Hey guys!
I know I have plenty of books right now, but guess what? I just a few more... well a lot by some standards.
In My Mailbox is hosted by the wonderful Kristi at The Story Siren.
So my first set of books that came, all separate, but on the same day:
Hate List by Jennifer Brown - sent to me by Little Brown from ALA (they ran out)Skinwalker by Faith Hunter - won at Lisa Mantchev's tweetsulk
Airhead by Meg Cabot - won from Black Eyed Susan's Blog
This next set, I'm really excited about as well! So three packages was like "wow" and then I got two more the following day (Friday).
The Kindling of Greenfyr by Mark Freeman (1 ARC Tour)The Prophecy of Sisters by Michelle Zink - won from Shayla at The Book Explorer
Then, I was at my parents today for their 25th wedding anniversary party and I had two MORE packages!
Dancing with Ana by Nicole Barker (sent by author for review)The Railway Children by F. Nesbit - won from Harmony Book Reviews
To say the least, I really shouldn't have bought books two days ago.
Now why did I buy books?
I had my last day at work on Thursday. And as a going away present, I got two things:
Chatty Cathie, who I worked with, gave me a cute set of blue owl earrings, perfect my new elementary library job. Here's some pictures... click to get a bigger view!

And then... they got me a fun card with... a $20 Borders giftcard. You'll see next week what I bought with it! :)
I'm going to miss those guys. And do not fret! Chatty Cathie and I have arranged for some more jewelry prizes for my contests. She makes the cutest stuff!
