Mailbox Monday is a weekly meme hosted by The Printed Page.
I also got quite a few new books this week. It seems like every time I went to the mailbox, there was another new package of goodies. Take a look:
I also got an iPad. I am so excited. I really haven't played with it much, but I think it is really cool toy. Since I have ventured into audio books I can now read books on this lovely little gem.

How do you like the I-pad? You can surf the internet with it right? (low-tech here) as well as read downloads?
Maybe that's what I need instead of a new laptop. just to use on the couch, bed, for reading,,,,,looking at your blog, etc.
I've heard wonderful things about Marcelo in the Real World, I put it on my wishlist last week. So glad you loved Graceling, it was one of my favourite reads of 2009.
Love, love, love audiobooks, you get so much extra reading done while driving and doing housework. Enjoy your new found indulgence LOL
Have a wonderful week & happy reading :-)
Totally jealous of the iPad! I'm gonna wait for a few more months and see what similar models come out before I take the leap. Hope you love it :)
Wow! Before I Fall and Will Grayson, Will Grayson. What a great week!
lol Marcelo in the Real World another book lying around from my library borrowing binge. I have to get to that. And woah, five reviews, congrats! 8D
Your mailbox had a busy week! Congrats on the ipad! I'm a tiny bit jealous. ;-)
The iPad looks awesome! I hope you enjoy it.
I am currently reading Mistwood so I will wait to read your review till I am done.
You did get some fantastic books to read this week too. I just read Before I Fall and I really liked it. Whisper is on my TBR list.
I hope you enjoy your books and your new toy :) Have a great week!
I totally love listening to audio books. i have sure enjoyed so many more books since I started.
happy Reading (and listening)!!
Congrats on your iPad! I love my Kindle for e-reading and, although I am tempted by the iPad, have to content myself with laptop and Kindle lol
Here is my Monday: http://thelostentwife.net/2010/05/02/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-19/
Happy reading! What an intriguing collection of books you have.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
I'm going to have check out your review on Meg Cagot's Airhead. I love her adult books and always wanted to see how she was as an young adult author.
Congrats on the iPad, it looks like a ton of fun!
Glad to see you liked Graceling on audio. I thought it was really well done.
And congrats on the ipad. Wow.
I'm drooling on the picture of your iPad!! I'm an Apple fan from way back, but my beloved iBook is getting very old (ancient in computer years).
Sounds like you had a great reading week. I'd like to read Marcelo in the Real World, too.
Thanks for your comment about The Wright 3 - I'll pass that onto Craig!

ohhh... mistwood! i was thinking of purchasing that book. i'm off to read your review! have a great week jan! :)
I'm beyond jealous at this point! If I could have an iPad it would just make my year! They look absolutely beautiful!
Loved your mini-reviews this week by the way...I think I left a comment (???). And I'm really interested in your review of Storm Glass.
Thanks for always being such a great reader of my site, it really means so much! Hope you have a fabulous reading week and I will see you around, I'm sure of it!
Ooh the IPad looks great - congratulations! And Graceling on audio huh/ I am going to have to watch for that one. I am a big audio fan :)
You have some fantastic books this week! I *adored* Before I Fall and I really hope you like that one and I am so jealous about The Karma Club! It isn't out in the UK until the end of June, but I do have it one pre-order! Enjoy!
I thought Before I Fall was one of the best YA books I've read in awhile and should be on everyone's reading list that works with teens, is a teen, knows a teen, etc.....and oh, your ipad ~ i have ipad envy!!! all those buttons!
do you love it?
