In My Mailbox (6)


This past Monday school started again. BLAH!!! I hate trying to get into a new routine and trying to find the time to balance reading for school and reading for this blog. As you may have noticed, I did only one post because I was so overwhelmed with just thinking about what kind of schedule I could work out. Not blogging has made me feel disconnected and very much off kilter. Hopefully, this week will run a little smoother and I can actually catch up on my book reviews.

In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi @ The Story Siren. It’s a wonderful weekly meme where we can share which books we picked up or received in our mailboxes over the past week!

The past couple of weeks, I have received:

Through Interlibrary Loan
:

Another Faust
by Daniel and Dina Nayeri

Academy 7 by Anne Osterlund

Through paperbackswap:

Eragon
by Christopher Paolini
Uglies by Scott Westerfeld
Vampire Kisses by Ellen Schreiber

Borrowed from a friend:

Dear John by Nicholas Sparks

Won:

Witch Ball by Linda Joy Singleton

Bought:

NONE!!! I have made a solid decision not to purchase anymore books until I have read (or at least attempted to read) all the books in my bookshelf. **Must exercise self-control**

Great books this week :) I totally know what you mean about purchasing books lol I feel the same way. I can't stop myself though, it's a bad addiction.

Happy Reading!

I have abandoned the idea of self-control. I'm interested to hear what you think of Academy 7. I've been hearing good things. I know what you mean about not blogging. It is kind of part of my daily rountine now like brushing my teeth. A must!
