In My Mailbox (25)

This is a meme that I first heard about from Kristi over at The Story Siren and immediately wanted to jump on board.

The past week has been crazy with unpacking from the New Orleans trip and me trying to catch up on my sleep. Sorry for the lack of posts this week but I'm getting back into the swing of things and I had some ARCs and other reading materials waiting for me on my return trip, best way to come home if you ask me! What did you guys get this week? Anything I should be adding to my TBR list? I'm always looking for suggestions.

ARC Tours

Bitter Frost by Kailin Gow (Traveling ARC Tours)

All her life, Breena had always dreamed about fairies as though she lived among them...beautiful fairies living among mortals and living in Feyland. In her dreams, he was always there the breathtakingly handsome but dangerous Winter Prince, Kian, who is her intended. When Breena turns sixteen, she begins seeing fairies and other creatures mortals don t see. Her best friend Logan, suddenly acts very protective. Then she sees Kian, who seems intent on finding her and carrying her off to Feyland. That's fine and all, but for the fact that humans rarely survive a trip to Feyland, a kiss from a fairy generally means death to the human unless that human has fairy blood in them or is very strong, and although Kian seemed to be her intended, he seems to hate her and wants her dead.

StarCrossed (Thief Errant #1) by Elizabeth C. Bunce (thanks to YA Books Central)

Digger thrives as a spy and sneak-thief among the feuding religious factions of Gerse, dodging the Greenmen who have banned all magic. But when a routine job goes horribly wrong and her partner and lover Tegen is killed, she has to get out of the city, fast, and hides herself in a merry group of nobles to do so. Accepted as a lady's maid to shy young Merista Nemair, Digger finds new peace and friendship at the Nemair stronghold--as well as plenty of jewels for the taking. But after the devious Lord Daul catches her in the act of thievery, he blackmails her into becoming his personal spy in the castle, and Digger soon realizes that her noble hosts aren't as apolitical as she thought... that indeed, she may be at the heart of a magical rebellion.
