IMM#26

Well, we had the first bit of sunshine and a hint of spring warmth this week! How about you?
By the way, my laptop does look totally dead, so until I can find someone to retrieve all my info and programs like Xara and Artisteer from the hard disk, I'm putting my Monthly features on hold. 

So, back to my mailbox, here is what I've got...

Egalleys


Bought

Camille is my absolute favorite of D'Artigo sisters, plus the book was on insane offer from Amazon £ 2.99!

Ottoman Empire and a beautiful British spy. This book has been on my radar since I first heard of it. You know my penchant for spies :) Plus kindle version is only £ 2.49 - no excuse not to buy it!

Review

Thank you, Penguin UK! I was surprised to receive a horror book, but I will give it a go.

Library

I've received book #2 in this series recently, so being a bit OCD about books, I  couldn't just read it out of order, hence the need to read book #1 first.

Freebies

Believe it or not, I've never read Claudia Gray before. This book was free as a preorder from Amazon for ages, and it was delievered on my Kindle last week. It's still FREE, grab yours if you are in UK!

This is a novella about David and Boston - characters from Ambasadora by Heidi Ruby Miller, whose book I read and loved last year. Thank you, Heidi, for notifying me that it was free.

This is it. What's in your mailbox, ladies and gents?

Complimentary music and Sunday man candy per usual...

I love this girl! She is only 15 and so very talented. This song brings me to tears every time.
As for man candy, meet gorgeous Tommy Dunn!
Does anyone think of Viggo Mortensen looking at him? Anyone?
Happy Sunday!

    I picked up Evernight this week as well - bless the Amazon freebies for expanding my reading circle!
    I'm curious to see what you think of the left Hand of God series...for me it was different form usual fantasy, but still not sure I like the characters much!

    They promised us some sunshine, and yesterday I made my balcony ready for spring. But there was no sunshine and it was just a little bit cold :S So But hopefully it get warmer in a few days.

    And your mailbox looks fantastic! Hope you would enjoy your books :D

    I LOVE BIRDY. I had her songs/covers on repeat the entire week. :) 'nuff said.

    The Peculiars' cover is sooooo pretty, right? That's what drawn me to this book, but the read isn't half that exciting. Sad. :(

    Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy your books! ^^

    Here's my IMM. ♥

    A Secret In Her Kiss looks EXCELLENT. I mean, it has a really cool concept and is not regency England, I think. I'll have to look that one up.

    Happy reading!

    Sooo jealous of EVERNIGHT - sadly it isn't available for free on Amazon Germany. :( But I hope you'll enjoy it (and of course the rest of this awesome bunch of books)!

    Have a lovely week,
    Carina

    Great mailbox, Kara. I finished Courting Darkness a couple of weeks ago and loved it! Sadly, I read the next one, Shaded Vision, this past week and it wasn't as good.

    I think I have one of those Claudia Gray novels on the shelf - but haven't gotten to it yet. I look forward to your thoughts.

    Have a great day,

    M

    I like the title "The Peculiars" and I'm a bit of a sucker for a strong title and good cover!

    Oh, and I couldn't read books out of sequence either!

    P.S. Thanks for visiting My IMM earlier! x

    Evernight is free??? Oh my gosh, Karina, you make me want to visit the UK even more than I did before! x) LOL I've heard amazing things about Claudia Gray's books too but for some reason I haven't read one either -- I really need to change that! And hellloooooooo, Tommy Dunn! ;) <3

    Amazing mailbox this week, Karina! I hope you enjoy all of the books you got! :)

    That song is so beautiful! I can see why it brings tears to your eyes. I'm definitely gonna look her up! She's awesome, so talented!

    The Peculiars looks like such a fun book! The Watchers looks really good too! I haven't read Evernight either but I have it - just need to find the time :D

    I hope you love all of your books! :)
