In My Mailbox is an exploration of what books I brought home this week, and is organized by The Story Siren.
I got two books for review this week:
Claire de Lune by Christine Johnson
Claire is having the perfect sixteenth birthday. Her pool party is a big success, and gorgeous Matthew keeps chatting and flirting with her as if she's the only girl there. But that night, she discovers something that takes away all sense of normalcy: she's a werewolf.
As Claire is initiated into the pack of female werewolves, she must deal not only with her changing identity, but also with a rogue werewolf who is putting everyone she knows in danger. Claire's new life threatens her blossoming romance with Matthew, whose father is leading the werewolf hunt. Now burdened with a dark secret and pushing the boundaries of forbidden love, Claire is struggling to feel comfortable in either skin. With her lupine loyalty at odds with her human heart, she will make a choice that will change her forever?
Raised by Wolves by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Release Date: June 8, 2010
Adopted by the Alpha of a werewolf pack after a rogue wolf brutally killed her parents right before her eyes, fifteen-year-old Bryn knows only pack life, and the rigid social hierarchy that controls it. That doesn't mean that she's averse to breaking a rule or two.
But when her curiosity gets the better of her and she discovers Chase, a new teen locked in a cage in her guardian's basement, and witnesses him turn into a wolf before her eyes, the horrific memories of her parents' murders return. Bryn becomes obsessed with getting her questions answered, and Chase is the only one who can provide the information she needs.
But in her drive to find the truth, will Bryn push too far beyond the constraints of the pack, forcing her to leave behind her friends, her family, and the identity that she's shaped?

I absolutely love these covers. They have an air of mystery to them.
Hope you enjoy reading these
Hmmm, I didn't realize there were still so many werewolf books coming out.
I bought a historical YA that reminds me of Shogun. It's called The Way of the Warrior. I hope it's good!
Looking forward to hearing what you think about Claire de Lune. I've heard a lot about it.
I have Claire de Lune and I love the cover! Haven't had a chance to read it yet though.
I got a copy of Claire De Lune a few weeks ago. I love the cover, but I haven't had a chance to read it.
