In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren.
I did another vlog this week, in which I talk about zombies,
sugar lips, not judging books by their covers, and why I might be a
little OCD. Oh, and my pug Frank makes an appearance.

ReplyDeleteHaha, your dog is so adorable!
ReplyDeleteI'm so eager to read The Fault in Our Stars. I confess, I've never read a John Green book but I've been totally convinced to read it by a few trustworthy bloggers. I'd also need to have my book signed in Green. It's just the logical and reasonable way to go.
I didn't like Bad Taste in Boys very much, but I love how those boys are calling the books 'Sugar Lips.' TOO FUNNY.
Thank you for reminding me why I used to find picture books so appealing, by the way. I'm thinking maybe I should pick out a favorite and buy one ;)
Have an amazing reading week!

I really want to read TFIOS! Everyone has been talking about it these past couple of weeks and now I'm desperate to read it :D.
ReplyDeleteI didn't care for Bad Taste in Boys very much either, I felt that it was very over the top.
Enjoy these! New follower :)
