In My Mailbox #33



In My Mailbox was created by Kristi at The Story Siren and inspired by Alea at Pop Culture Junkie.




FOR REVIEW:
Ultraviolet by R J Anderson - YA paranormal supernatural - actually not quite sure.  Reading it a the moment and it is very unique.  Thanks to Hachette Australia.
Glow by Any Kathleen Ryan - YA sci-fi.   I am loving the Aussie cover.  Thanks to Pan Macmillian Australia.
Amy & Roger's Epic Detour by Morgan Matson - Amazing YA coming age road trip story.  Thanks to Simon & Schuster Australia.
Brother/Sister by Sean Olin - YA contemp.  On the back cover it is described as "It's Flowers in The Attic meets Natural Born Killers".  Thanks to Penguin Australia.


BOUGHT:
Bad Taste In Boys by Carrie Harris - YA debut zombie tale that has the prettiest cover I have ever seen and sounds like so much fun.

WON:
The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson - YA dystopia that I have been wanting for a while.  Thanks to Moonlight Reader.

  10. I’ve heard great things about Ultraviolet but I dislike how they use that foil finishing or whatever on book covers. Makes it dark and unattractive to me.

    Nice week of books! I too got Glow :)

  18. Oh you had such an amazing haul this week!!! I can't wait to read Bad Taste In Boys... where abouts did you buy it from? If it's in Aussie stores already I might pick a copy up tomorrow! I am also giving away a copy on my blog at the moment, so it'd be good if I could review it before the end of the month! :)

  19. Amy & Roger! <3 <3 That cover is pretty cute. :3

    I got Glow too! What is up with the US cover?? Just doesn't look nice. The Aussie cover is way better. It reminds me of Across the Universe.

    Curious to know what you think of Brother/Sister and Jenna Fox. And I hope Bad Taste In Boys is good because it sounds really interesting! :)
