In My Mailbox

In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at the Story Siren! :)

Phew, I don't think I've done one of these in a few weeks! About 6 or so...so there are lots of books I've received, but most I've bought! :)

The first lot...
Angel's Blood - Nalini Singh
Archangel's Kiss - Nalini Sigh.
*Both these books are most definitely adult books. They're pretty intense. But definitely one of the best reads ever. I loved them - Raphael is totally gorgeous and got the whole Archangel thing going for him perfectly!
Heavenly - Jennifer Laurens (I won this thanks to the author! Go check out her blog - NOW! Thanks so much Jennifer!)
Raised by Wolves - Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Hush, Hush - Becca Fitzpatrick. (It's signed! It's signed AND personalised! SQUEE! My first signed book! So excited, thank you SO much to Fallen Archangel and Becca Fitzpatrick!)

And moving right along before I collapse in a fit of excitement...

Dark of the Moon - Racehl Hawthorne
Shadow of the Moon - Rachel Hawthorne
Ghost and the Goth - Stacey Kade
(Read and adored all of the above!)

Now Aussies...read on and pay CLOSE attention!

Halo - Alexandra Adornetto. NO, this is not an ARC. Yes, this is a finished copy. Yes, Goodreads proclaims that it is not released until August 31st. But it was in Kmart today ($16.00 AUD) and Angus and Robertson ($21.99AUD). Perhaps its because the author is Australian. Who knows, but I've been ogling it all afternoon! Aussies, go grab yourself a copy! :)
The Iron Daughter - Julie Kagawa. Some US peeps got this early and I *finally* got my hands on a copy. This is hands down my most coveted book of the year. My mother walked in the room today and laughed, saying "Look at your big smile and your books" (I'd just bought the Iron Daughter, hahahaha).
The Luxe - Anna Godbersen (Thanks to Between The Lines!)
Generation Dead - Daniel Waters (from Angus and Robertson for $5!!!!!!! In what universe do they sell books for $5?!)
Swoon at Your Own Risk - Sydney Salter (HUGE thanks to Sydney and to Amy Holder! I love my signed copy!!!! :))
Caleb and Kate - Cindy Columba-Martinusen
Claire de Lune - Christine Johnson
Crash Into Me - Albert Borris
Forget You - Jennifer Echols
Shadow Hills - Anastasia Hopcus

Phew. That's a load for 6 weeks! Very happy right now, especially after my shopping trip today, hahaha!!! Aussies - Kmart also had Kiss Me Deadly and Shadow of the Vampire in stock but with different covers from the US versions. May I just say, while I hug The Iron Daughter and Halo, that I love Kmart? :-D Hope everyone else has had some awesome weeks!
