**Thanks to The Story Siren for hosting IMM**
In My Mailbox is a weekly meme that spotlights the new books you received for review, swapped, or bought! I got a few really good books this week! My TBR stack is absolutely ridiculous... but still I BUY MORE!!!! It is sickness people- I do not think I can be cured, so I just GO WITH IT!!! :D
I also decided to post book descriptions since I only received a few books this week!
Bought:
The Pace
Written by Shelena Shorts
Released August 19, 2009
Published by Lands Atlantic Publishing, LLC
Summary from Goodreads:
"Weston Wilson is not immortal and he is of this world. But, aging is not part of his existence, and eighteen-year-old Sophie Slone is determined to find out why. In doing so, she could also uncover something about her own life expectancy that she may not want to know. Suddenly, immortality will mean everything and nothing all at the same time.
Intensely fascinating and rich with determination, The Pace brings together romance, mystery, and suspense in a compelling bond that is sure to have readers asking for more."
The Iron King (Iron Fey #1)
Written by Julie Kagawa
Release Date: February 1, 2010 (out early in some places!)
Published by Harlequin Teen
Summary from Goodreads: "Meghan Chase has never fit in at her small-town high school, and now, on the eve of her 16th birthday, she discovers why. When her half brother is kidnapped, Meghan is drawn into a fantastical world she never imagined--the world of Faery, where anything you see may try to eat you, and Meghan is the daughter of the summer faery king. Now she will journey into the depths of Faery to face an unknown enemy . . . and beg the help of a winter prince who might as soon kill her as let her touch his icy heart. The Iron King is the first book in the Iron Fey series."
Goodreads Swap:
Numbers (arc)
Written by Rachel Ward
Release Date: February 1, 2010
Published by Chicken House/Scholastic Inc. (first published January 5th, 2009)
Summary from Goodreads: "Whenever Jem meets someone new, no matter who, as soon as she looks into their eyes, a number pops into her head. That number is a date: the date they will die.
Burdened with such an awful awareness, Jem avoids relationships. Until she meets Spider, another outsider, and takes a chance. But while they’re waiting to ride the Eye Ferris
wheel, Jem notices that all the other tourists in line flash the same number. Today’s number. Today’s date. Terrorists are going to attack London. Jem’s world is about to explode!"
