In My Mailbox (March 20th-26th 2011)

A slightly slower than usual week in my mailbox but a very happy one all the same. It was a great week for YA though which is a nice change from the usual literary fiction I read a lot of.

{For Review}
Trickster's Girl by Hilari Bell (Thomas Allen & Sons)
Annexed by Sharon Dogar (Thomas Allen & Sons)
The Unnameables by Ellen Booraem (Thomas Allen & Sons)
The Vespertine by Shaundra Mitchell (Thomas Allen & Sons)
The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen (Random House Canada)

I'm looking forward to all of these books, but I was particularly excited to get The Vespertine in the mail, a finished copy which looks absolutely gorgeous, I'm a bit of a sucker for the metallic writing. I've also been reading a lot of adult historical fiction, so a young adult historical fiction novel will be a different change. Annexed is also historical fiction, which I already owned so now I definitely need to read it! The other highlight was The Running Dream, which I actually already read- it was really inspirational, so expect a review in the near future. 

How was your mailbox this week?
