Mailbox Monday (December 27)

Mailbox Monday buttonMailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books they received during the previous week. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists! Mailbox Monday, which was started by Marcia at The Printed Page, is on blog tour—this month, it’s hosted by Lady Q at Let Them Read Books.

I received one book in the mail this week: The Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostova, which I won from Luanne at A Bookworm’s World, courtesy of Hachette. You might remember that I met Elizabeth Kostova when she was in Montreal for the launch of this book.

No books under the tree for me this year, although my dad did give me some money to spend on two books, which I’ve ordered.

What did you find in your mailbox this past week? For other Mailbox Monday posts, head over to Let Them Read Books.

    The Swan Thieves is on my to-buy list! If you only get one book in a week, that's a good one to get! I DID receive 3 Debbie Macomber books from a friend for Christmas, and after Christmas a friend gave me The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks! Enjoy! I also have The Historian on my must-buy list!
