Books for Mail + Simply Sunday (#17)
Books for Mail is basically me showcasing my addiction to buying books. Every two weeks, I’ll show you guys which books I have bought/received, and hopefully you’ll find some great titles!
In My Mailbox:
The Infinite Moment of Us by Lauren Myracle: I have always been interested ever since I saw that gorgeous cover, and this is a signed ARC :O Thanks to Hannah for this!
The Beginning of Everything by Robyn Schneider: Again, looks really good, and I have heard a lot of great things about it. More thanks to Hannah for an ARC copy of this!
Man Made Boy by Jon Skovron: Anything to do with Frankenstein and I am so there. Thanks Hannah!
The Monster Within by Darrell Pitt: The fourth Jack Mason book about a creepy monster terrorising people. :D Thanks to Text Publishing for this copy!
Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli: My paperback of this baby arrived *heart eyes* I need to reread ASAP.
And here are the copies of the Study books that arrived this week:
Simply Sunday is a reading meme run here at Books for a Delicate Eternity. It’s where you can share your favourite quote of the week; be it from a book, a novella, a short story, a poem, a song – whatever you like!
My Simple Thing:
“Love isn’t a choice. You fall for the person, not their chromosomes.”
A quote from I.W. Gregorio (None of the Above).
Why I Chose It:
Everything about this quote is so completely perfect and right and there was no way I wasn’t going to use it for this week’s quote. I believe in the words so wholeheartedly.
What books did you receive in the mail recently? What do you think of my Simply Sunday?
P.s. I opened up a writing blog on Friday! And you can win a book to celebrate ^.^
Nice haul! I’ve been wanting to read The Infinite Moment of Us for a while. I hope you like it!
And as for the quote, wow. Loved it. Simple but with a deep message <3
Thank you! Yeah I hope I like it as well :D I have heard some good things.
I’m so glad you liked it, Jennifer ^.^
Hahahh you’re already going to REREAD Simon? Sounds like it’s as amazing as everyone says it is. AND CONGRATS on the new writing blog! I will check it out, even though I don’t write….yet…..maybe……I am very clueless on writing.
YES. It’s so gorgeous, and I love it muchly!
Thank you, Valerie <3
I really want to read Simon, even more that I know you enjoyed it so much – I haven’t heard a bad thing about it yet. And yay for writing blogs!!!
xx
I hope you can read it soon, Ely! It’s so lovely on so many levels.
All the yay :D
The infinite moment of us has such a pretty cover. I love the colors. Everybody is RAVING about Simon. I don’t think I have heard one negative thing.. I must admit I wasn’t interested first, but now I might go ahead and read it anyway :) HAPPY READING!
I know! Me, too. I am such a sucker for pretty covers XD
And I’m so glad the positive reception of SIMON has you interested, Mel! It is truly a gorgeous book.
THANK YOU <3
YAYYY for Simon! I am really excited that this book released this week. The Beginning of Everything looks interesting too.
YES YAY SIMON! It’s such a precious book and I love it.
I think so, too! I remember seeing it around a lot when it was released, so I am looking forward to reading it :D
Some great choice you have there, Chiara! I recently received The Little Prince, a book I’ve been meaning to read for a while.
I’ve been meaning to re-read The Little Prince lately! I read it when I was a kid, and I’m afraid it might have gone a bit over my head XD I hope you enjoe it, Priscilla!
Ooh, Simon Vs. The homo sapiens seems like it’s going to be an amazing read. I can’t wait to get to it!
Ah, you’ve pinpointed another exquisite quote, Charlene. I ordered that copy of None of the Above that I mentioned I might and this gets me even more excited about reading it. What a perfect selection of words.
Yay! Happy opening of your new blog! I’ll definitely be going over to see it! Have a happy week. Xx
I hope you like it when yo do get around to reading it, Romi! :D
OH YAY. I cannot wait to read your thoughts on None of the Above! It’s such a touching story.
Thank you! <3
Oh… um… I actually didn’t like The Infinite Moment of us as much as I wanted to but I really do hope you enjoy it! I have a HC of it and I still use it to take photographs because it’s so beautiful <3
The quote is amazing. I saw None of the Above in a bookstore today and was so sad that I had no money to buy it. That book is going to open my eyes and wreck me at the same time.
Awh, no D: I can completely understand using it to take photos. It is WAY too pretty.
Thank you! I could not resist choosing it because it’s just so perfect. I hope you can read None of the Above soon, Nova!
Simon Vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda once again! I’ve heard so much about this book I cannot wait to read it omg. I just got The Selection so I’m going to be reading that this week and OMG that quote. Ugh, all of the feels. Well done!
Yes! :D I hope you like it as much as I did, Alejandra. It’s seriously gorgeous.
Ah, The Selection has such a gorgeous cover.
I’m glad you liked it! ^.^
The fact that you liked Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda (whew! that’s a mouthful!) so much to reread it makes me even more excited for my copy to arrive.

Nice haul! The Infinite Moment of Us has such a gorgeous cover. I’m going to look that one up on Goodreads.

Thank you! And yes, the cover has caught my eye a million times.
No problem, Rochelle! I’m glad you liked it :)
So many beautiful books this week! (Poison Study was pretty big wasn’t it?)
I got Room by Emma Donoghue (the book will have to wait though, my TBR just gets bigger and bigger).
That quote is beautiful and such a declarative statement! :D
I know! I am in love with my books :D
My TBR is too big. Way too big.
It is! I could not resist it. :)
