In My Mailbox, started by Kristi from The Story Siren is an awesome weekly meme to post what books we’ve received this week; whether it was sent for review from a publisher, purchased at a book store, borrowed from the library, or won from a giveaway.
Lots of great stuff this week! Here are a few books I got this week that I wasn’t able to take down the shore with me. Oh, and by the way? Selecting just 5 books to take on vacation? Not easy.
From the library:
The Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown: I interviewed Eleanor Brown a few months ago, but still haven’t had the chance to pick up her book!
The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han: Everyone raves about this series, and I figured what better time than summer to try it out?
For Review:
Cross Currents by John Shors: This isn’t my normal type of read, but the summary of the story so intrigued me. This book is about the tsunami a few years ago in Thailand.
And this isn’t book related, but it did arrive in my mailbox this week, so I thought it would be fun to share. Many of you know that I’m pretty obsessed with running these days, so I finally purchased a Garmin Forerunner 405 to track my mileage, pace, etc. while I’m running. I can’t wait to use it down the shore this week!
What’s in your mailbox today?
I’ve heard so many raves about The Summer I Turned pretty – I got the whole series last week, so I really need to read them soon 🙂 Enjoy all your books!

Congrats on the great stuff! I’ve had The Summer I Turned Pretty on my to-be-read pile forever, but keep putting it off for some reason. 🙂
Thanks for stopping by! I love Shepard too. Finished Never Have I Ever yesterday…sooo awesome. Can’t wait for the next one!
I’m wanting to read The Weird Sisters!
I got The Weird Sisters at the library a couple of months ago but had to return it before I had the chance to read it. It looks really good, though, so I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it. And yay for The Summer I Turned Pretty. I love that series, and while the first one isn’t my favorite, the next two are AMAZING! Happy reading! 🙂
Great books! The Summer Series is super cute!
Check out Em’s IMM!
You need to read The Summer I Turned Pretty right away! It’s amazing, and the series is–sadly–over, so you can finish it quickly 🙂 It’ll break your heart and then heal it, to be extremely corny.
I can promise you that you’ll love both Eleanor’s book and the Garmin!
I really enjoyed the Summer I Turned Pretty. Happy reading 🙂
Enjoy the Summer I Turned Pretty – everyone seems to love that one 🙂
Thanks for stopping by my blog 😀
I’ll be watching out for your Wierd Sisters review! I’ve been curious about that one!
I can’t believe you got The Weird Sisters from a library! My local never has anything even nearly that new. I’ve heard good things about it though, so I can’t wait to see what you think.
The Summer I Turned Pretty is wonderful, I hope you enjoy it!
Great books this week (and really cool watch)! Happy reading 🙂
I’d say for having to limit yourself, you picked some good books to take!
I’m glad to see I’m not the only one that still hasn’t read the Summer series! Ginger just let me borrow her books so I’ll be starting them soon… we’ll have to discuss!
I absolutely loved The Summer I Turned Pretty, and The Weird Sisters was a great read too. I hope you enjoy them as much. Happy reading!
