In My Mailbox (#20)

In My Mailbox was created by Kristi at The Story Siren.  It's a perfect way to see who's reading and review what.  Awesome!

Guess what!  My first hardcopy For Review books appeared in my mailbox on Friday!  I bounced off the walls, and 'squee'ed a little (Sammee, you'll know what I mean!).  It was as big a milestone as my first ever eBook For Review.  Anyway, I'd like to give the biggest thanks to Bloomsbury and Bloomsbury-Ian in particular!  Thank you!
For Review:

Haunting VioletWolf BloodTempest Rising
The CardturnerFlawless
Haunting Violet by Alyxandra Harvey (Goodreads | Amazon)
Where The Dead Lead
The Living Must Follow
Yay yay yay!  I've wanted this since I first saw it!  I can't seem to stop grinning.  I started reading the moment I got it, and now I'm on page 130, or something equally ridiculous.  I love it! 
Wolf Blood by N.M. Browne (Goodreads | Amazon)
Now, this one I didn't even know about, but I'm loving it as well.  Think werewolves.  Then, think Roman-Celtic Britain.  Now mix the two together, add some amazing mythology and history, and viola!  You have the basic idea of what Wolf Blood is about.  It's an incredible take on the wolf lore that I'm loving to pieces.
Tempest Rising by Tracy Deebs (Goodreads | Amazon)
Surf The Wave To Love
I've seen this quite a few places recently, and I've wanted it since I first saw it.  Now... Yay!  I have it!  And it's as good as I hoped!  Gotta love mermaids, but Tracy Deebs' take: ah-maz-ing!
The Cardturner by Louis Sachar (Goodreads | Amazon)
I loved Sachar's Holes, and I can't wait to see what this is like.  I've seen excellent reviews, and I'm really look forward to it!
Flawless by Lara Chapman (Goodreads | Amazon)
Gorgeous Friend.  Shared Crush.  Big Problem
This was on On My Wishlist just a few weeks ago!  So I am soo happy to have it!  Ah, teen drama: love it!

Thanks again to Bloomsbury-Ian! 

Shock of all shocks, I didn't buy a single book this week!  Well, free kindle books don't really count do they? 
Ah, even if they do I'm too busy!  Fortnight of Guests is starting TOMORROW!  So keep your eye out over the next two weeks, 'cause I have some awesome guests!  :D

That's me,

What did you guys get this week?
