In My Mailbox {5}


IMM is a meme hosted by Kristi @ The Story Siren, where we showcase all the books we got over the past week.

Since I'm too lazy to take a picture and my camera isn't cooperating, here are the books I got:

B  O  R  R  O  W  E  D   F  R  O  M   L  I  B  R  A  R  Y

I recently signed up for an eBook borrowing programme at my local library (which is regretfully not nearly as exciting as it sounds, mostly because there are virtually no YA books available for borrowing) and managed to find this one YA title.
A Spanish Princess. An American Boy. A King set on revenge. An unrequited love and a disturbing family secret bring a World to the brink of War. 
In this coming-of-age story set in a medieval kingdom, Andrea is a headstrong princess longing to be a knight who finds her way to modern-day California. But her accidental return to her family's kingdom and a disastrous romance brings war, along with her discovery of some dark family secrets. Readers will love this mix of traditional fantasy elements with unique twists and will identify with Andrea and her difficult choices between duty and desire. 

And I got this from the school library:
Another town. Another school. Another Mclean. Ever since her parents' bitter divorce, Mclean and her father have been fleeing their unhappy past. And Mclean's become a pro at reinventing herself with each move. But in Lakeview, Mclean finds herself putting down roots and making friends—in part, thanks to Dave, the most real person Mclean's ever met. Dave just may be falling in love with her, but can he see the person she really is? Does Mclean herself know?



So...yeah. Mine isn't particularly exciting this week :P Leave a link so I can check out your IMM!
