In My Mailbox #17

Hosted by The Story Siren. In My Mailbox is a meme where bloggers can share with you what they received in their mailbox/from library/bought/etc.

This week has been productive...not only have I been to the library, I've also bought some fab books as well :)





Desires of the Dead by Kimberly Derting
Many thanks to Emma (ASAMUM) for loaning me this.  I'll be reading it and then returning it, along with some other books and The Body Finder ;)

Would-Be Witch by Kimberley Frost
This one is a library book, I love the cover on it, as well as the blurb on the back.

Mermaid by Carolyn Turgeon
This is on my read list for the Story Siren's debut challenge, gorgeous cover.

The Secret by Rhonda Byran, The Power by Rhonda Byran
These were another recommendation must read, so I'm overjoyed that they're here....I'm currently reading The Secret and it's made a big shift in my thinking already :)

The Guardian Angel's Journal by Carolyn Jess-Cooke
With thanks to Piatkus, (Little Brown Book Group), This is due for publication on 14th April...similar to The Lovely Bones, it tells the story of Margot Delacriox who died and finds herself reliving and experiencing her life over again as she sees the mistakes and biggest regrets of her life and the impact they had.  This is a debut book from a Belfast born author who lives in the North East of England.  I was intrigues when I read about this in Little Brown's catalogue.

Would-Be Witch sounds great, and lucky you, Desire of the Dead! I'm still yet to read The Body Finder, if you can believe. Lots of great books, happy reading :).
