In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren to let bloggers share books they've got in a week.
First week of second semester at uni has gone by! As expected, I'm busy as hell, and when I get home, I'm too tired to read any more than 20 pages. My reading progress is really suffering.
First week of second semester at uni has gone by! As expected, I'm busy as hell, and when I get home, I'm too tired to read any more than 20 pages. My reading progress is really suffering.
This week I borrowed a whole lot of books.
Borrowed from libraries:
Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak 
The Whole Story of Half a Girl by Veera Hiranandani
All the galleys have to wait until I get my Kindle. Not long now. About 10 to go.
Alright, back to homework. u___u
Everything is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer
Just Listen by Sarah Dessen
The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
The Brief History of the Dead by Kevin Brockmeier
Veronika Decides to Die by Paulo Coelho
Borrowed from friends:
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
Dear John by Nicholas Sparks
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger (currently reading)
I also bought only one book out of need this week (yay!). It looks like I can control myself now. I've wanted to read Before I Fall! And I also bought another book because I had to. It's assigned in English class. I have a feeling I'm going to hate it. Has anyone ever read it, Just in Case?
And then I also got a whole lot of galleys on Netgalley. All of these are from Random House Children's (thank you!).

You seem exactly like my kind of girl. I love your earlier book titles: Hugo Cabret, Book Thief (which I have on my shelf but haven't read yet), Where the Wild Things Are, and of course the classic Catcher in the Rye - nice selections! :)
