In My Mailbox #22

 Girl Parts
For Review:
Girl Parts by John M. Cuisck

From Goodreads: "Hello, David. My name is Rose. It’s a pleasure to meet you. We are now entering minute two of our friendship. According to my Intimacy Clock, a handshake is now appropriate…"

David and Charlie are opposites. David has a million friends, online and off. Charlie is a soulful outsider, off the grid completely. But neither feels close to anybody. When David’s parents present him with a hot Companion bot to encourage healthy bonds and treat "dissociative disorder," he can’t get enough of luscious red-headed Rose — and he can’t get it soon. Companions come with strict intimacy protocols, and whenever he tries anything, David gets an electric shock. Severed from the boy she was built to love, Rose turns to Charlie, who finds he can open up, knowing Rose isn’t real. With Charlie’s help, the ideal "companion" is about to become her own best friend.
In a stunning and hilarious debut, John Cusick takes rollicking aim at internet culture and our craving for meaningful connection in an uber-connected world.

Meanicures Girl, Stolen Nightshade


I am a little later than usual on this weeks IMM, but I really wasn't expecting anything! I ended up getting these three books from book tours! Which means I have to read them all in a week. Normally that wouldn't be a big challenge, but this is an extremely busy week for me, so I am going to have to get a little creative on when and where I squeeze in some reading time!


For Review from Book Tours:
Meanicures by Catherine Clark
Girl, Stolen by April Henry
Nightshade by Andrea Cremer

Shiver (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #1)
by Maggie Stiefvater

Goodreads: For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf—her wolf—is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human ... until the cold makes him shift back again.
Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human--or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.

Just one book this week!

Kiss of Life
(Generation Dead, #2)

by Daniel Waters
May 12th 2009
From Goodreads: The phenomenon that's been sweeping the country seems to be here to stay. Not only are the teenagers who have come back from their graves still here, but newlydeads are being unearthed all the time. While scientists look for answers and politicians take their stands, the undead population of Oakville have banded together in a group they're calling the Sons of Romero, hoping to find solidarity in segregation.


Phoebe Kendall may be alive, but she feels just as lost and alone as her dead friends. Just when she reconciled herself to having feelings for a zombie -- her Homecoming date Tommy Williams -- her friend Adam is murdered taking a bullet that was meant for her. Things get even more confusing when Adam comes back from the grave. Now she has romantic interest in two dead boys; one who saved her life, and one she can't seem to live without.

ALSO! Keep an eye on the blog, I have a strong feeling that I am going to need help with an upcoming challenge for the Pretty Little Liar Secret Keeper Game!

Last week...

Since my internet was down last weekend, I wanted to make a quick mention of the books that I received last week!





And as for this week...

On Monday the good people at ABC Family sent me a box of dirt. If you've been keeping up with my blog then you know what was hidden underneath the dirt. But if you haven't, then you should check out my first post regarding this box... and check out the rest of my posts labeled "PLL" for what has happened so far in the Pretty Little Liar Secret Keeper Game!
