In My Mailbox #17
The Story Siren hosts this feature and I end up adding a ton of books to my wishlist every week.
All my IMM posts can be found here!
I got two books this week! One from bookmooch and one from super, fantastic, wonderful author Megan Kelley Hall!! It's the MKH book that I would be squealing about if I had the ability to speak this weekend.
The Silvery Past - Windsweptby Candice F. Ransom
It's about a girl, and there's mystery and possibly suspense and she likely meets a guy and he might be questionable. You never know who to trust!
And I am now up to 4 books in the Windswept series. I am still trying to get more. I wish I could remember the title of the one I often have memories of. Drat. The nifty thing about this one is that it's written by the author of one of the books that defined my early young adult-hood. Candice F. Ransom - she's the author of Thirteen. Which I suppose I still need to write about on here. I am anxious about reading it again because it always makes me cry. Always.
The Lost Sisterby Megan Kelley Hall
Sisters are born, not chosen…Maddie Crane is grappling with the disappearance of Cordelia LeClaire, and trying to escape the grasp of The Sisters of Misery—an insidious clique of the school’s most powerful girls, whose pranks have set off a chain of horrific events, and who have Maddie in their sights…Beware the sister betrayed…Now in a prestigious boarding school far away from her mysterious hometown of Hawthorne, Massachusetts, Maddie feels free from danger. But when an unmarked envelope arrives at her dorm containing a single ominous tarot card, Maddie realizes with terror that some secrets won’t stay buried. Knowing she must return to Hawthorne—a town still scarred by the evil of the Salem witch trials—Maddie prepares to face the fears of her past…and the wrath of the sister she wronged.
I am full of YAY! and ZOMGWTFBBQ!* about this book. Thanks ever so much (again) to Megan Kelley Hall for having me on her review list. Once I get this post written up I'm diving into the book.Also? The cover is so much more beautiful in real life. The colours are simply stunning!What did you get this week?*Oddly? Not flagged by spell check as a misspelled word. Really? Do I want a spell checker that acknowledges chat speak and stupid acronyms? I can assure you that ZOMGWTFBBQ is not an actual word.**** Hang on, it is NOW. On the third spell check. Weird. But it's not flagged in the above footnote though. Wordpress is odd sometimes. Ahh, I see. Firefox doesn't like it, but Wordpress things it's just fine. The war of the spell checkers!
