In My Mailbox (3)

This week I actually got some books! I went to Indigo in search of two books. Unfortunately, only one of them was in stock. Fortunately, I found some other goodies.

So I didn't find Crazy Beautiful. I guess I'll have to try again (I really want to read that one!). But I did find the other book I was looking for: Savvy by Ingrid Law. I just love the cover. It reminds me of a van Gogh painting... but not quite.

Then, since I was in the middle-grade section, I had a little browse. I found a book of short stories by Gail Carson Levine called The Fairy's Return. Since I enjoyed the author's other books (Ella Enchanted, The Two Princesses of Bamarre, and Fairest), I thought I might give this one a try. I'm not usually a fan of short stories, but I felt like I needed something short and easy to handle.

And then I spied something really cool: bargain-priced books. I always like a bargain. I hadn't heard of most of them. But in amongst the rather lame-sounding titles was one I had heard of: The Looking Glass Wars. And in hardcover for only $5.99! So I had to add that to my pile.

What was in your "mailbox" this week?
