This has been a crazy week all around, and I will be happy to put it behind me. This is a new weekly meme and I would be delighted if you participated. It's the perfect opportunity to recap what happened on your blog and highlight what's coming up. We are all busy and this offers us a chance to see what we might have missed. Plus it offers a place to showcase what we received during the week and give creds to those who made it possible! You can join in every week or as often as you like. The link will be open all week, that way you can post whatever day works for you.
This week on the blog I reviewed: Angel Condemned, The Kingdom on the Edge of Reality, The Calling and Embraced by Blood. I posted a Waiting on Wednesday and shared a giveaway and excerpt of He Came for Me. If you missed any be sure and check them out.(click on links)
Coming up this week we have some exciting reviews: Eyes of Justice, Life in the Land of IS, Vanishing Game and Of Poseidon. I'll also be sharing an excerpt of Martuk..the Holy and interviewing Lada Ray author of Gold Train. There will also be a few giveaway so be sure to stop by!
Have an awesome week! I know I will thanks to the release of three highly anticipated books on May 1st; Insurgent by Veronica Roth, Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins, and The Last Boyfriend by Nora Roberts (BoonsBoro Trilogy #2). Who need sleep right? Have you ordered your copies? Is there a book being released this week that has you excited? Be sure and leave me a link to your news.

I downloaded Every Last Kiss as well. I had the second one before I realized it was a sequel, lol. Die for Me looks fantastic.
Great haul! And thanks for starting up The Sunday Post!
Oh you got the books from DL already? Sweet! Hope you like them.
The Sunday Post is cute! <3
I was window shopping on NetGalley the other day and lingered over Code Name Verity, synopsis sounds really interesting - enjoy! I just love the cover art on Die For Me too - that dress is amazing - my favourite colours.
Wow, some great books your got there. I read your The Kingdom on the Edge of Reality review. I was a part of that blog tour too. But I could not get into that book. Thanks for stopping by.
I've been seeing Code Name Verity around and I'm definitely interested in reading the book. I can't wait for you review!
Like Christy said, The Sunday Post is cute! ;)
Happy reading, Kimba! <3
I love the button, it looks so cool! :)
I haven't heard some of these books but they look really good! Die For Me is supposed to be REALLY good! :) Enjoy your new books and have a great week Kimba.

I thought about getting my own copy of Code Name Verity when I first saw it. The title of the book is just so very intriguing!

your new books are eye candy for me! So many of those books look really good! I was in a hurry this week, so I didn't post very much in the way of weekly updates, I will do more next week, but I love this new meme, thanks so much for hosting it! I actually have Embraced by Blood on my bookshelf... one of these days I will get to it... Anyhow, happy reading Book Savvy Babe
You got some great books! Siren's Song looks interesting :) Here are my books: http://oh-my-books.blogspot.com/2012/04/now-staking-shelves.html
Great Books!!! I love the cover of the Siren's Song. It draws me in. Thanks for stopping by our blog. Enjoy your books :D -TheUnseelieNerd
I also got Code Name Verity and I can't wait to get started! It sounds so awesome! You got some great books this week. Happy reading! Check out my haul:
Crystal @ Elegantly Bound Books
Even though I already participated in another one this week, I wanted to link up with everyone else, so I did. I'll try yours out next week! Anyway, I LOVE Die for Me! Great books! Thanks for stopping by!
Amber @ Fall Into Books
i love the cover of siren song
njoy all
I'm interested to see what you think of Amanda Quick's new book! I love all her books, but this one has received so-so reviews.
Hi Kimba!
I've been looking for a meme to show off my mailbox for a while now. I would've participated in The Story Siren's IMM meme, but you have to review YA books, at least from time to time, in order to participate. As a non-YA reviewer, I didn't feel right participating. Does your Sunday Post meme have this stipulation as well? If not, I'd love to participate!
Thanks! :)

