In my Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren in which bloggers share the books they have received each week.
Super busy week with real life getting in the way of reading and blogging! Argh! Hopefully normal service will be resumed very soon! In the meantime, I had lots of lovely books in my mailbox this week!

For review:
If I Stay by Gayle Forman
I've heard so many good things about this book. I received it as part of the Transworld summer reading challenge I'm taking part in.
Dead of Winter by Chris Priestley
I'm going to save this one for a winter's night when I can curl up in front of the fire and read it. Sounds like a spooky ghost story!
The Legacy by Gemma Malley
Bought:
At the start of this mesmerizing new installment of the Immortals series, Ever is helping her friend Haven transition into life as an immortal. But with Haven drunk on her new powers and carelessly putting them all at risk, their friendship becomes more and more strained. At the same time, Ever delves deeper into magick in order to get control over her enemy Roman and free Damen from his power. But when the spell she casts on Roman backfires, she’s bound to her deadliest enemy. Frantic to reverse the spell the moment the moon enters a new phase, she finds her efforts are fruitless—there’s a strange, foreign pulse coursing through her, one that propels her toward Roman. Desperate to break free of this terrible curse before Damen or the twins can discover what she’s done, she turns to Jude and delves deeper and deeper into dark magick, ultimately risking everything she knows and loves—including Damen.
I'm so excited that my copy of Dark Flame finally arrived three weeks after I ordered it. Three weeks!! Anyway, I can't wait to read it. Love this series!

Schooled by Anisha Lakhani
I've heard this is a little like Gossip Girl. Should be a fun read!
The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson
Gift:
St. Vladimir’s Academy isn’t just any boarding school—it’s a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They’ve been on the run, but now they’re being dragged back to St. Vladimir’s—the very place where they’re most in danger. . . .
Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy’s ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi—the world’s fiercest and most dangerous vampires—make Lissa one of them forever.
I've wanted to read this for a long time, and now thank to the lovely Simay at Zimlicious I can since she sent me a copy as a gift. Thank you! <3
