vlog! I loved it!!!!! :) And you made me LOL a few times which got me strange looks from my family, ha ha. And MAJOR ditto to books being hurt...
ReplyDeleteMy sister couldn't finish my copy of City of Glass because she crumbled under the pressure of my threat; "Not a single crease in that cover or your life as you know it will be over!!" (jokes but she still couldn't keep it, LOL...) :O
Wow awesome new reads! Lucky you got a copy of Forgive My Fins!
ReplyDeleteYay for vlog!
Okay, A - HOW DID I NOT KNOW IT WAS YOUR BIRTHDAY!? Happy Birthday! I feel like a jackass now, thanks. I have to buy you a belated present.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, this IMM was adorable and you should do many, many more.
Thirdly, Life As We Knew It!!!!!
I really liked Darklife ... read the ARC with some hesitation, but found it to be pretty awesome. Plus the cover is really cool. Some of my enthusiasm for this book could be from my weird obsession with deep sea stuff and marine biology, and also with Sphere. : ) You're so natural in your "vlogging"! I'd be horrified to do that.
