In My Mailbox [#13]

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren where we share new books we bought, received, won etc.

This week I bought:

I'm so excited to get this! I was hoping to convince my parents to help me pay for it all week and they finally gave in somewhat (I still had to pay part of it, I would have paid for it myself fully if I didn't need to put gas in my car.)

Library Haul:

Yes, I know. I had a library haul last week also. So, I've really been wanting to read Anna Dressed In Blood but the library closest to me hasnt got a copy yet. So I looked through the online catalog for my counties libraries and saw that they had it at one of the other libraries I live fairly close to. So I went up there with the sole purpose of checking out Anna Dressed In Blood but got the other 3 as well. I was not expecting to find those up there so I grabbed them also.

Won!:

So if anyone remembers like 2 weeks ago there was a Facebook event called Shatterday, where they released the first 25 chapters for one day. I participated off and on throughout the day and I also entered the giveaway for the book! I was one of the 25 winners!!!!! Ahhh!!! I got it in on Friday and I've had the biggest smile on my face since! I also jumped up and down a couple times! Lol. (I also found out I won more books this week but I'm waiting til they come in to announce all that)

For Review:

OMG! This book sounds really good! Definitely go read the synopsis on GoodReads! I couldn't pass up the opportunity to review this when Anthea asked! Thank you so much Anthea!

Gift: 
Thank you Sam for the gift card! Your awesome! It definitely didnt go to waste! :D Now I bet everyones wondering what I bought with it, well. You're just gonna have to wait for it to come in to find out. :P Don't worry, you guys definitely wont be disappointed! :)

    What a great mailbox this week. The Shatter win was especially awesome! I can't believe Anna Dressed in Blood was already at your library. I use an on line library, I'm going to have to go see if I can get a copy.

    Enjoy your books this week. Look forward to reading reviews.

    Wow, your library had Name of The Star ? What a score !

    I know the feeling of books or gasoline. I hate that. You got some amazing books this time around, I pretty much want to read them all.

    Congratulations on winning Shatter Me! I really eager to read that book.

    I didn't like Matched that much but I am still looking forward to reading Crossed. Isn't it such a bummer when you're torn between expenses? Ugh! hate it when it happens. LOL.

    Anyway, great haul! happy reading!

    You're welcome! It's not much, but get yourself a paperback! The Name of the Star sounds very good. I like the cover! Great picks! I don't have a mailbox this week since I'm in the middle of moving. I have to start packing today. Thank you for sharing!

    I think I'm going to have to look up Crossed because I see it cropping up everywhere. The Name of the Star is on my list of to-reads in the very near future. Anna Dressed in Blood sounds interesting. Let me know if you like it. Also, I loved Shade, so hopefully you'll enjoy it as well.

    Thanks for posting to my IMM.
