In My Mailbox: Sunday September 18

So it's Sunday again (somehow!), and I spent too much money at the bookstore this week. Which means we have another edition of The Story Siren's excellent meme: In My Mailbox!


The first three books I got at the local independent bookstore - Claudia Gray's Fateful, Gabrielle Zevin's All These Things I've Done, and Deb Caletti's The Six Rules of Maybe.  I've totally been looking forward to Gray's "werewolves on the Titanic" book since she started talking about it, and it finally came out this week!  Martha Schabas' Various Positions is one I ordered from a used book seller so I haven't gotten it yet, but it's a ballet book!  I couldn't resist.

From the library I only got two (mostly because I forgot to pick up my hold list when I left on Friday):

Birthmarked by Caragh O'Brien - so I can reread and then review Prized!
The Living Dead 2 - John Joseph Adams editor - a collection of zombie stories from a bunch of awesome authors.

And thanks to NetGalley and Myrick Marketing and Media for the eARCs for review of the following!

Soldier's Game by James Killgore
Crusade in Jeans by Thea Beckman


As always, I can't wait to get reading!

What excellent new books (or new to you!) did you pick up this week?
