In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi, The Story Siren. It's our opportunity to get a peek into what books everyone is receiving for review, borrowing from libraries, buying in bookshops and download onto eReaders.
The last time I posted an IMM was in July...so bear with me!

Ooh, In a Treacherous Court looks fantastic, as do a lot of the others! I hope that you enjoy them all!
I've been wanting to read TREASURES FROM THE ATTIC for awhile (had to return it to the library before I had a chance to read it), so I'll be interested to hear what you think of it. Enjoy all your books!
Wow, you had a great week! I see a couple of books that look good to me - Underdogs and Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M. in particular. I hope you enjoy them all.
I want to read In a Treacherous Court because I love historical fiction. I thought The Book Thief was fantastic so I am hopeful that Markus Zusak's new book will be great too.
I have The Revenant, but haven't had a chance to read it yet. Great books!
I've heard The Revenant is really good! I hope you enjoy it -- can't wait to see what you think!
Soooo many books and I haven't heard of any of them. Revenant sounds a little familiar, but I don't recognize the cover. Enjoy them all!!

AHHHHH!!! Look at the books! *drool* Paper Covers Rock looks interesting.
I checked out Sweet Money, as I had never heard of Bitter Lemon Press before -- the publisher sounds very interesting, as does the book!
