In My Mailbox #2/Mailbox Monday: May 15-21, 2011 Edition

So I decided to do a combined In My Mailbox and Mailbox Monday post this week.  I may continue doing it this way from now on.

In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren.  Mailbox Monday is being hosted this month over at Mari Reads.  The purpose of both meme's is pretty much the same thing.  They highlight books that you have received in your mailbox over the past week.  I must say that I keep receiving a lot of books and I really love it.

Here is what I received this week.

1. Island of Lost Girls by Jennifer McMahon

2. Lily of the Nile by Stephanie Dray

3. Memoirs of a Bitch by Francesca Petrizzo

4. Lost in the River of Grass by Ginny Rorby

5. When you Dare by Lori Foster

6. Numbers by Rachel Ward

7. If I Stay by Gayle Forman

8. Graffiti Moon by Cath Crowley

9. Cleopatra: A Novel by Stacy Schiff

10. The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender

11. Abandon by Meg Cabot

12. Dismantled by Jennifer McMahon

13. Ain't No Sunshine by Kimberley A. Johnson & Ann Werner

All of the books were bought by me apart from Ain't No Sunshine which was sent to me for review by the author.

What did you get in your mailbox this week?

Hi Donna,

Thanks for the follow. I added you on GFC as well. I love the site and the music is a nice touch (I love Lady Antebellum)!

Hi Majanka,

Thanks for the follow. Love your site. I especially love the dual language reviews. Makes me wish I could speak another language well enough to do that.
