In My Mailbox 11/15/2009

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren. Stop by and check it out, and share your own finds!

This week has been a little less crazy for me. I didn't acquire a ton of books (in fact, I don't think any new books came in for me), but I did order some and should get them soon (thanks BetterWorld). Sometime soon I will be receiving:


Bar Code Rebellion by Suzanne Weyn
The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare
Shade's Children by Garth Nix
Dealing With Dragons by Patricia C. Wrede
Blue Sword by Robin McKinley
Among the Betrayed by Margaret Peterson Haddix
Among the Impostors by Margaret Peterson Haddix
The Wolves of Willoughby Chase by Joan Aiken, Pat Marriott


What did come in wasn't for me: I finally got the five Judy Blume books I had ordered for my neighbor's birthday. This was a relief, because we thought they'd been stolen, and I was pretty pissed.

So, for her birthday, my neighbor got:
Freckle Juice
Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great
Starring Sally J. Freedman as Herself
Superfudge
Deenie

She was very pleased, and you know I love encouraging reading.


So, I personally didn't get any books this week. But I did get two new book rats, Shirley and Mama Warbucks. Shirley (to go with Laverne, whom we already had) is a dumbo rat, Mama is hairless.
Pictures coming soon, I promise

  1. Good books on the way though :) I think Sally J Friedman was my favorite Blume book when i was a kid. Dealing with Dragons has been sitting on my shelf for a while now; need to read that soon. Happy (future) reading :)
