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 see what's inside this week...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Review
Wolf Spring Chronicles: Unleashed by Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguie
(Review copy courtesy of Lauren at Random House Children's Books)
Betcha recognize this author duo, right? If you haven't heard, their NEW series is getting ready to release on November 22nd...can we say early Christmas present? Will be digging into this one soon...watch for the blog tour to swing by this December!
The Puppy That Came for Christmas by Megan Rix
(Review copy courtesy of Milena at Penguin Group/Plume)
Is that not the cutest puppy ever?! The story sounds absolutely touching as well...perfect for the holiday season. If you simply can't wait to get your hands on this one, you'll be happy to know it's on sale now...otherwise, review coming in the next few weeks. ^_^
You're (Not) the One by Alexandra Potter
(Review copy courtesy of Penguin Group/Plume)
This one was actually a surprise arrival so working it in for a read/review before it releases....umm, can I get a rain check? But seriously....it is definitely going into the reading schedule and in the mean time, you can read a bit more about it on the Penguin Group/Plume website. Scheduled release date is set for November 29th, 2011.

Won
The Nightmare Before Christmas by Tim Burton
(via Julie at Geist Write during her Ghostly Giveaway....thanks!)
A happy surprise indeed when I found out I had won a hardback of this charming tale. Okay, so charming is probably stretching it but it IS a good story...and who knew that the book differed so much from the movie! Yep...I'm guilty of devouring this one after freeing it from its packaging. Review coming soon. ^_^

That's all for this week!

What did you get that I should make note of?
Do tell!
Until next time....happy reading!

I love the film The Nightmare Before Christmas but had no idea it was available as a book - something else to be added to my wish list.
Oh! I got both of the Plume books you picked up as well! I love that puppy, so so so adorable. :o) And wow! That new Nancy Holder novel looks great. I'm interested to find out more about it.
Fabulous haul! :o)
Hot stack mama :)
AH!!! So jealous of You're (Not) The One! I've come so close to ordering the UK release several times, but I'm loving this US cover :o)
You get the cutest dog books :)
