Special Small Book Haul: One Book: One Month Anniversary Gift!

About a month ago I started dating the most wonderful man in the world! His name is Matt and I love him so much!

Tuesday March 19th was our one month anniversary. A few days before he asked me what I wanted for our anniversary. I told him just to get me a book. :) He said he would pick out the book. :)

So, this is the book My Matt got me:

The picture is a bit blurry. It is The Neverending Story by Michael Ende!! We had talked about it and I mentioned I wanted to read the book but didn't have it yet! And he got it for our one month anniversary!

If you're reading this, thank you again! And I love you sweetie! Mwah! <3

These are the books I've gotten the past few weeks. I've already read territories of folding by T. C. Tolbert and loved it! T. C. came to a reading at my school for an event for VOX, the literary magazine I work on there. I'm excited to get to the other books as well. I've heard good things about The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian. I've also heard many great things about Under the Never Sky. And lastly, bloom: finding beauty in the unexpected I heard about through my friend Tahnie's facebook page. By the way, check out her blog! http://www.ahappygirl.com/

Good few weeks! I have a ton of books to catch up on thought! Can't wait to get reading! What did you guys get this week?

This is my first In My Mailbox post. I've seen them and they look like fun. Though this is more like my books for the month of January (and some may be from December and I'm probably forgetting some). So this is like playing catch up. I may post a video of this In My Mailbox too.