Great haul! I loved Die for Me, I hope you enjoy it.
Happy reading.
My IMM
I'm really excited for Code Name Verity, especially after Maggie Stiefvater's review. Glad you grabbed it as well! I'll look for your thoughts on it. And I can't wait to see what you think of Insurgent and Sweet Evil!
Great haul! Code Name Verity sounds amazing! Can't wait to get started on it! I LOVE your new meme, Kimba :) I have decided to join Sunday Post as well!
Hi Kimba! You had an awesome book week! I love the look of your new meme, and that you review past posts and highlight what's coming up in the next week. I'm still deciding what I'm going to do now that I'll no longer be participating in IMM. I'm taking a week off to figure it out. You may see me here next week!
I hope you love Die for Me, and I can't wait to hear what you think of What a Boy Wants!
~ Jen @ A Book and a Latte
That Cole book looks cool, which means, google time ;)
EnjoY!
Thx for the linky & stoppin' by to say "hi"!!!!! :-D
I think it's cool what you're doing & I'm happy to link back to you. And link up. And whatever... all of the above. What a crazy week, eh? GREAT HAUL, btw, and thx for the reminder of all the great books coming out this week!! I've got a pre-order of Sweet Evil comin' to me!! Woop!!!!
-Burgandy Ice
I like this meme, nice button. You also got an awesome haul of books. Happy Reading!
Great books I still have Die For Me to read. Hope you enjoy your new reads. Thanks for stopping by my blog :)
The Sunday Post....I love it! I think I'll drop by next week and take part in this.
Great books too. I loved Die for Me. Hope you enjoy them all.
Thanks for stopping by my STS
Great books Kimba! Code Name Verity missed my Sunday Session post by about 10 minutes but I've heard great things about it!
Love The Sunday Post :-D
I cannot wait for Insurgent!!! I'm so excited!!
And, I hope you are LOVING half-blood! That series is a favorite of mine :)
Die For Me is the only book I recognize in your haul. And it was awesome. I definitely feel like I've been living under a rock after looking at your haul. I'll for sure keep your meme in mind for next week. Out of all the ones I've been looking at, this one may suit me the best. Bt we'll see (next week's will probably be a mish-mash of meme's until I can figure out which one suits me best). Great haul this week!
Thanks for visiting my IMM.
Awww, this Sunday Post meme is totally cute, Kimba! :) I've been seeing so many different memes to showcase books we've gotten, and this is one of the awesome ones! There are so many books I don't recognize but think sound awesome in your haul, but I think you should read Die For Me First! That one was really sweet, and even though it wasn't perfect, I just finished reading an ARC of the next one and completely loved it! ;)
Awesome book haul this week, Kimba! I hope you enjoy them all!
Great haul this week. What A Boy Wants looks like a good read. I still can't decide if I want to read Die For Me.
Thanks for stopping by my blog
I still totally heart that button! And I am with you on Insurgent...Tuesday NEEDS to get here! Like now!
Here's my Stacking the Shelves post. Hope it's okay if I post it here!
Great books there. Enjoy :)
This week is an awesome week for book releases! I'm looking forward to Bitterblue and While He Was Away the most, and I pre-ordered Insurgent even though I haven't read Divergent yet (but I'm pretty sure I'll love it).
LOVE The Sunday Post! Awesome, haul, too! :D
I'm most looking forward to Sweet Evil releasing (the cover is so beautiful!)! Though there are quite a few releases, so I'm sure I won't run out of choices!
Who needs sleep, indeed. :D
Thanks for dropping by!
Happy reading! :)
Oooh, you got some good books this week! I so need to read Die for Me! And Code Name Verity looks so intriguing!
I like the news/what happened/what's next part of this post too! A nice addition to the Sunday round-up! Hehe.
Thanks for commenting on my Letterbox Love post lovely <3
Faye :)
I've had Code Name Verity and now I'm hearing so many great things about it that I know I have to get to it sooner rather than later. I loved What A Boy Wants. So cute.
I still haven't decided if I want to read Die for Me. Hope you enjoy it. Maybe your review will decide me. :)
Nice list of goodies you have this week. Every Last Kiss looks very interesting. Definitely going to check it out. Enjoy your goodies.
I need a copy of Crystal Gardens! Mystery, historical and paranormal romance - sounds like my kind of story!
Enjoy your books!
My Mailbox Post
Oh I'm expecting Code Name verity this week it sounds very different from what I'm used to but one that will stand out! Die For Me is pretty awesome too! Great haul Kimba!
Eeee! I really need to read Die for Me -- the cover of it and Until I die are just stunning! And I can't wait to read Code Name Verity, it sounds so different from anything else I've read :) Thanks for stopping by!
Kim @ The Paper Planes
I look forward to your review for Of Poseidon. I've yet to read it, but I have a review copy and am hoping to get started soon! Thanks for this initiative for a Sunday post. :) I didn't know it yet when I posted this week, but I may participate next week.
Also, of the books you got, Die For Me is a great read. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. What a Boy Wants sounds intriguing as well.
Enjoy reading!

Oh, I got Die for Me as well. I hope you enjoy all your new books. Have a great reading week!
Die For Me! The covers for this series are so pretty <3 I've been ridiculously slow reading lately, but from the few chapters I've read of the sequel, I LOVE! I've been hearing some great things about Code Name Verity, I definitely need to check that out. And I love ths ound of Every Last Kiss!
Your mailbox = flippin' awesome this week. ENJOY! :D
Ooh, Die for me!! Great haul! :)
I'm so glad I came across this post - I was looking for a new meme to do that was related to IMM. I will definitely be participating next week and moving forward!
Thanks and hope you enjoy all your books!
Kristin @ Always With a Book
I love the new meme! Sorry I didn't get a chance to participate this week but I will next week I promise! I'm envious of your new books but at the same time I'm glad you got them so I can read their reviews! Have a fabulous week of readig and blogging and thanks for dropping by my IMM :)

Thanks for stopping by!
:) Aeicha @ Word Spelunking
A wonderful new meme :) I love the title & your button! I completely forgot to do my post for this week but will stop by for the next one..
I hope you enjoy Die For Me, I really liked it!
Wow, great week past, and wonderful on the horizon. :) Hope you have a great one!
Hi Kimba.
Firstly, apologies for the delayed response and nice to see a new meme out there. I don't mind sharing a cup of coffee... or in my case, Redbush Tea.
As for the choice of books for this week, there's a couple there that has piqued my interest, namely "Code Name Verity" which although it is targeted at YA is a story which has some real resonance about the women who spied for the Allies during World War II and "Die For Me". I haven't read the first book in this series, but it's set in Paris and I'm getting a hankering to do a City Break there some time in the near future.
Sounds great :) I hope you enjoy your books.
-Maxine @ Teenage Fiction
Great meme, Kimba! I love the badge :)
I really want to read Die For Me. That's on my TBR list but just haven't had a chance to read it yet.
Hope you enjoy all your new books! And thanks for stopping by to check out my first STS:
