In My Mailbox explores the contents of my mailbox on a weekly basis. Of course I only mention the really cool things, like books! If you would like to participate and have your own “In My Mailbox” post, you can find more information here. (This post was inspired by Alea of Pop Culture Junkie.)
First of all, let me just say. Yes, my book fairy is a real person. Her name is Heather. And she is the most awesome person ever. No, she is not a publisher, and no she is not an author. Heather works for a book wholesale company. She thinks I’m doing her a favor by taking these books off her hands. When really it’s the other way around. No, I’m not at the liberty to give you her email address. Yes, I am LUCKY!

Wow your Book Fairy it GOOD!
Happy reading!
Your video is hilarious
I love it!
lol awesome vlog. Very jealous of you though. I think you stole all my books and that's why I had like none arrive this week.
hehe
Wow that is an amazing box of books. I think I am going to come steal some of them, like CAPTIVATE. So jealous! =] Enjoy!
One of your best vlogs yet! Loved the jumping & squee-ing! I'd jump & squee too with such a generous Book Fairy. Lucky girl!
Enjoy!
OMG! YOU ARE HILARIOUS! I kept LOLing for Hours "After" that! I "Wish" I could "Captivate" a book fairy like yours! You have every book blogger's "Dream Life" seriously! I am dying to read quite a few of those, so "By the time you read this, I'll be dead"!!!!!
Yeah, I just LOLed writing that too! XOXO- ;D Sab!
Your book fairy is incredibly awesome. Congrats on all the great books!
I must get better internet, I read the other comments and think I must be missing something by not watching your vlog!
That's a great book fairy, I think we all need one of those. My husband is usually my book fairy (so not quite as much fun) and I get spoiled about every six months, but I gave up my book splurge this time around to get some stuff so we have somewhere to put our towels and tp in the bathroom.
Enjoy, I can't wait to hear about some of those!
HAHHAHA ok you're totally crazy girl! I love it!
What an awesome pile of books you got there girl, i'm full of book-lust.
I was wondering what is the Book Fairy Box? Books that were sent by a publisher? or a friend of you sending you books? *confused*
Maybe I wouldn't be confused If I started following your blog earlier, but Only discovered it a few weeks ago =)
See, this is why I love you. That being said…I'm so envious of you right now…
You have an awesome book fairy
Holy whoa, you're so lucky. I'm totally seething in jealousy right now! Haha. Pretty entertaining video as well. I laughed quite a lot. Great books, happy reading! Looks like you're set for quite awhile!
This is the first time I've seen your video of In My Mailbox and I loved it! You are TOO funny! I get just like you when I get books in the mail. That was so entertaining!
GREAT books! I was peaking at your bookshelf and would love to see a tour of it.
Wow, your book fairy LOVES you!!!!
Wowwww, I want a book fairy! You got a ton of great books from her!
haha wow you got alot of ARCs that I really want to read. Enjoy!!
LUCKY!
WOW YOU ARE SO LUCKY!!! I can tell that you are definitely very excited and if I was you I would be too. Hope you enjoy reading all your fantastic books, there are a lot of great titles there.
You are too cute!! I love your IMM vlogs
I am so freakin jealous of your IMM loot!
You got some books that I have not seen or heard of, which is awesome! I'll be doing some digging on Goodreads. And I'll be keeping my eyes open on B4G.
Loved it, and now I'm soo jealous (Captivate?!!)
Awesome and OMG FALLEN! Please read it soon and review, OMG I want want want that book and the feather!!! Awesome! Your vlog rocks:-)
Oh how I wish to own the book fairy box
Wow, zomg! Your book fairy is awesome! And this vlog was so cute! Your expressions and reactions are so fun! Ehehehehe! I'd totally be the same way. ^^;;.
Man! Do I wish I had a book fairy like you! My life would be complete. Well, I'd also need to see my Royals win a world series too. And THEN my life would be complete.
You're video is hilarious!
SO many awesome fantastic books!
I like your happy dancing. It's funny LOL.

Enjoy your books, Kristi.
