It's Monday! What Are You Reading? & Mailbox Monday

 

Hosted by Sheila at Book Journey.  We share books that we've read over the past week and those we hope to read this week.  

Last Week:
I tried to play catch-up with all of my library books (it always seems that when my holds come through they all come at once)!  So, I read:

This Week:
I want to finish up with my library reads and get to reading my overflowing shelf of ARCs that I've long neglected! Aaaand...since I'm participating in Once Upon a Read-a-thon this week I think my reading goals are completely do-able.


Mailbox Monday is a touring meme where book bloggers share their bookish acquisitions from the week prior.  It is hosted this month by A Sea of Books.

This week I received a slew of ARCs (again, when it rains, it pours)!

From NetGalley:

The Legacy by Katherine Webb


The Magician King by Lev Grossman (super excited about this one since I really enjoyed the first book in this series)


The Last Letter From Your Lover by Jojo Moyes


From publishers:

The Map of Time by Felix J. Palma...courtesy of Simon & Schuster's Atria imprint (hardcover, not an ARC)

(don't you just love the cover??)
Before Ever After by Samantha Sotto...courtesy of Crown Publishing

    I have had A Language of Flowers on my TBR list for a while, it looks like a great book. The Last Letter from your Lover also looks good.

    I recently finished Turn of Mind and still need to write a review for it. I'm curious to see what you think!

    Great mailbox! I didn't realize that the sequel to The Magicians was out. I'll definitely be adding that one to my list. Before Ever After also looks really good.

    Enjoy.

    Good luck on the read-a-thon! I need a week long one so I can catch up! I received before Ever After also. I love the cover. The Legacy sounds good. I'll have to look into that one!
