In My Mailbox is hosted by The Story Siren!

I went to the local used bookstore this week and came home with some great reads that both my husband and I are looking forward to!

A Northern Light by Jennifer Donnelly-ok this one was for me, I just read it for class and loved it!

The Amulet of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud


The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett

The Book of Three by Lloyd Alexander-my husband has already started reading this one


From the library I got:

Splendor by Anna Godbersen-this book better end the way I want or I'm throwing it across the room!

Lips Touch: Three Times by Laini Taylor

I also started putting some holiday themed books on hold for the 2009 Holiday Reading Challenge! I just hope they get here in time!

Ooh, you got Amulet of Sarmakand! I love the trilogy that it is a part of. Absolutely hilarious - I hope you like it too.

::buttons her lips about "Splendor"::

For what it's worth, I liked the book as a conclusion to the series. And that's all I'm saying about that.

Happy reading!

Ohhh, I've got both SPLENDOR and LIPS TOUCH THREE TIMES on my TBR list for post-Cybils reading.

Happy reading!

Loved A Northern Light!

I gave up on The Luxe Series after I struggled through the first two. I'm not a history purist, but I would like my historical fiction a little more eh, accurate.

I read The Amulet of Samarkand and the other books in the trilogy last year and enjoyed them. they are quite different, but I thought pretty darn good. :)

Can't wait to see what you think.
