I woke up at a ridiculous hour this morning and the first thing I did was sit down to write this post… I think I’m a little obsessed with this blog.  (Yikes.)  Anyway, since it’s Wednesday, it’s Beg, Borrow, and Steal time!  This is my take on the In My Mailbox meme set up by Kristi over at The Story Siren.  Let’s to see what bookstuffs I came to posses in the past week!  Enjoy!

Begged:

Books I got for really good deals!

Kissed by an Angel trilogy by Elizabeth Chandler
I saw the cover for Evercrossed earlier this year, and the whole series went on my to-read list.
I was able to snag this because I participated in my library’s summer reading program! (Nudge.)

Waterfall by Lisa T. Bergren
Downloaded for free!  Thanks to A Book Vacation for the heads-up on the deal.

Borrowed:

Copies checked out of different libraries.

Texas Gothic by Rosemary Clement-Moore
Very excited to read this!

Wildcat Fireflies by Amber Kizer
The anticipated sequel!

Witches of East End by Melissa de la Cruz

My Soul To Take by Rachel Vincent
I saw it on the shelving cart and grabbed it for my own. :D I am an evil library page…

Steals:

Prizes, ARCs, and swag.

Enclave by Ann Aguirre
Signed!  Thanks to Kristin at My Bookish Ways for the giveaway, and Ms. Aguirre for sending it!

Swag and things from San Diego Comic Con!  Thanks so much to my friend Lexie!

Ace/Roc and DAW samplers, Night Circus and Inheritance Cycle posters, pins,
and the following books…

Dead Mann Walking by Stefan Petrucha

Don’t usually read zombie books, but this zombie protagonist sounds pretty cool!

Resistance by William C. Dietz

Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
Release Date: November 15, 2011
Cannot WAIT to tear into this!

Thanks again, Lexie!!!

So… I’ve just noticed that the blog has reached 100 subscribers some time during the Summer Giveaway Hop.  Woohoo!  Thanks everyone!  I would celebrate with a giveaway, but I already have two going on right now ;) … but I’ll definitely keep this in mind for later this month.  :)   I was planning some things anyway, so… Yes.  :) :) :)
