In my Mailbox #8



IMM is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren. It is a way for book bloggers to post what they have received for review, borrowed from a friend, bought at the bookstore, or picked up at the library.


In my mailbox this week:
This week I got a few books to share with you.


Books I bought at adlibris.com


Firelight by
Sophie Jordan
Marked as special at an early age, Jacinda knows her every move is watched. But she longs for freedom to make her own choices. When she breaks the most sacred tenet among her kind, she nearly pays with her life. Until a beautiful stranger saves her. A stranger who was sent to hunt those like her. For Jacinda is a draki—a descendant of dragons whose greatest defense is her secret ability to shift into human form. (goodreads)

As a ghost, she can do nothing but will him to live. Yet in an unforgettable moment of connection, she helps him survive. (goodreads)
