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)
Normally seen on a Sunday or Monday, this week's was pushed back due to the fabulous blog guests we had visiting (don't believe me....just check the posts!)...but better late than never.
Got your wish lists ready?
Here's a peek inside my shopping bag from the past two weeks...

Review
The Catastrophic History of You & Me by Jess Rothenberg
(ARC courtesy of LibraryThing Early Reviewers)
Interesting cover, right? The story sounds like it may have strands of a few other YA books of late with the main characters passing away and all...but the rest? Sounds unique to me. For more information on this one, seek out Dial Books. Scheduled release, January 2012.
The Orphan of Awkward Falls by Keith Graves
(Review copy courtesy of LibraryThing Early Reviewers)
This was a surprise when it landed on my doorstep as it was a title I had "won" with LibraryThing back in August...and forgotten about. Ooops. Cie la vie....was doubly excited when it arrived though because really, how can you NOT think that cover (and title) are curious?! For more information on this title, seek out the folks at Chronicle Books. Scheduled release, November 2011.

Picked Up
These are those titles I rescued from the bins for wayward books. They are currently enjoying an extended stay at le hotel TBR Mountain....^-^
Beezus and Ramona by Beverly Clearly
Angels & Demons by Dan Brown
Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
This ARC actually didn't have the prying eyes of others around when it arrived, hence forth...I got first dibs! *fist pump*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That's all for this week...and last.
Slower, yes...but hey, it's the not quantity...it's the quality.
So, what did YOU get?
Do tell!
Until next time....happy reading!
I always love your shopping bags. You always mix it up :)
