In My Mailbox
 
In my Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren. The idea of In My Mailbox is to bring books to the attention of blog readers and to encourage interaction with other blogs.
 
I’m pretty excited about the books I have this week! I just don’t know which one to read first!
 
Pegasus by Robin McKinley
 
So, the publishers of Pegasus (Putnam) hosted this really amazing promotion. If you plan a “Pegasus and Cake” event (a get together to talk about Pegasus/McKinley books and eat goodies) they will send out a free copy of the book and a poster of the gorgeous cover. I am hosting two with my students and I received the book this week. It’s so pretty!
 
 
 
 
 
The Dark Divine by Bree Despain
 
The ebook version of this book was under $3.00 at http://www.barnesandnoble.com/. I just got a Nook so I couldn’t pass it up! I’ve been meaning to read it for some time. Hopefully I’ll get to it soon.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The next two books are from the Scholastic book fair that I’m running at my school this week.
 

How I, Nicky Flynn, Finally get a Life (and a Dog) by Art Corriveau
 
Art Corriveau is going to be at the ALAN workshop in Orlando at the end of this month. I’m really excited about it. I’ve been trying to read as ma
ny of the books as I can. This one looks great for my middle school students!
 
 
 
 
 
if i stay by Gayle Forman
 
This book has been on my list forever! I was super excited to see it on the book fair! Kiersten White recommended it on her blog and on twitter. I knew that I had to have it!

 

I’m sure that I’ll but more from the book fair but I’m limiting myself for now… of course, it’s only been “open” for one day.

    LOl — I got Dark Divine for the exact same reason! I just got a Nook and saw it was on sale. Then I read some of the reviews and it looks like it’ll be good! So I’m looking forward to reading it.
