In My Mailbox: 1/28/12

Hosted by The Story Siren

Just me this week - Alyssa - since super soccer star Gregory is off at some soccer showcase event, and Jake in "under the weather" with a fever/cough/cold. What a baby!

There were slim pickings this week. I think our library is holding out on me. There's a whole conspiracy against me I'm sure of it!

 The Hunger Games

Bought this for our Kindle Fire to read before the movie arrives. 

Gotta admit, I'm actually loving e-books. I was skeptical.

The Girl of Fire and Thorns

Picked this up from the library.

I know I requested more, but this one was the only one waiting for me. Ah, the woes of living in the middle of nowhere.

 The Black Butler Volume I and II

Gifted to me by an awesome friend who knows my embarrassingly deep love of this anime.

Untraceable

Got this baby because we're reviewing it for an upcoming tour with Mundie Moms. So excited to start reading it!

That was it. I'll take quality over quantity any day though. 

Been a busy week because we've been getting ready for two big events. The biggest is...

It's Jake's birthday! Yep, today he's 19 years old. A fact I doubt when his best comeback is, "Well...your FACE!"
I've spent all month trying to find the perfect gift for him and thank goodness Ash over at Smash  Attack Reads tweeted about a zombie infested obstacle course. That's right, ZOMBIE INFESTED.

Run For Your Lives 2011

It's a ways off, but I got tickets for Jake, some of his friends, me, and Gregory to go. It looks so awesome!

Our second major event?

Natalie over at Mindful Musings is kicking off the Demons at Deadnight blog tour where we're giving away a bunch of prizes everyday, and at the end of the tour, a Kindle Fire along with a couple other awesome things. You just have to stick around to find out.

     

Where else will you find people who give you free stuff AND tell you about zombie infested obstacle courses?

Hope all your Sunday is IMMazing!
