Mailbox Monday is a fun meme where bloggers reveal the books that arrived at their house (by mail) over the past week. It is hosted by Marcia of The Printed Page.
Get any good books? Please share!

ReplyDeleteWow, you've a lovely loot there! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteYou had quite the busy mailbox! Enjoy your new books :)
ReplyDeleteHi, I stopped for a few reading tips not that I need them. -But there is always something new and interesting. I picked up a copy of "The Memorist" by M.J. Rose and escapism is perfect for rainy, Feb. You have a great book blog btw. Happy Monday to you.
ReplyDeleteI just got The Language of Secrets in the mail too and am looking forward to reading it. It sounds like it will be good.
ReplyDeleteAll of your books look like they will be good, actually. I hope you enjoy them!
I think the photo looks fine. :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all your new books!
Nice! There are a couple there that look good to me. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThis is the 2nd time I am hearing of The Book of Fires. I am definitely curious to know how it is!
ReplyDeleteI have an award for you here for being a great follower!! :)
My picture this week isn't too good either, so don't sweat it. I got Making Toast too and can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteI keep seeing The Book fo Fires around and I really like the look of it.
ReplyDeleteEvery Dog Has a Gift leaped out at me as a promising read (of course I am biased as have two gorgeous furry "girls.")
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Nanny, so I am holding out hope for Nanny Returns, but sequels are often a disappointment. Hope we both enjoy it!
You received a lot of great books...enjoy!
ReplyDeleteOK, so I asked for and didn't get either Making Toast or The Book of Fires. Maybe I'll hold out the hope that they'll come this week since everyone else got them last week. Yeah, that's the ticket!
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that the author saw you WoW post and sent you a copy of the book - how thoughtful!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your new books!
I so want to read This book is overdue!! Have fun reading!
ReplyDeleteI do love the cover of Book of Fires. I have been trying to get through it. Not so good as the cover. I'll keep trying. Happy reading..you have a lot to choose from.
ReplyDeleteThese look interesting. I look forward to your reviews, Diane.

It's very cool that the author saw your interest in her book and sent a copy! You got quite a good group this week. I hope you enjoy reading them!
ReplyDeleteCurious to know how "The Weed That Strings the Hangman's Bag" turns out. I thought Bradley's first go at Flavia was fun and cute; I may go for this second take but I'm looking forward to hearing more about it.
ReplyDeleteLots of great books to get lost in! Enjoy!
ReplyDelete"The Book Is Overdue" caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteI never get tired of looking at book pics. I love to see what everyone gets in the mail. It's almost like Christmas, huh?
ReplyDeleteTi...for me it's better than Christmas :)
