In My Mailbox (3) 11/22/2009

(Meme from The Story Siren)

Random Note: ninefly bugged me into getting GoodReads. I'm wingstodust there, so if anyone wants to add me, well, there I am. =D

lol something I noticed last week. At first I thought the # besides the "In My Mailbox" title meant the amount of books you got that week as oppose to, you know, the number of times you did IMM. It feels strange to me that it's actually the latter because, honestly, who cares how many times you've done IMM? (Can you feel my n00b-ness showing through? lulz) I guess the title tags would be confusing if I get the same number of books in a week, so instead I'll be adding the date on the tile as well as the amount of books I got. =D

Nothing bought this week, but I did borrow three books from the library.



Give Up the Ghost by Megan Crewe


I finished it and loved it and I swear the review is coming up soon. It reminds me of Natsume Yuujinchou, except replace Japanese mythology with contemporary ghosts, for those who know their animanga. =D








I Wanna Be Your Shoebox by Cristina Garcia

I first heard of this from Doret and it sounded adorable~ So obviously I had to get it. =D I am a few chapters in and I really like it so far. =D








Ten Cents a Dance by Christine Fletcher

Historical fiction with girls and dancing. How can this possibly go wrong? *optimist*





So, what did everyone else get this week? =D

I have Ten Cents a Dance out from the library right now, the blurb had me hooked right when I picked it up. Enjoy your books!

is this the visit where you were NOT weak? (running is STILL the best strategy btw)

I sorta wanna read Give Up the Ghost too...the cover had me skeptical at first though, something about the pink book maybe =T
then some reviewers said it was really good, I'll be waiting for your review >D

I really want to read I wanna Be Your Shoebox after reading Doret's review. It sounds very cute and funny.
I loved Ten Cents a Dance! Looking forward to your review.
