In My Mailbox (5)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.



Ok well since the mailman forbade to bring me any new books this week, I went to the library. I've only been there twice ever, and i've lived here since 2000... yes crazy indeed. I had to ask where certain sections are because the library here is quite big and I had no freaking clue where anything was. While it is big, the teen/YA section completely sucks but I managed to snag a few things that I want to read.

Here is what I got:

Magic Study by Maria V Snyder - Wootwoot so excited to read this! I loveddd Poison Study, check out my review from earlier this week in case you missed it!

Going Too Far by Jennifer Echols - This is one of the books for the book forum I am in. I've heard good things about it so i'm looking forward to starting it(which will be later tonight!)


and last but not least...


Eyes Like Stars by Lisa Mantchev - Ok I'm seeing Perchance to Dream everywhere and both covers are awesome so I was like I need to read this.. so I got it!

I also got a couple things I won:

A Booklight from Ivy(@bookreadertimes)

&

A Signed Shadowhills Bookmarker from Adrienne(Addicted Book Reader)


I am expecting a lot in the mail so hopefully I get some more for next week's IMM. Did you get anything good this week!?!?

Interview with Kimberly Derting and yes a giveaway!!!

Wow these contest are really adding up. I should have done one HUGE contest for all the books i'm giving away, but authors are very busy people and I didn't know when I would have which interviews back so I just separated them. So anyways, there's this book coming out in March called The Body Finder, i'm mostly sure you've heard of it but if not here's the trailer, watch it! Now that you know about this awesome book, how about an interview with the author! Yes, Kimberly has been kind enough to stop by and answer a few questions. Q: To start, can you tell us a little bit about yourself? A: Let’s see…I live in the Northwest with my husband and our three kids. I’m always surrounded by teenagers (my kids and their friends), which I think helps with my writing. Sometimes I’ll ask for their opinions on dialogue. Sometimes I just eavesdrop and call it “research.” Q: For those reading that don't already know, what is The Body Finder about? A: Sixteen-year...

Character Interview & Giveaway!

So for my part in the Tyger, Tyger blog tour for Teen Book Scene I did a character interview. Well im unconvential in my ways and since I wanted to ask multiple characters questions, I decided to ask five characters one question each, instead of asking one character five questions! Without further adeiu, I give you my multiple character interview! ~~~~~ Aiden: Singing is a huge part of your life. What is your favorite song to sing, and what is your favorite song to listen to? My favorite song to sing is, “Aiden is the hero.” I make up the words when I hear music. I like to listen to old songs, guy songs, not princess songs. There’s always a song around me. Like in the movies, when the music tells you things about what’s about to happen. I listen to it, and that’s how I know what to sing. Tonight, I want my Dad to sing the monsters away before I go to sleep, because I keep hearing, Bad Moon Rising http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BmEGm-mraE&feature=related My dad will make it...
