In My Mailbox: an epic cutie edition

Posted 26 June, 2011 by Danny in / 21 Comments

The idea is to post the books you got this week,
whether you bought them, got them as a gift,
from the library, or received them to review.

This week’s blogger is cutie.

It’s been a while since I’ve share books I’ve bought,

received, rented, what-have-you.

So let’s drop the rambling and get right down to business.

Shall we?!

Books Bought:

Does that mean I haven’t bought any??

Err… no, but I’m not buying a mountain of them a week.

So that’s a step in the right direction!

The new bookmark pictured is my motto for this summer.

*takes a deep cleansing breath*

As for my good friend the library,
I have rented soooo many book of late.
From poetry to art-books to comics to ya to children books.

I love the cover for The Near Witch. It's gorgeous. And Putting Makeup on Dead People looks interesting. Oh and I LOVED Legacy! Totally awesome book. I couldn't believe the author was only 14-15 when she wrote it! And I <3 The Last Unicorn. Love it. You got so many cool things! Totally jealous!

You can check out my if you want!

I'm finding it hard to read The Last Unicorn on my ereader (can't read the words, but the pictures are wonderful). I'm going to try my laptop later to get that one read (should be a quick read). 🙂

Great IMM!

Yeah, I had to read The Last Unicorn on the computer. It wasn't so bad. My kids have been trying to read the digital comics on my Nook and it's just fail. I'm thinking I will just HAVE to buy an iPad. hehe

Your opinion is… AWESOME! I completely agree. I had borrowed the book from the library and was waiting for it to come out in paperback. And I will only encourage you to buy Will Grayson and What Happened to Goodbye. Both phenomenal reads!

You know, I requested The Near Witch and Putting Make Up On Dead People months ago and was only recently approved. I have no clue what is up with them… Sorry about that. =(

Oops!! I totes read through all the comments first and started commented after so I answered you in a comment above… *headdesk* Did ya get all that?! LOL

I had to read TLU on the computer as well. It wasn't that hard, but I definitely wish it was easier to read on my Nook.

And now I'll go hang my head in shame for all this comment shenanigans!
