I'm working at a bookstore this holiday season and we just had our employee appreciation shopping days were we get a huge discount so I went a little crazy with the book buying!
In My Mailbox comes from Kristi at The Story Siren.
I've been getting into boy books lately since my NaNo book features a male first person POV so hence all the Darren Shan. (I actually bought the whole Demonata series (!) but the rest are coming in the mail sometime this week.)
I bought a couple books that I'd checked out from the library earlier this year and loved. (Lament and Paper Towns)
And a couple contemporary books I've been meaning to check out (finally getting to Sarah Dessen) but haven't because I hardly ever read contemporary. (The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian and The Sky Always Hears Me And The Hills Don't Mind)
Here's the full list:
Lament - Maggie Stiefvater
Lord Loss - Demonata #1 - Darren Shan
Demon Thief - Demonata #2 - Darren Shan
The Vampire's Assistant (movie tie-in) Books 1-3 of Cirque du Freak - Darren Shan
Paper Towns - John Green
Just Listen - Sarah Dessen
The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian - Sherman Alexie
The Sky Always Hears Me And The Hills Don't Mind - Kristin Cronn-Mills
Nightlife - Rob Thurman
Tithe - Holly Black
Valiant - Holly Black

Enjoy these awesome books! :)
Great books! The Sky Always Hears Me and the Hills Don't Mind is a wonderfully quirky read. I hope you like it. Happy Reading!
Lots of great books!
Love the Modern Faerie series. I have the series of covers like on your copy of Tithe. I want the other covers but I can't justify buying the whole series again haha
I have several of those, but I haven't read them. Paper Towns looks really good!
Lament's a great book! I haven't read a book by Sarah Dessen too. Haha. I really must start on that. :)
I want to read several of those - Great mailbox! :)
What a great selection - you are going to enjoy reading your way through that pile! ;-)
Some excellent choices! Let me know what you think of Darren Shan. So many times I've picked them up and I've always ended up getting something else.
Great bunch. Darren Shan is always great and Sherman Alexie's book is fabulous.
