In My Mailbox is a posting idea run by Kristi at The Story Siren (read all about it here: In My Mailbox)
for bloggers to share the books they’ve gotten that
week to help publicize as many titles as possible. It’s a
little preview on what book reviews to anticipate along with
a way to build excitement about new titles coming out.
All titles link to goodreads so you can add books to your
“to-read” list.

I want to read Lie after reading a little of it on their Facebook page. I also have to read Daughter of Smoke and Bone. I read some of it and it is awesome. Weird, but mesmerizing! I haven't heard of Bigger Than a Bread Box, but it looks great. Don't forget Dear Bully comes out on the 6th of this month! I think all the schools need that on their shelves!
