In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.
Through her guidelines, your post does not actually have to be named the same and thus my post shall be..."In My Shopping Bag". (just fits with the "foodie" theme a bit better in my humble opinion)
Let's take a peek inside my shopping bag from the past week....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For Review
The Secret Life of Emily Dickinson by Jerome Charyn
(courtesy of Nicole at Tribute Books)
This one will be swinging through on a book tour this February...but having already read the first chapter excerpt, looking forward to it.
Textual Healing by Eric Smith
(courtesy of the author)
First work of fiction from this blogger turned author (among other things) sets us with a male lead character in the midst of quite a few changes in his life. Snuck a peek inside the cover upon its arrival...should be interesting to see how he takes one day at a time. Anticipating at least a few laughs as well as several moments of curiosity...

I had no idea about the board game. I'm sure it's a lot of fun! :)
Great week for goodies! I liked If I Stay and My Haunted House looks like fun too. The Glee board game is very cool! Enjoy and happy reading! :)
Weee! GLEE! Fabulous things to find in your mailbox!! I am clutching on to my price raincheck for the first season of Glee for $14.99! I can't wait for it to come back in.
The Secret life of Emily Dickinson looks pretty darn interesting too!
Jenny: Agreed! Definitely caught my attention...
Melanie: ^_^ Me too! Listened to it already despite after Christmas time. Haven't tried the game yet, but just might tonight...
Wrighty: Really? Cool! Thanks for the recommendation. Curious about it, that's for sure..
Michelle: I thought you might like that one...and yes YAY for the raincheck on Glee! ~happy dance...Gleek style~ ^_^
I spy Emily's nickers! Funny cover :)
Textual Healing - What a great title.
My Haunted House reminds me of the artwork used on Coraline, don't you think so?
Juju: Yes...too funny. Wonder where they came up with the idea? *ponders*
Petty Witter: That one seems to have caught several people's attention. Great call on the cover art comparison...you're right, it does share a resemblance!
I do love the last cover, cute and familiar?
Gina - can't wait for your review of Emily - I know you'll enjoy it.
The book's Facebook page also posted a link to your "In My Shopping Bag" post at:

So glad you got some Glee - always a good thing! :)
Best wishes,
Nicole
Love the cover of If I Stay, I've been questioning whether to buy a copy myself for that reason.
Also, Glee...can't say I'm surprised. LOL Actually that Christmas album is one I got for my in-laws in fact.
