MAILBOX MONDAY!

Mailbox Monday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Marcia over at The Printed Page. 

Since I missed the last few Mondays, I have a few to blab about!!  WOOT! 

Here they are in all their georgous bookiness:

(WOAH!  Has this ever happened to you?  You are literally typing your post for Mailbox Monday and the doorbell rings... Fed Ex delivering another book!!!  I am soooo happyyy!!!)

The following books were sent to me by Michelle  and Anneliese from SIMON AND SCHUSTER CANADA... THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!  I will say, once again, that Simon and Schuster Canada are very good to me, and I am honoured and blessed that they send me books for review. 

• It's Not Summer Without You by Jenny Han  YA available in April
• Claire De Lune by Christine Johnson  YA Available May 18th
• Shade by Jeri Smith-Ready  YA available May 18th
• She's So Dead to Us by Kieran Scott   YA Available May 25th
• The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton
• Eternal on the Water by Joseph Monninger (I started this last Thurs and am LOOOVING it!)
• A book that I have been told to keep strictly under wraps until closer to the publication date, which is sometime in May.  The only thing I will say is that it is YA and looks AMAZING!  So, watch for it!  I'll label the post "Mystery YA novel Revealed!"

Last week, I recieved a VERY exciting email asking me if I would like to review a new book.  It is exciting because the email was from PENGUIN PUBLISHING!   I had applied to review for them a few months ago and was just so thrilled and honoured to now be on their roster of bloggers that they send out ARC's too.  THANK YOU PENGUIN! 

The book that was sent to me and arrived literally a moment ago is:

MISTRESS OF ROME by Kate Quinn   Available April 6th 2010. 
THANK YOU, KAITLYN!

I suddenly have A LOT of review books to read, as I have some from awhile ago that I am still working my way through... ACK!   I have now placed the stack in priority of A) books that I've had for awhile and have not yet reviewed, B) books with an imminent release date C) and books with a release date in May.  So, I am not doing much recreational reading at the moment!  But I must say that so far the books FEEL very much like recreation as I am really liking them or loving them.

What's in YOUR mailbox this week?
