In my Mailbox #18

In my Mailbox is a weekly meme started by The Story Siren which gives bloggers a chance to showcase all the books they received in the previous week (for review, bought, borrowed, ect...) but for which they sometimes have no space to showcase in detail on their blogs.

eARCs:

The Juliet Spell by Douglas Rees

I saw this on netGalley and I thought: Shakespeare, Romeo's Juliet and a spell? And Harlequin Teen! Come on, I have to have this!

*thanks to Harlequin Teen via netGalley for giving me access to this.

Bought & Won:

Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen

I absolutely love Sarah Dessen! So when I came across this in a bookshop close to Central Station (more international press) I simply had to pick it up. The US covers are so much prettier than the UK and German ones, so I'm really glad they had this.

Bloodspell by Amalie Howard

I saw this on another blog and fell in love with the cover. I pre-ordered the book but then the publisher had troubles delivering on time and then my order got lost in the mail and had to be re-ordered. In short: This should have arrived four weeks ago >.<

Elsewhere by Gabriele Zevin

I heard so many good things about this book and it had been on my wish list for a while. So when I spotted it in the same book shop where I bought the Dessen book, I had to pick it up, too^^

Crush Control by Jennifer Jabaley

I won this one from the lovely Ange @ Moonlight Reader! Thank you so, so much!

It sounds like a really good contemporary with a bit of a twist! Can't wait to get started :)

For Review:

Die Dämonen Fängerin. Aller Anfang ist Hölle by Jana Oliver

This is the German ARC for Jana Oliver's The Demon Trapper's Daughter [US]/ Forsaken [UK] and it is the first ever hardcopy ARC that was delivered to my doorstep! You should have seen me jump up and down when I unwrapped it ^_^

*thanks to the lovely people at the S. Fischer Verlag GmbH for sending me this

So yeah, that's my mailbox for this week. I admit I had a bit of a slip in the no-buying-more-books thing. But the bookshop at Central Station is so good and I just can't walk past it without peeking in and if I see something... ogh, I could have bought at least five books more, so leaving with only two was a stellar act of will. I don't get there too often and generally the bus fare isn't worth the trouble if I don't find anything. But I had an appointment in the city, so yeah, I better not mention that I have another appointment next week >.<

Anyway lovelies, tell me: What is in your mailboxes this week?
