In My Mailbox (102)
Posted In: Uncategorized
Welcome to In My Mailbox! You can find out how to participate and the “official” details on the IMM page.
IMM is a meme I started here at The Story Siren with some inspiration from Alea of Pop Culture Junkie.
The idea behind IMM was not only to put new books on your radar but to also encourage blogger interaction. IMM explores the weekly contents of my mailbox & books bought. And sometimes other fun goodies.
Anyone can participate in IMM and you are not limited to only sharing books that arrive via your mailbox. You can also share books that you’ve bought or books that you’ve gotten at the library.
Freefall by Mindi Scott (unsolicited) Goodreads | Amazon
Deadly by Julie Chibbaro (accepted review request from author) Goodreads | Amazon
The Iron Witch by Karen Mahoney (requested from pub) Goodreads | Amazon
Playing Hurt by Holly Schindler (requested from pub) Goodreads | Amazon
Between Shades of Gray

All those books, save for Iron Witch have been on my wishlist so long! Lucky Siren!
I watched the video and boo-hoo-ed like a mad woman! I can't wait to read Between Shades of Gray.

Playing Hurt and The Iron Witch look really good! I'm reading Freefall now, and It's really good so far.
-
Another A+ video from the Story Siren! Great books, great video.
-
I'm very interested to see what The Iron Witch is like. Great mailbox this week. Have fun reading!
-
You didn't make a fool of yourself hun, I'm an emotional to, so I'm right there with you <3
-
Showing emotion is never foolish. Reading books that draw emotions from me is why I read. Don't worry, we're crying right along with you. Seriously, and I haven't even watched the video for Between Shades of Gray yet.
-
I got Deadly too. And Between Shades of Gray looks really good!
-
I love Deadly's cover! And I really want to read the Iron Witch. And Shades of Gray, of course! I have no doubt it will make me cry as well. Also, Freefall was really good! It really wasn't as dark/depressing as I expected.
Have a great week!
-
Another amazing video! :3 And I must admit that The Iron Witch sounds really interesting!
-
Between Shades of Gray looks amazing. I will definitely be purchasing that as soon as it comes out.

Between Shades of Gray sounds like a powerful and emotional read. I hadn't heard of it before tonight, so thank you for bringing it to my (and everyone else's) attention.
The rest of your books, especially The Iron Witch and Freefall, are on my wishlist as well. I hope you enjoy them all! Happy reading. -

OOps! I entered my linky link twice! Arghhh my mouse and I don't click well together and I meant to go visit other sites and voila… Chaos with mouse.
Sorry Siren… will duke it out with mouse now.
-
I'm torn about whether I want to read Between Shades of Grey. It could be awesome or it could be really boring.
-
In Between Shades of Grey is said to be quite good. I'm glad I picked up a copy at BEA, I'm looking forward to reading it.

Outburst on twitter was before watching the video – because Betweens Shades of Grey totally eclipsed by Iron Witch excitement. I'm going to pick up this book when I see it the store. It sounds like something I would really love to read about. Beautiful cover, too.

OMG! I just watched it and… cried too. I'll need to buy a stock of kleenex to read that one! BUT CANT WAIT!!
And now I also need to read A Blue So Dark! -
Those books look great! I'll have to keep them in mind to read! Have fun reading!
-
As always, a wonderful week of books for you. I totally agree about A Blue So Dark being amazing and unacceptably overlooked. More people should be exposed to that massive mind and heart screw of a book!
Awww, don't feel bad about crying
I'm really looking forward to that book if the content matter can provoke such a response from you. And The Iron Eitch looks AMAZING!! -
I adored Freefall. It's definitely one of my favorites. Between Shades of Gray looks incredible, I went to the site and got teary eyed. Happy Reading Kristi
