In My Mailbox - Post-London Edition

It's time for In My Mailbox, a weekly meme by The Story Siren!

So, you know I went to London this week, and erm, I went a little crazy on the buying books thing. All of the Book Fair attendees got a 10% discount at a bookstore called Foyles (I never heard of it before) and of course I went to my favourite Piccadilly Circus store: Waterstones! I also got two freebies at the Fair itself.

Click on the cover to go to the Goodreads page.


Overview:

The Freebies:


I have no idea what these books are about, but they had little signs saying "Please take one!" so just to be polite, I took one of each

Bought:







I'm so excited to read all of them! The Name of the Star is signed, and the Charlaine Harris box looks absolutely gorgeous <3. What do you have in your mailbox this week? Leave a comment! (:

Wow, how gorgeous is the boxed Sookie Stackhouse set?! I love the colors:) I can't wait to read Fever, I loved Wither, and I still need to read Clockwork Prince as well! I have no idea why I haven't bought a copy yet, there's clearly something wrong with me. YAY AWESOME BOOKS!

Mine were too, that's why I sold my old copies. I was sooo happy when I found this box set! It looks absolutely awesome on my shelf

Celine said...

Thanks Kelsey! The Sookie books are pretty great, I'm very much enjoying rereading them (:

Celine said...

I did ^^ Thanks Donna!

Celine said...

I know right! I absolutely love the box set, it looks amazing with all those colours! And the latest book has a yellow cover, so it will fit right in (: Hehe, it took me quite a while to by Clockwork Prince too. I hope it lives up to the hype ^^ Happy dance for awesome books!

ANOTHER book binge! Love it! I have a different box set of the Sookie books with the tie-in covers *gag* but that was all they had at the time (much prefer the US covers.. rare I say that), glad they have new covers now! I actually have that kind of cover for book 11 and US for 10 but yeah. Yay! 
Love the UK cover for Wither!! :o

Celine said...

I'm very much looking forward to read Matched, I hope it's as awesome as everyone tells me ^^

Celine said...

It really is! When I saw that cover and that the story was about Jack the Ripper I knew I had to have it (:

Ashley Evans said...

Wow what an amazing selection of books this week!  I hope you have room on your bookshelf :D

Celine said...

Haha, to be very honest with you I don't xD I have no idea where to leave them, I'm currently doublestacking my shelves. Thanks for stopping Ashley (:

Celine said...

Ugh, I hate the TV covers.. The series is quite fun, but I don't want the actors on my book. I had the very old covers for the first 4 books, but because I couldn't find covers to match I sold them. I was super happy when I saw this box, it looks so great! And I love the Wither cover too (:

Hannah said...

Exactly. One day I will replace them with the US covers. :3

It's crazy how different the cover for Delirium is in this edition compared to the US one! I hope you love all the books you got this week, looks like you'll be a very busy reader! ;)

Oh my gosh I'm in love with all of your books!  I LOVE the Sookie Stackhouse series!  Do you watch True Blood?  I love the show, but like the books better!

Celine said...

Oh me too! I'm currently rereading them and I'm sooo happy to own these books again. I sold my mismatched pair, and I've missed the books quite a bit

Celine said...

Hehe, thanks Megan! And thanks for the follow <3. I've watched the series when they were still shooting season 2, but I kind of lost track of it after a while.. I enjoyed it though, I should watch it soon :D

Celine said...

It's very different, although I kind of like the US cover better. Or maybe I'm just very used to seeing the US one (:

Hehe, I'll be very busy for a very long time to get through all of my books. Thanks for stopping by!

Pragya said...

So the D-Day was here. Love your haul. I have read The name of the star, it's ok. I didn't like Wither though others have loved it. Still to read all the others. Yay for more books!

Angelya said...

Fantastic collection! It was great to see your pics too, looks like you had a great time :) I hope you enjoy reading them!
