In My Mailbox: been a while crocodilo

Haven't done an IMM in a while. I hope I didn't forget anything. Please let me know what you thought of any of the books if you've read them. Thanks!


Lately I've received:


I won this darling bag (from handbagheaven.com) over at Katy and Kid. I love it!

I've received quite a few books lately + a weaving loom (heck yeah!)

In the picture are the following books (click links for goodreads link):

• Minding Ben by Victoria Brown. RD: 4.12.11. For review. Oh so curious as it sounds fun!
• Blankets by Craig Thompson. RD: 2003. My sister won this one for me over at Adventures of Cecelia Bedelia. Head on over. Her blog is lovely as heck and she's got a cool giveaway! I wonder if I'm supposed to consider the graphic novel an early birthday present? ehem February 15 thankyouverymuch it'll be the not-so-big 2-0. Well in Japan I'd be considered an adult at 20 so then there it would be the BIG 2-0. 
• Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, book 1) by J.R Ward. RD: 2005. So excited to finally begin this series! Won over at Paranormal Haven. 
• The Dark Divine by Bree Despain. RD: 2009. Won over at Fire and Ice. Came with blue nail polish (I love nail polish!). I won these books for a certain someone since I already have copies. :) 
• The Lost Saint by Bree Despain. RD: 2010. Won over at Fire and Ice. 
• Born Blue by Han Nolan. RD: 2003. Bought at half price book store. Been on my tbr list for the longest. Snagged it for a buckaroo!
• Kat, Incorrigible by Stephanie Burgis. RD: 4.5.11. For review. It looks cute, I can't wait to read it. I'm sure my 10 year old cousin will love the story!
• The Internet is a Playground by David Thorne. RD: 4.28.11. For review. It sounds hilarious! 
• Kick-Ass by Mark Millar. Borrowed. Had tons of fun with the movie. Excited! Mark Millar seems so hilarious and awesome.

Not pictured:
