Mailbox Monday - November 30th



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.



Kissing Games of the World by Sandi Khan Shelton, publisher

If there’s one point that Jamie McClintock and Nate Goddard can agree upon, it’s that love is overrated. Jamie doesn’t have time for it. Nate doesn’t need it. And they certainly don’t want it from each other.







It's in the eyes by Charles Toftoy, from the publisher

I will use this one in a new feature I will introduce soon enough :)
It's spring in Washington, DC - a beautiful time of year in the nation's capital, yet its citizens are uneasy. This time the enemy is a psychopathic killer responsible for the deaths of four local university co-eds - raping and murdering them using rituals practiced by the Thuggees, killers for the Goddess Kali



Oh the coolest thing ever, the library had this book changing table, so I could not resist a n almost new copy of BD even if I don't like Meyer's language. But this was my fav cos it's so freaky. And perhaps I can bf to read some cos of that "alien" scene.






The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory, yes I will finally read a Gregory book, and a buddy really likes this cos of some licking scene, lol.

After reading Wolf Hall I really wanted to read about Mary B so yay.

And of course you know I have read Breaking Dawn already, but I am going to re-read Eclipse (you know.. to get ready for the movie... yea... in June! Ha). And as far as It's in the eyes... looks like a very interesting book... I will be looking forward to see what you have to say about that one! And... Kissing Games of the World... well, I am definitely going to check this one out... Two people... who do not want to fall in love with each other, lol!! Great mailbox honey!!!

  19. Hi Blodeuedd,

    I wonder what the licking scene is in The Other Boleyn Girl? Is it a sexual scene? :P

    Enjoy your books!

    ReplyDelete
  20. As a from the DC area I would be interested in reading Its in the Eyes. Hope it is as good as it sounds!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Amy,
    It was something about a tear and a guy licking it or something. She did go on and on about it, I sure must read to find out ;)

    DC,
    We'll see, we'll see :)

  22. I liked the The Other Boleyn Girl movie. I just recently found the book from Lähetystori (paid only 3.5€). Waiting for your review... :)

    ReplyDelete
  23. I have read Kissing Games, it's good. I'm so excited that you are reading The Other Boleyn Girl as your first Gregory novel. It's SO much better than and the movie (and includes all of the children born, the movie excludes one or two).

    Enjoy!

    ReplyDelete
  24. It's in the Eyes has a freaky, creepy cover. LOL

    I'm looking forward to your thoughts on Breaking Dawn.

  25. Maija,
    Hey where did the P go? :)
    I haven't seen the movie, I always thought about reading the book first so I am glad I did not give in.

    Mari,
    I am glad to hear it is better than the movie, that is often the case. I think I picked a good one, and I do like her from what I have read.

    I know, very very creepy, but it sounds like a creepy book too

    ReplyDelete
  27. Nice loot hon! And I will tell you a secret: BF read the whole twilight series cuz I said he should.LOL OMG he will kill me if he finds out I told someone. *evil grin*

    ReplyDelete
  28. Thanks Serena :)

    Susi,
    Haha, bf would never do that, but I can bribe him with that freaky scene and I shall. He is just not a reader, maybe a good thing in a way

  29. Blodeuedd, I got married 14.11., that's why a new surname starting with an A ;) We've been together over 9 years, engaged almost 9 years and finally noticed we might never have the time or energy to organize the longwaited big family wedding (always too busy, or too something...). So we got ourselves married in secret - only parents and bestman were present :) We organized it in two weeks - so only two weeks of stress. Very happy about that decision!

    I don't know whether other people will love the movie. I just tend to like everything I watch, so... :)

  30. Great mailbox. I hope you like The Other Boleyn Girl. I sure did!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Maija,
    Congrats!!! :D
    A private wedding must have been nice, organizing and stress can surely be too much I guess sometimes. And you had the most important people near.
    I hope you will be very happy, but I am sure you will since you have known each other so long

  32. Dar,
    I sure hope, at least now my friend can stop telling me to read it lol

    ReplyDelete

Thank you for your lovely comment. I appreciate and love them all :D

I answer them all here.

Update: I have switched to embedded comments, so please let me know if you can't comment

(and do tell if evil word verification shows up as I switched to new blogger)
