Weekly Feature & In My Mailbox #71

Happy Sunday! Thank you to everyone who joined our chat with Cassie on Thursday night. We had a HUGE turn out and it was wonderful chatting with everyone and talking spoilers. We are hoping to do this again with Cassie.

This past week Sophie and I have both read a few really good books and we're currently reading a few we're looking forward to sharing our reviews on. I don't have our review schedule in front of me, I apologize I'm being lazy, but we do have some great reviews we'll be posting this week.

We're also taking part in two blog tours, one is for the iClue promotion which will be up on Wednesday and Jennifer Murgia's Leminscate which will be up on Friday.

In My Mailbox is a meme started by Kristy at the Story Siren, and allows bloggers to share what they received this last week to review, what they bought, won or received as a gift.

My highlight of the week was receiving this beautiful gift from Sophie, who attended two of Cassie and Holly's signings in CA. She not only surprised me with a copy of COFA, the B&N signed limited edition copy w/ Jace's letter, but she got it personally signed to me from Cassie. *hugs book tightly* and she sent these little goodies with it.

The Clockwork Prince and Black Heart are teasers from the first chapter and the cool about this little booklet is one site is CP and the next side BlackHeart. No, those Beastly pens didn't come from the signing... they're a little gag gift. I did get her back for those. LOL

For Review-
* This Dark Endeavor, The Apprenticeship of Victor Frankenstein by Kenneth Oppel, published by Simon & Schuster, to be released on 8/23/2011. *this book has also ready been optioned for film*
* The Beginning of After by Jennifer Castle, published by Harper Teen, to be released on 9/6/11

Bought-
* Born at Midnight by C.C. Hunter

Thank you to Sophie, Simon & Schuster and Harper Teen for this weeks wonderful reads.
What goodies did you receive this week?

  13. Book Addictions by Christina - If you check Cassie's Appearances page on her blog and call one of the stores where she had signings, chances are, they may have signed stock. Books Inc. and Kepler's both had her sign some extras for the store.
