IMM (#24)

In My Mailbox is a meme created and hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren with inspiration from Alea at Pop Culture Junkie. All book titles link to further info at Goodreads.  All books in this IMM post have been received for review/bought/gifted/loaned/sent by UK Book Tours/acquired through nefarious means.

Entice
Carrie Jones
Bloomsbury 2010
I actually got this last week but totally forgot to include it in the previous IMM post.  I'm fairly ambivalent about this series.  I adored the first book but really detested the second - book three has it all to play for so fingers crossed it's a return to book one form.

Tender Morsels
Margo Lanagan
David Fickling Books 2009
I have had this on my wish list forever and was ever so pleased when the lovely Emma, of Asamum Booktopia gave me her copy.  It looks sinister, frightening and intricate - like all good fairytales should be.

Jonas (The Beautiful Dead, book one)
Eden Maguire
Hodder Children's Books 2009 
On loan from the same lovely Emma, this is a series that I have been meaning to have a look at.  Other than Emma's hearty recommendation, I know little about it but expect that it will be jolly good if she likes it so much.

Heavenly, Penitence, Absolution
Jennifer Laurens
Grove Creek Publishing 2009/2010
Another series that I've been wanting to read for a while and yet more lovely loans from Emma - from her own, personal, permanent and very loved collection (I shall not be reading these in the bath, then).  They look great, Jen Laurens seems like a great gal and I'm looking forward to getting stuck in.

Vampire Academy - books 1-5
Richelle Mead
Puffin 
Because I have so much spare time (HA!) I somehow found myself agreeing to read and review the entire Vampire Academy series (including book six, to arrive later in the month, confidentiality agreement included) by the first week in December. Yep. I am not quite sure why I thought that was a good idea except that these books look great and have been on my radar for a while without me ever getting round to reading them. Looks like I'll be reading them now, folks...


So that's it for this week.  I have absolutely no idea how I'm going to get through them all but there are, after all, 24 usable hours in every day and things will slow down after my essay deadline passes.  Ho hum.  Hope everyone got lovely titles this week and that you all have more time on your hands to read them than I do x
