In My Mailbox (61)

In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren and is where we share with everyone all the books we got through the week.  
I was going to make a vlog but we spent most of the day at the nursery buying plants and now I'm too tired to take the time.  But I did get a few good ones!

For Review:
Flawless Ruins by Kieryn Nicolas
Thank you Kieryn!
This is a dystopia that comes out in June.  Because I think it's one that not many know of I'm including the description.
In 2238, life in America is finally perfect. The Wars are over and the CommWall is in place, blocking communication with what remains of other continents. The women are content to have great education, choice careers, and glamorous hair. Best of all, when every girl turns seventeen she’s given her Like; an adorable, perfect spouse tailor-made just for her. 
Everyone looks forward to the day she gets her Like, and Morgan Waters is no exception—until she accidentally stays out past curfew and stumbles across someone who appears to be a Like but claims to be a man. Morgan’s perfect world crumbles down around her in the midst of a forbidden romance, forcing her to deal with the realization that her life may not be so flawless after all.

Purchased:
Timeless by Alexandra Monir
I've been wanting this one since it came out!  I'm SO excited to finally have it!
Timeless

Household Gods by Judith Tarr and Harry Turtledove
This is actually a book I read a few years ago and LOVED LOVED LOVED it!  Since it's My Favorite Things right now I thought it was a good time to pick up some of my favorite books that I don't own.  I'm actually hoping I can reread this sometime soon'ish.

Gift:
The Dark City #1 (Relic Master) by Catherine Fisher
Nikki from Wicked Awesome Books is amazing and sent me an ARC of this because she knew how much I was wanting it.  Huge (((hugs))) to her!  I'm so excited to read it!  I LOVED Incarceron and Sapphique.
The Dark City #1 (Relic Master)

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog! I hope you'll take the time to leave a comment. I try to reply to comments on here and/or through email (if you have it set so you can get replied to by email) but I'm not ALWAYS able to.

I do not accept awards because I do not have the time to repost. I thank you for considering me and your comments are the best award I could get!
