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!
I was lucky enough to be invited to the Hot Key bloggers lunch a long while ago: thank you so much to all the people at Hot Key! Anyway, it was loads of fun and I am almost insanely excited for all the books they have coming out this year and next. Not only did I get to meet some lovely bloggers, I also met three wonderful authors: Sarah Mussi, Sally Gardner and Lydia Syson. We all nibbled on some yummy food and chatted before heading into the gorgeous conference room. There, we were all walked thruogh the lauch list (check it out here!) and given a sneak-peek at some of the 2013 books... Also, they explained their awesmoe pie-chart, theme-ring thingy (I forgot what it's actually called... oops!) The three authors all told us a little about thier books and thten we got to Skype with S.J. Kincaid! It was really so cool! It was a lot of fun and it was great to see so many bloggers and authors! Also, I got M&Ms after, which just was the perfect end to the perfect day!!
And it was also my birthday! Which means.... books! Yippeee! Anyhoo, this is what I got.
And this is like a month of books, so sorry for the long post!

Let's just say I was so happy there was much dancing round much of the house. I am loving this book!!!
