In My Mailbox (12)

In My Mailbox was started by Kristi over at The Story Siren! In My Mailbox is a way to share the books you received each week.

This week I got:


Poison Study
Maria V. Snyder
From the Harlequin Teen Panel
Choose: A quick death and hell or slow poison and hell.
About to be executed for murder, Yelena is offered an extraordinary reprieve. She'll eat the best meals, have rooms in the palace and risk assassination by anyone trying to kill the Commander of Ixia.
And so Yelena chooses to become a food taster. But the chief of security, leaving nothing to chance, deliberately feeds her Butterfly's Dust and only by appearing for her daily antidote will she delay an agonizing death from the poison.
As Yelena tries to escape her new dilemma, disasters keep mounting. Rebels plot to seize Ixia and Yelena develops magical powers she can't control. Her life is threatened again and choices must be made. But this time the outcomes aren't so clear.
I cannot wait to read this one!


The Miles Between
Mary E Pearson
From a contest at Mrs. Magoo Reads
Destiny Faraday makes a point of keeping her distance from her classmates at Hedgebrook Academy. Her number-one rule: Don’t get attached. But one day, unexpectedly finding a car at their disposal, Destiny and three of her classmates embark on an unauthorized road trip.

They’re searching for one fair day—a day where the good guy wins and everything adds up to something just and right. Their destination: Langdon, a town that Destiny’s unsuspecting companions hope will hold simply a day of fun. But, as Destiny says, “Things are not always what they seem.” Only she knows that Langdon holds far more than that—a deep secret she has never shared with anyone.

The Miles Between explores the wonder andmagic of a very real world where chance, mystery, and secrets abound.

Bookmooch:
It's Not You, It's Me - Kerry Cohen Hoffmann
Devil's Kiss - Sarwat Chadda
Dead Until Dark - Charlaine Harris
Better Latte Than Never - Catherine Clark
Glass Houses - Rachel Caine


Also, I'd like to point out this link: http://www.onlinecollege.org/2009/09/15/100-best-blogs-for-book-reviews/ - I was so shocked the the other day when I had an email saying The Book Cellar was included in their 100 Best Blogs for Book Reviews list!! I thought I'd share the link, there's so many great blogs I found on the list I had never heard of!

What'd you guys get?
