Mailbox Monday


What arrived in YOUR mailbox this week? Visit Marcia at The Printed Page to leave a link to your post and see what other readers acquired!


This was a YA and e-book week.

Violet on the Runway by Melissa Walker.

I won it from Read this Book

Violet Greenfield's life changes forever when a woman tells her she could be IT, the next Kate Moss-but taller, and without the PR problems. That's how Violet winds up with a business card in the front pocket of her jeans on her first day as a senior in high school. Tall, skinny Violet, who's been P-L-A-I-N practically forever.




This e-book, Mirage by Monica Burns, I won over at Samhellions spring fling week. Go and check out their free short stories.

An ancient prophecy. A sheikh’s passion. One woman will ignite the flame that fulfills them both.






Invisible by Kimberly Chin, an e-book which she was nice enough to send me to read.

Antique collector Hagen Rayner has fourteen business days to find the deed to his Great-Uncle-s house or he risks losing the estate to his devious cousin. Should be easy enough for the self-made billionaire to accomplish, except for one small detail, his only source of help is to be from a woman who doesn't exist.





Extreme Kissing by Luisa Playa

I won this cute YA book over at Amanda Ashbys blog

Carlota and Bethany are best friends. Bethany is the sensible one with a long-term boyfriend, Carlota is the crazy one with a wild past and rebellious nature. All is fine in their world - apart from Carlota hating her stepdad and longing for a old flame. And apart from Bethany thinking her boyfriend is about to dump her and that her period is late...

  17. I'm not a huge fan of YA, but Violet on the Runway looks good. I was plain in high school (I am very girl-next-door) so this would have been a great fantasy for me to have imagined.

  18. I've heard the Violet books are really good. I've thought of reading them myself so I'd be curious to see what you'll think of it. Happy Reading.

  19. Rebecca,
    I recently discovered YA books again, perhaps since I never read them in English and that is so fun now.
    Violet does look good, it's supposed to be really good too.

    Dar,
    Hopefully I can start it soon enough :) have to work through my pile

  25. That first novel looks pretty good. I could see myself reading that one. Great cover too.

    I don't really read young adult novels anymore, but all these new novels popping up everywhere is making me reconsider.

    Happy reading!

    they do seem interesting with a strong heroine, and the author has written the sweetest thing in the book.
