In My Mailbox (20/08/11) & Week In Review

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren, 

in which you post all of the books/e-books/audio books that you have recieved/bought/won this week and link 'em all up!

So yesterday I was up at 6am waiting for my exam results (ABBBC), after spending four hours celebrating passing my first year I then went to work, where they told me that they had to let me go, as there wasn't enough work for me and the managers (I was the only part time worker there), then just an hour later I end up scalding my finger with boiling hot water and going to hospital.

I was feeling pretty miserable until I got home to a parcel with five books in from Hachette.

Now I'm happy!

So anyway, here's my mailbox

For Review:

 

(ARC) Far Rockaway by Charlie Fletcher (Hodder Childrens, UK release: 1st September) - Never heard of this one, but it actually sounds amazing! 

(ARC) A Witch in Winter by Ruth Warburton (Hodder Childrens, UK release: 5th January 2012) - Wahhh, this sounds fantastic, not out until January! :)

(ARC) Abandon by Meg Cabot (Macmillan Childrens, UK release: October 7th)- Massive Meg Cabot fan and been after this forever, I would love the pretty UK cover, but I can't wait, so I'm happy I got this ARC!

Jessie Hearts NYC by Keris Stainton (Orchard) - I've already read and reviewed this here, so now I have two copies (and Keris promised me a signed copy!) (expect one of them as a giveaway prize for my 500 followers, when I get there!) - I currently have a giveaway for this going on, it is UK only and ends 3rd September - Here is the post

Dark Angel by Eden Maguire (Hodder Childrens) - This is one that I've been after for ages, the cover is gorgeous and I love Maguire's Beautiful dead series!

Ultraviolet by RJ Anderson (Orchard) - I've already read this, but haven't reviewed it yet, so I'm going to reread it so I can review it!
