Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia and is now hosted on its own blog.
This is my first Mailbox Monday in 2014 so I have few books to show… This post have the books I bought during my 3 month stay in Ireland and next week I’ll post what other books I had during that time. I’ll just list the links to Goodreads because I’m too lazy to do anything else.

All are new to me except Daughter of Smoke and Bone, which I still haven’t started. I hope you enjoy all your books!

I’ve heard good things about Daughter of Smoke and Bone and I have high hopes for it.
