For Review:
Beauty Queens by Libba Bray. Words can not described how thrilled I was to get this in the mail. I adore Libba Bray's writing, and so of course, I quickly devoured this book! The review will be up in a bit, but this is a brilliant satire.
Wherever You Go by Heather Davis. This one sounds like a fantastic read, and kind of reminds me the Ghost and the Goth, which I really enjoyed. I hope I like this one just as much!
The Hole in the Wall by Lisa Rowe Fraustino. Although this isn't a recent release, I've heard amazing things about it so I'm eager to pick this one up. It seems like an awesome middle grade mystery.
Guantanamo Boy by Anna Perera. I haven't heard of this one until I received the opportunity to review it, but I feel like this is a good read outside my comfort zone.
Ultraviolet by R. J. Anderson. Do I even need to explain why I'm so pumped for this? Here's a line from the synopsis: "Once upon a time there was a girl who was special. This is not her story. Unless you count the part where I killed her."
Entire Pride and Prejudice and Zombies trilogy! So exciting! It also came with a letter from Elizabeth Bennett and three awesome posters.
Library:
Sing Me to Sleep by Angela Morrison
Wither by Lauren DeStefano
Like Mandarin by Kirsten Hubbard
Angelfire by Courtney Allison Moulton
Into the Wild Nerd Yonder by Julie Halpern
This World We Live In by Susan Beth Pfeffer

You got interesting books this week. I haven't seen some of those. The covers of the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies trilogy really creep me out lol. It deters me from getting them :P I hope you share the stories of these books!
Haha, yeah, I was a bit wary of starting that trilogy in case it was excessively violent (I am extremely squeamish, although significantly more so for movies than books). It actually wasn't that graphic, or at least for me.
Wow, great mailbox! BEAUTY QUEENS-- you're very lucky!! Like Mandarin looks good, too, and the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies books are so hilarious. Happy reading!
Can't wait to read your review of Beauty Queens! Libba Bray is one of those authors who truly doesn't fit into any type of genre "niche." I'm super curious to get my own hands on Beauty Queens!
And the line you quoted from Ultraviolet?? Whoa! Intense. Happy reading!
