The Bookaholics: In My Mailbox {18}

Before you start wondering if my exam is over, the answer is 'no', unfortunately. I just can't resist the urge to update my blog as I've received some great books this week. Feel free to leave a comment if you like, and have a nice day! :)

For Review:

Possessions (Possessions, #1) by Nancy Holder

I'm super-excited about this book! Horror is a genre I'm learning to explore. And from what I hear this book has a high 'scare' factor. Even the book cover looks somewhat creepy! Special thanks to Nancy and Erin for sending me this book!

Won:

I won this book from a giveaway hosted by the author herself. Thank you for signing this book, and sending it to me, Elise! I'm looking forward to reading it.
