In my Mailbox (37)

A huge thanks to Kristi the wonderful story siren for hosting IMM as always. She is fab and you should check her site! www.thestorysiren.com

I didn't think I'd have anything to post for IMM this week and then I got two parcels this morning which were both incredibly exciting with review books and a read it swap it book turned up!! Check these gorgeous things out!



The Forrest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan (UK paperback)
I have been meaning to get a copy of this for ages and ages and when it popped up on readitswapit.co.uk I seized the chance! Looking forward to it.

Rosebush by Michelle Jaffe (UK paperback)
This book looks absolutely amazing - I have wanted it for ages (or it at least seems that way). I can't wait to start it!

Red riding Hood by Sarah Blakeley-Cartwright (UK paperback)
Another one that looks fab - I may have to persuade hadders to take me to see it when its released so I need to get it read before then!


I know what you did last summer by Lois Duncan (UK paperback)
I watched the film of this years ago - this is a rerelease as I think it was written years ago. I am told (by the press release) that it is much better than the film!

Desires of the Dead by Kim Derting (UK paperback)
I don't think this needs any introduction. I literally cannot wait to get started with it!

I am currently reading Rosebush, I had it on reserve at my library from the day it was released and just got my hands on it last week. It is great so far!

Happy reading.

I'm so jealous of you for having Rosebush! It sounds amazing. I Know What You Did Last Summer.. I think we watched the movie every time someone had a birthday party when I was like 12 or 13. I hope the book is better :)

What a great book week for you! Rosebush! :) I think I'm going to add that Red Riding Hood book to my wishlist, the movie looks excellent. I think I read the Lois Duncan book when I was little, but maybe I'm just dreaming that.

And I really liked The Forest of Hands and Teeth!

Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm now following you. I recently read Forrest of Hands and Teeth - didn't think I would like it, but I LOVED it. I'm looking for all things zombie, now! But I'm not sure any other zombie books can top this one. Hope you enjoy!

I got I Know What You Did Last Summer last week, but my edition is the reprint with the movie cover. I think it was originally published in the 1970s.

I have such lust for your bookshelf... it looks so pretty and well-organized. My own bookshelf is a disorganized hodge-podge of double and triple stacked items!
