Book Chick City: In My Mailbox (#10)

In My Mailbox (#10)

Sunday, September 27, 2009 | Posted by Book Chick City |

In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.

I am very happy with my books this week. I bought two and received three for review. I think as of next week I will also post a summary of the book as well.

For Review:

• Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger (Scribner - sent by Regal Literary). I was so happy when I received an email asking me if I would like to review Her Fearful Symmetry, my answer: Hell Yeah!!

• Silent Killer by Beverly Barton (sent by Avon). When I read the press release the publicist send with their email, I thought it sounded really good. I love crime/thriller novels.

• Warrior of the West by M. K. Hume (sent by Headline Review). This sounds like a really great fantasy, looking forward to reading this one.

Bought:

• Drood by Dan Simmons. I've had my eye on this for a while. It sounds so great; very atmospheric and interesting.

• Passion by Louise Bagshawe. I love books by this author, yes they are a bit trashy but just so much fun to read, especially when on holiday!

So, what books did you get this week?
