What Was In Our Mailbox:

This was the week of multiples!

First thing that came was 2 hardcover copies of:
Ten Things We Did (and probably shouldn't have) by Sarah Mlynowski.
We got this from HarperCollins (thank you!) as part of an upcoming Blog Tour hosted by The (Teen) Book Scene 1 if not both of these copies will be part of a giveaway when we do the review in August.

Next to arrive was 3 Hardcover copies of:
Jane Was Here by Oscar Winner Sarah Kernochan
sent by way of Grey Swan Press (thank you!). Sarah wrote the story that the movie What Lies Beneath starring Harrison Ford was based on and actually wrote the screen play and directed All I Wanna Do staring Kirsten Dunst, as wel as other achievements.

2 if not all 3 copies of Jane Was Here will be used as a give away when we review the book, also sometime in August. If Sarah’s books are as suspenseful and entertaining as her movies, I am in for a real treat and so are you!

I won a copy of Loved Book 2 in the Vampire Journal series by Morgan Rice – Autographed! Cool!!! I’m really excited about this one.

The Amazing Angeline Kace, who we will be doing a Blog Tour for in the near future, sent me some amazing book marks with some amazing looking guys on them! There are 8 in total and are all signed, depending on which side you look at – is which guy you get…hehe – NICE! Sorry for the not so great photo! I do plan to do another epic movie trivia via Twitter in the future for these so watch @myshelfandi for announcements!

Also this week I bought several books to give some lucky folks participating in RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) a fun way to meet new people and get some great gifts! And signing up is FREE!
