In My Mailbox {70}


I got two special books in my mailbox this week.  Both of which I've read, but since their paperback releases were this week - well I just had to buy them!  I am IN LOVE with the paperback edition of Moonglass. Seriously. That sunset is gorgeous & the scene fits the book so perfectly.  When Jenny Han announced there would be bonus CONRAD material in the paperback of We'll Always Have Summer, well there was no question there.. of course I needed this book!!!


Moonglass by Jessi Kirby



The bonus material inside We'll Always Have Summer are the letters Conrad wrote to Belly. I won't tell you when or why he wrote them (it may be spoilery), but I seriously screamed out loud when I saw this in one of the letters - CHRISTMAS BEACH COUCH!!!!!!!! If you know me, then you know it's my favorite scene in the whole series (it's in book 2).  I even got Jenny Han to sign my book with it :) Oh Conrad... *sigh*


What's in YOUR mailbox this week?

  2. That IS a great cover for Moonglass! I bet the book will sell more with this cover than with the old one, especially with summer coming up :)

  3. I got both of these books too this week :) I haven't read either of them, though - I waited for the paperback releases because the Moonglass PB is so pretty and I wanted my copy of We'll Always Have Summer to match my other Summer books. You make me want to read both of them immediately :)

  7. Both of those books are ones that I keep meaning to read. I love and hate that there are so many awesome books to choose from and that I can't read everything I would like to read.

    I do two new books posts each week. I showcase my new YA and Middle Grade books at Ms. Martin Teaches Media. I spotlight new adult books at Inside of a Dog. Happy reading!

  10. I may or may not be swooning just over that little letter snippet. I own the HC but I must find a way to read those letters ASAP.

  11. I loved Moonglass and Han's Summer series is my all-time favorite series too. Love it! I adore the new paperback cover of Moonglass- maybe even more than the hardback. Enjoy your books!

  15. I'm going to have to get the paperback copy with the bonus Conrad material, there was far too little of Conrad until the last book. That was my favorite book of the series, of course! Enjoy your books!
