In my mailbox was created by Kristi of The Story Siren, who was inspired by Pop Culture Junkie. Here are the books I got this week...
City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare
Published by Simon & Schuster
To complicate matters, someone in New York City is murdering Downworlder children. Is Valentine behind the killings -- and if he is, what is he trying to do? When the second of the Mortal Instruments, the Soul-Sword, is stolen, the terrifying Inquisitor arrives to investigate and zooms right in on Jace. How can Clary stop Valentine if Jace is willing to betray everything he believes in to help their father?
Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr
Published by HarperCollins
Rule #3: Don't stare at invisible faeries.
Aislinn has always seen faeries. Powerful and dangerous, they walk hidden in mortal world. Aislinn fears their cruelty—especially if they learn of her Sight—and wishes she were as blind to their presence as other teens.
Rule #2: Don't speak to invisible faeries.
Now faeries are stalking her. One of them, Keenan, who is equal parts terrifying and alluring, is trying to talk to her, asking questions Aislinn is afraid to answer.
Rule #1: Don't ever attract their attention.
But it's too late. Keenan is the Summer King who has sought his queen for nine centuries. Without her, summer itself will perish. He is determined that Aislinn will become the Summer Queen at any cost—regardless of her plans or desires.
Suddenly none of the rules that have kept Aislinn safe are working anymore, and everything is on the line: her freedom; her best friend, Seth; her life; everything.

Awesome books, I've read the whole Mortal Instruments series and love Wicked Lovely. Those other two have been on my TBR list for a while, so I'll be curious as to what you think of them. :)
Wicked Lovely and City of Ashes are made of awesome. Happy reading!
You had a great book week. I adored the Mortal Instruments and The Fairie series that Melissa Marr has written.
I love Wicked Lovely> Great books you got there! :)
I really want to read The Midnight Twins and City of Ashes (Thought I need to read Bones first lol)
Wicked Lovely and City of Ashes are both GREAT books! Enjoy!
Midnight Twins sounds really fascinating! The cover is absolutely gorgeous. Happy reading!
I've been strongly considering reading Wicked Lovely, but I'm not sure if I would like reading about faeries. But then again, I didn't want to read Harry Potter because of wizards and Twilight because of vampires. I'll probably give it a shot too. I'll be looking out for your review on it (if you decide to do one).
