In My Mailbox is a weekly event hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren. Stacking the Shelves is a weekly event hosted on Tynga’s Reviews. Here we can share what new books we’ve picked up this past week.
I picked up a lot of awesome books this week from the library:
Wonder by R.J. Palacio
A colleague keeps telling me I need to read this. I’ve heard it’s a Newbery contender, too. So I picked up the audiobook. So far I really like it.
Sun and Moon, Ice and Snow by Jessica Day George
I’ve read this before, but want to re-read it for Project: Fairy Tale. It’s a favorite of mine.
Mr. Monk Goes to Hawaii by Lee Goldberg
Scarlet by A.C. Gaughen
The World Above by Cameron Dokey
I saw a review of this one on The Daily Prophecy and decided to give it a try. It will be a quick read.
I really enjoyed Scarlet; and hooray for another Monk book!

I really liked Wonder. Glad to hear you’re enjoying the audio. Sun and Moon also looks appealing to me. Happy reading!
I love Sun and Moon, Ice and Snow.
And Wonder is great! I am so glad that I finally got around to it.
Wonder looks really good! I must try it out soon! Happy reading! Great haul!
Oh I have Sun, Moon, Ice and Snow! I need to go ahead and read it if you liked it!
I love Sun and Moon, Ice and Snow! It’s my favorite JDG book.
Some great books this week! Enjoy

I LOVED Scarlet, it’s such a good story! I hope you really enjoy it
I’ve heard Scarlet is awesome! And you can never go wrong with Monk! I hope you enjoy all you got
Here’s my STS!
Great books! I love Wonder, I read it last year and was very impressed!
I need to go to the library more often.
Great haul
Thanks for stopping by.
Cool, I hope you’re going to like The world above! And I LOVED Scarlet, so happy reading!

Scarlet looks incredible, i have been meaning to read this one at some point
Laura @Bookish Treasures
Wonder is SO good, omg I can’t even. You should read that one. First.
I’m listening to it right now! I knew from the first few sentences that I was going to love it. I actually checked to see if it was in the library, because I wanted to read the physical copy, instead of listening to the audiobook. But our book was checked out, and I do like the audiobook.
I have Wonder on my TBR stack but haven’t had a chance to read it. If it wins the Newbery, I’ll move it nearer the top of the stack. Thanks for visiting my blog. Happy reading!
Scarlett looks so excellent. I need to read that one soon. Enjoy your books
I haven’t read any of these but Scarlet looks pretty good. Happy reading

I’ve read the Princess Series by Jessica Day George but haven’t read that one yet, will have to give it a try sometime! Scarlet was a pretty good read. I love the cover of Wonder (:
Here’s my Sunday Post & In My Mailbox at Bookmunchies.
I loved Wonder and have been meaning to read Scarlet for some time now. I should get on that!!
I just finished Wonder. It is totally amazing. Seriously, read it! I bet your students would really like it too.
Oooh, are you doing East of the Sun, West of the Moon for Project Fairy Tale? I have at least three versions of that one that I want to read–hopefully I’ll get to at least one of them soon! Also SUPER excited that you picked up Scarlet, I freaking adore that book beyond reason.
Happy reading, Quinn!
I am a huge Robin Hood fan, so I’ve been wanting to read Scarlet for awhile.
Yes I am doing East of the Sun, West of the Moon. Once of my have books is Sun and Moon Ice and Snow, so I thought I should read some other retellings.
Scarlet sounds really good. I believe I heard that there is going to be another book too! I hope you enjoy everything.
Krystianna @ Downright Dystopian
Great books! I really enjoyed Scarlet and I’ve heard such good things about Wonder. Happy reading!

I have a friend who has been saying the same thing to me about Wonder. Still need to check it out. I hope you enjoy all of your new reads!
Thanks for stopping by my post!

I just finished Wonder. It was amazing. Seriously, definitely look into it.
I heard Scarlet was pretty good, don’t know about the others, though. Happy reading, hope you enjoy you books!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Monk is a book series!?!?! How did I not know this? I am going to be checking this out for sure!
Yeah, they started the books part way through the tv series. I’ve never read any, but I definitely wanted to give them a try. Natalie tells the story.
I’ve really been wanting to read Wonder! I hope you enjoy it!
MUST GET MY LIBRARY CARD. haha
I’ll be interested in your thoughts on Scarlet! I’ve heard good things about it, but was still unsure after downloading the sample on my Kindle. I’ll stay tuned for your thoughts! Plus, I love that I can always get it at the library if I’m still on the fence.
Hope you enjoy all of these
I quite liked Scarlet
