New Books This Week

I could just do the "In My Mailbox" meme and have a cool name for my weekly listing of the books I've acquired, but I'm too lazy to add the names and urls of the people who started it to this post every week. Maybe in the summer, when I'm not burned out from homework....speaking of which, school's finally winding down (I've been going non-stop since the first week of August, pretty much), and after this Wednesday I will have so much more time to read and review and blog and whatever else I feel like doing that's not schoolwork! But to the point of this post:

For Review:
The Sojourn by Andrew Krivak (LibaryThing Early Reviewers)
The Map of Time by Felix J. Palma, which also came with a copy of The Time Machine* by H.G. Wells (from publisher)
Caleb's Crossing by Geraldine Brooks (thank you, Rebecca at Penguin Books)
Have you seen the giveaway for Caleb's Crossing yet?

*One of the genres that I initially planned to review was science fiction/fantasy of Wells' vintage, so I am overjoyed that the publisher is sending promotional copies of this book with ARCs of The Map of Time. Old sci-fi/fantasy reviews to come over the summer, when I have more time for reading 19th and early 20th century prose instead of doing homework...

Won:
Enclave by Ann Aguirre (Holt InGroup)
A Thread of Sky by Deanna Fei (thanks to Lisa at Alive on the Bookshelf)
