Mailbox Monday



This is where we spotlight the books that came to our home in the last week. Caveat:  Mailbox Monday can cause your TBR pile to increase exponentially. Mailbox Monday's host for August is Jennifer at 5 Minutes for books.


These are from the last two weeks.




Last Wool and Testament by Molly MacRae from Berkley for review/giveaway.

Wall to Wall Dead by Jennie Bentley from Berkley for review/Giveaway.

The Harbormaster's Daughter by Heidi Jon Schmidt from Nal (Penguin) for review/giveaway.

Nightshade on Elm Street by Kate Collins for review from the author.

Grandad, There's a Head on the Beach by Colin Cotterill, a win from Luanne of A Bookworms World

Trust Your Eyes by Linwood Barclay from SA/Penguin.

What exciting books made their way to your house this week?

    Hi Kaye,

    You just don't play fair, do you?

    You are not supposed to have a mailbox full of all those great books, that I just can't resist.

    I am not supposed to be listing any more potential books ... but who can resist. I love knitting and crocheting so 'Last Wool And Testament' is a must and of course the Linwood Barclay, as I already know just how good this authors work is.

    That will have to do for me, but thanks for highlighting all those great titles, enjoy them all.

    Yvonne

      I just couldn't resist that title! None of us can resist when we see great sounding books. We need a 12 step program.
