In My Mailbox #5


In My Mailbox was created by Kristi at The Story Siren. I got some great library books this week, just in time to finish up my Borrowed Book Challenge and I noticed some ebooks that I have been eyeing for a while were free on Amazon so I got those as well.


From the library:
Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
Legend by Marie Lu
Don’t Expect Magic by Kathy McCullough
Neuromancer by William Gibson


Free books from Amazon:
Hollowland by Amanda Hocking, The Emerald Talisman by Brenda Pandos and The Soulkeepers by G.P. Ching. I also got the following short stories free from Amazon: Tomorrow is Today (A prequel to the upcoming Tempest) by Julie Cross, First Frost by Jennifer Estep and Tortured by Caragh O’Brien.

What did you get this week?

Cover Reveal: Shatter Me

Title: Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
Release Date: Nov. 15, 2011
Publisher: HarperTeen
Genre: Dystopia, Paranormal
Goodread Summary: Juliette hasn't touched anyone in exactly 264 days. The last time she did, it was an accident, but The Reestablishment locked her up for murder. No one knows why Juliette's touch is fatal. As long as she doesn't hurt anyone else, no one really cares. The world is too busy crumbling to pieces to pay attention to a 17-year-old-girl. Diseases are destroying the population, food is hard to find, birds don't fly anymore, and the clouds are the wrong color. The Reestablishment said their way was the only way to fix things, so they threw Juliette in a cell. Now so many people are dead that the survivors are whispering war- and The Reestablishment has changed its mind. Maybe Juliette is more than a tortured soul stuffed into a poisonous body. Maybe she's exactly what they need right now. Juliette has to make a choice: Be a weapon. Or be a warrior.

In this electrifying debut, Tahereh Mafi presents a world as riveting as The Hunger Games and a superhero story as thrilling as The X-Men. Full of pulse-pounding romance, intoxicating villainy, and high-stakes choices, Shatter Me is a fresh and original dystopian novel—with a paranormal twist—that will leave readers anxiously awaiting its sequel.
With this beautiful cover and exciting description, Shatter Me is one of my most anticipated reads of the fall! It combines my two favorite genres, dystopia and paranormal, and I have heard so many great things about this book. Are you looking forward to Shatter Me?
