In My Mailbox #27

Thanks to Kristi at The Story Siren for holding this meme every week.


I love seeing what everybody else got in their mailboxes. 

          All links go to Goodreads, where you can add the books to your wishlist if you like the look of  them.

I received a gorgeous parcel from Egmont this week.  See how pretty it is!  It included two books, lipgloss, a lei and some chocolate (not pictured as I've already eaten it!). 


Kisses for Lula by Samantha Mackintosh
(This is the first book in the series and is described as appealing to Meg Cabot fans, so I think I'm going to like it!)

Lula does the Hula by Samantha Mackintosh
(The second book in the series sounds like a fun summer read)

I got two books via swaps this week:


Leaving Paradise by Simone Elkeles
(I haven't actually read anything by Simone Elkeles yet but I've heard good things about her books so I was really pleased to get this one in a swap)

Dreaming Anastasia by Joy Preble
(Such a pretty cover!)

I also bought a couple of books:


Red Riding Hood by Sarah Blakley-Cartwright
(Loved the film so hope I'm going to enjoy the book)

Birthmarked by Caragh O'Brien
(This one caught my eye when I was browsing the shelves in Waterstones.  The plot sounds interesting and I think it's the first in a trilogy)
