In My Mailbox: 11/6/2011

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren that lets book bloggers and book lovers get a peek at some of the goodies that are floating around out there.
The book buying ban I mentioned in last weeks IMM continues this week. So far, it’s been pretty successful but I did stray from the ban a little bit due to an author signing at the library yesterday. Being that the authors are tied to the community, I really couldn’t resist. At least I managed to keep to the ban as well as I could, with only one purchase. I’ll share more about the event in a few days. I hope the pics turned out.
I’m having a super-sized fan-girl moment because one of the books I received is from the most amazing author ever…Jordan Dane. (Sighs) She is too awesome for words. If you haven’t read In The Arms Of Stone Angels then shame on you because it is so good.
Here’s what I found in my mailbox this week.