Ok, so first of all I have to say that, that was hilarious!! And second I am so envious! I would love to have a book faerie but that wont happen
Anyways, when you said you were putting Hex Hall on Books for Grabs I was so excited but not having a job kinda limits that. Anyways, I went to my dad and he told me no
I have too many, but maybe I will be able to buy my own later.
Again you are so lucky!
So jealous! I need a book fairy like that!
Holy hell, how can we not all hate you from the bottom of our hearts?!?!?! You know we don't really, but c'mon, this is just OUT OF THIS WORLD! Life of Glass! Dream Life! Vinyl Princess! WISH!!!!!!! And so many others! *explodes with jealousy*
)) Happy for you though, this is amazing!!
ps: That Book Fairy is possibly the best person ever??
Ha Ha – you crack me up. LOL. I wonder if I wish hard enough I may too get a book fairy? Very jealous of before I fall and fallen – look forward to your reviews. Happy reading:)
I would *love* a book fairy! Especially if she could magic me a copy of Before I Fall. Or… well actually, any of those. How awesome!
What a great collection of books. Look forward to your reviews, especially Fallen.
(btw I've fluffed my first link! It does link to my recent IMM post but the title is wrong.)
OMG, I was sooo squeeing for you watching the v-log. I am so looking forward to seeing your reviews of Before I Fall and Fallen.
Great v-log, haave fun reading all those books : )
I am green with book envy!
I loved your vlog! So funny!
Hurrah, I am so excited to see what your book fairy has brought you finally.
Seriously, yay for new books, and awesome new books at that. Also big huge ass yay for purchasing a book about badass killer unicorns
This is the type of video that I enjoy! You were funny and did stuff! Also, you know, Xander!
Awesome books – wow! Though my first instinct is to covet that body glitter. I'm a glittery person, what can I say!
Loved the vlog! And I am oh so jealous of Before I Fall.
And yay for playing Kaci! I love that song!
Leaving Paradise. Hopefully you will love it as much as I did. I can't say anymore or I'll give something away. I keep trying to write my review but it always contains spoilers. Just suffice it to say that my heart hurt for days…and when I would get up with my daughter in the middle of the morning it all came rushing back for two days.
I <3ed your video! I watched it last night and i'm soooo jealous! That book fairy of yours is sooo awesome =D. I wish I had a book fairy haha =)
What a great video to watch in the morning! And what great books. I still haven't read or even gotten Rampant, even though I have been drooling over it for months. Incarceron is another I will have to keep my eye on as well. Happy happy reading!
I'm so jealous of your book fairy, lol.
You're so bubbly! That's awesome, it reminds me of my best friend!
Oooh, some great titles. Or a lot of great titles. Have fun reading!
A book fairy? Very lucky indeed! Enjoy your books
You had a great week! Also, I loved your vlog.
The vlog isn't loading for me, but I'm jealous of your books fairy (although, I have some book fairies, too. They're awesome!). I can't wait to read The Maze Runner, it looks awesome. Enjoy all of your books
That vlog was too funny. Is it bad that I want to be your friend bc you seem so awesome? (And I swear, it's not because you have a bazillion books that I'm drooling for.)
And I love that you're also in your twenties and have a YA addiction. (I love getting strange looks in the bookstore because I'm not in the "grown up" section.)
Anyway, thanks for sharing!
This is the funnest vlog yet! There is something about a happy dance that translates very well. Mine looks very similar, esp. the rubber hands move.
Great great books this week! (always love seeing your puppy!)
I seriously need to get better bandwidth. It would take me about an hour to watch your vlog.
I am starting to think I need to invest in mobile broadband.
Anyhow, another wonderful selection of books this week.
And I just want to say a big thanks for your recent blogger pet hates post. I added a contact email on my blog because of that very helpful post and the next day I had three emails about blog related things. So THANKS for sharing. Your advice is so helpful!
Lucky for sure! As always! Do you have a separate book room in the house? If not, I think you should consider it seeing how much you get like every week!
Your book box was awesome, but I am so jealous of your shelves! I wish I had that many bookcases!
Anyhow, you got some on my wishlist, I can't wait to see reviews. Happy reading!
Wow. You are positively hilarious! lol
You got so many awesome books! I am jealous! Also you are not crazy for jumping up and down and going crazy! I would have too!
