In My Mailbox (15)

It's another edition of The Story Siren's In My Mailbox. For those who may be new to this bloghop, it's a way to share the books we've picked up in the past week. They don't have to arrive through your actually mailbox, books borrowed or purchased or checked out from the library are all welcome.
In My Mailbox
Borrowed from a Friend
The Fallen by Thomas E. Sniegoski
This is actually the first two books in the series (The Fallen and Leviathan). I'm not completely sure what its about, but from the cover and title I have a feeling it's about fallen angels. It is YA, and there are 2 more books in the series after this (or really 1 mega-book), so I'm excited to get into a new series.

For Review
The Tudor Throne by Brandy Purdy
This was actually sent to me by the author herself. Aside from the book there were also 2 bookmarks (pictured above) and the book was signed as well. It's about Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth I, and looks to be from each one's point of view in alternating chapters. I'm always looking for new historical fiction, from England in particular, and this is another one I can't wait to dive into.

So tell me, did you find anything good in your mailbox this week?
