In My Mailbox #7

Another good week for my mailbox! Lots of great books arrived, though I haven't had much time to start reading all of them.

For review:
Wunderkind by Nikolai Grozni (Free Press Blog Tours)
All These Things I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin (Holt InGroup)
I've actually started this one; at page 75 I'm not too impressed so far, but it's a decent read.

Won from Seeing Night Reviews:
Persistence of Memory by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen
The Amaranth Enchantment by Julie Berry


Won from others:
The Daughter's Walk by Jane Kirkpatrick (thanks, Reading Teen!)

Other:
Anastasia's Secret by Susanne Dunlap
This one is from Carina over at Dystopian Desserts; she's having a fundraiser for college where you get a book in return for donating $10!

Aren't my photography skills wonderful? Not.

Most of these have already been released - has anyone read some of them and if so, were they good?

  4. Thanks, Carrie! It'll probably be a while before I get around to reading it, though. :/

    Thanks for following, Nimue!

    I've now finished All These Things I've Done, and it kind of let me down after all the great reviews. It was a good read, but that's about it.

  6. Vvb32: I haven't started Wunderkind yet, but I think it's a novel about a student at a Bulgarian school for the arts during the Soviet era.
