In My Mailbox #7

Hey guys!

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi @ The Story Siren and inspired by Alea @ Pop Culture Junkie.

I haven't done an IMM post in a while, so I've got a lot of books to show you today! They are like 3 weeks worth, so it's going to be a very long post. (I got most of them a couple of weeks ago, but people were showing their Book-Expo America hauls then, so I just kept my little pile to myself and drooled over their posts instead LOL).

Part I:

• Sarutul mortii – Oana Stoica Mujea & Andra Pavel  

(which would be Kiss of Death in English; it's a crime, mystery Romanian novel) 

• Fallen Angel (Fallen Angel #1) by Heather Terrell 

(won from Tezza @ Spades High Reads)

• The Goddess Test (Goddess Test #1) by Aimée  Carter

(I did a lot of jumping up and down around the room when I got this, because it's one of my favorite debut novels of  2011 and

it came as a surprise from Aimée, who > signed and personalized it ♥)

•  The Seraph Seal by Leonard Sweet, Lori Wagner 

(for review from BookSneeze.Com)

• Born at Midnight (Shadow Falls #1) by C.C. Hunter 

(I won this in a contest @ AwesomeSauce Book Club a while ago and I think I mentioned it before, 

but it didn't make its way to my mailbox until recently, so here it is)

• Divergent (Divergent #1) by Veronica Roth (bought)

• Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini (bought)

(despite all the not so positive reviews and the similarities with Twilight, I ADORE this book! And the  cover > is so pretty and shiny...♥ )

• Fallen (Fallen #1) by Lauren Kate (bought) &  

• I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore (won in a contest on Facebook) - 

(the Romanian editions; it took them very long to get in the mail)

• Revolution by Jennifer Donnelly 

(I got it as a RAK from Evie  @ The Bookfiend Reviews Books 

so this involved a lot of squealing as well, because I've been dying to read it for ages 

and Evie even sent me her hardcover! copy all the away from the US!♥ )

Part II

• Spider's Bite  and  Web of Lies 

(Elemental Assassin, #1, #2) by Jennifer Estep  

(I got the audiobooks a while ago and because this became one of my favorite UF series,

 I wanted to have the paperbacks on my shelf too; 

books #3 and #4 should be on their way)

• Mind Games and Double Cross 

(The Disillusionists Trilogy #1 & #2) by Carolyn Crane

(This series has a very special place in my heart, so of course I had to get the paperbacks too; 

if only Book Depo wouldn't have sent me 

Double Cross with dented cover...*sigh*;

 anyway, review to come)

• Wicked: Witch & Curse (Wicked, #1-2) by Nancy Holder & Debbie Viguié  

(from author to review)

• The Iron Daughter (Iron Fey, #2) by Julie Kagawa  

(from the publisher Harlequin Teen UK aka MiraInk)

• The Iron Queen (Iron Fey, #3) by Julie Kagawa  

(as a RAK from Birgit @ The Book Garden)

(I have a little problem with this series; the covers don't match; I also have two copies of The Iron Daughter, so I think I'll give away one of them and then buy myself copies of the other books in the series to match)

• Once Dead, Twice Shy

Early to Death, Early to Rise

Something Deadly This Way Comes

(Madison Avery trilogy) by Kim Harrison (bought)

Once again, the covers don't match. I hate it when that happens! And I don't understand why publishers change the covers of just some of the books in the series (see Nightshade by Andrea Cremer). Or why they publish the first book in the series one size, and the last one in the series another size (see The Iron Fey series). Grr! If you have the same problem with any of these series and my books could match your series, let me know, and maybe we could trade them or something! Makes sense? LOL) 

Part III

 *e-books, e-galleys, audibooks 

• Misfit by Jon Skovron  (NetGalley) 

• The Near Witch by Victoria Schwab (NetGalley)  

• Rebirth (Aftertime, #2) by Sophie Littlefield (NetGalley)    

(I requested them like years ago, but they just got approved last week)  

• Witchlanders by Lena Coakley   (S& S GalleyGrab)  

• Fury (Fury #1) by Elizabeth Miles (S & S GalleyGrab)  

• Wildefire by Karsten Knight (S & S GalleyGrab) 

Oh my... This book... *sigh* I've been DYING to read it! I sort of hyperventilated when I got that email from  Simon & Schuster and I thought I was going to read it right away! But then the exams got in the way... Then review requests from authors... Then the Graduation... Then Real Life madness... *sigh* Anyways, as soon as I get myself a bit organized and the To-Review list gets shorter, forget about all the books mentioned above, Wildefire is what I'm going to read! (/end of rambling)

• Summer's Crossing (Iron Fey #3.5) by Julie Kagawa  

(you know, to complete my not-matching Iron Fey series) 

• The Eyes that See (The Balancer Chronicles) by Chris Adonn (from author to review)

• Bloodshot (Cheshire Red Reports #1) by Cherie Priest 

(audiobook; I'm almost done with this one and it's pretty good, I really enjoyed it so far;

 the narrator does a great job IMO)

• Fantasy Lover (Dark-Hunter, #0.5 Prequel) by Sherrilyn Kenyon (audiobook)

I got this from my friend Cristina, who blogs at Bibliophile Mystery (btw, check out her cute blog), because she and Julia here drove me crazy with this series so I said it was about time to give it a shot and see what's all the fuss about! Problem is I actually love it, but there's no way I'm going to buy the gazillion audiobooks that are now available for this series (I'm not rich here people), so girls, you brought this on me, you give me the books!;) Thanks!♥ 

Um... Still here? I also got a lot of cute little bookmarks from the Book Depo with all those orders, but I'm too lazy to take a picture now. :))

Thank you to all the authors, publishers and amazing bloggers who sent me the books! You all made my hellacious exams period so much better!♥

Phew! That's a lot of pics and links! LOL I have a feeling I'm still forgetting something, but I'll mention it in my next IMM...

What did you get in your mailbox? (Feel free to leave links in the comments)

Happy reading!

P.S. There's still time to enter my Graduation Giveaway and the Tracking Shadows giveaway!;)
