In My Mailbox (27) - Very First IMM Vlog!

Hello everyone!

Welcome to my twenty-seventh post of In My Mailbox, hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren inspired by Alea. For those of you who are not familiar with In My Mailbox, it is a showcase of the books you have received for review, have purchased, or have picked up at the library during the week.

After having absolutely no mail for 3 whole weeks because of the Canada Post lockout, 
I received a ton of packages during this last week once mail resumed.  


After looking at the piles of books I got, I finally got the courage to make an In My Mailbox Vlog!
Here is what I got during the past week!






*I'm really sorry that it was so long, but I promise to make it a lot shorter next week!*
Let me know what you think!

  1. I love Strange Angel, I have all the rest of the books and I can't wait to read them. I am like you I like to read series when they are all done, I hate having to wait years for the whole series to be done with.
    I am really enjoying the Women of Otherworld so far, I finished book 2 and will be starting book 3 in a book or 2.

    Happy Reading

  4. O-M-G super cute Lucy. Its so nice to put a face to the blogger I will be meeting in a few weeks. :)

    okay the chapters/indigo downtown have way better YA bargain books then here. I will have to check to see if I can get the ones you bought. I have been looking at Melissa's books for awhile as well as the Melody Carlson books but didn't want to pay full price.

    Zombie Blondes sounds good as well.

    I have Lili St Crows 3 books sitting waiting to be finished in the series so that I can read it too.

    Happy reading :)

  9. @Kristina, I really look forward to reading Strange Angels, I would love to actually buy the Omnibus of all 5 books soon! :D Exactly why I wait usually before reading everything, I like that I have all the books so it will be really easy to just start on the next novel once I'm done with the first. I am so glad to hear that you are liking my favorite series!! *SQUEE!*

    @logos, you will definitely see more! Thank you for stopping by sweetie<3

    @Tynga, thank you darling!!! I can't wait to give you all your gifts AT LAST!!! hehe :) I have more little goodies for you *whistles innocently* hehe :).*HUGS!*<3

    @Cindy, Thank you so much for taking the time to watch my whole vlog!! I know it was long! I can't wait to meet up later on during the month! Just a few more weeks YAY!!! :D I will probably wait to get the rest of the books or the omnibus of Strange angels before reading the series haha :). I hope you enjoy all the bargain books you got!! :D<3

    @Steph, Thank you for stopping by! I don't think I could have resisted the sale! It would have literally taken a few people to drag me out of there before I could put down the books LOL! Thank you so much! More vlogs to come!

    @Maria Thank you sweetie! I really need to get Blue Bloods soon! Oh and I need to buy Sirensong when it comes out, I think it already has haha! Thank you for stopping by!

    @Stalking the Bookshelves, Oh I don't know if I could have lasted another week with no mail. It was absolute TORTURE! I can't wait to hear your thoughts for Heavenly! I really hope to read it soon! Thank you sweetie! Take care!!!

    @Kristin, Thank you hon!!!
