Mailbox Monday

Welcome to Mailbox Monday! Each week we share which books made their way into our homes, but be warned: Mailbox Monday can lead to towering TBR piles and out-of-control wish lists! Originally hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page, Mailbox Monday is on tour and this month is being hosted by Rose City Reader. Thanks!


Two new arrivals made their way into my mailbox last week, and they arrived on the same day! (Go figure). In my mailbox on Wednesday was a copy of Remedies by Kate Ledger, who was kind enough to send me a signed copy when I mentioned on Facebook that her book was on my wish list. A big thank-you to Kate for taking the time to send me such a nice gift!


Also in my mailbox was a copy of Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakthrough by Ruth Pennebaker, for an upcoming TLC Book Tour. I've already started this one about three generations of women living under the same roof and I'm enjoying it so far!


Not in my physical mailbox, but in my e-mail inbox last week was an advanced copy of Kristan Higgins' upcoming release, My One and Only, via Netgalley and courtesy of the publisher. I really loved her book All I Ever Wanted, and I'm about halfway through this one and loving it as well.

That's what was in my mailbox. What was in yours?

    That's a nice selection of books. Remedies looks particularly interesting to me, and how nice of the author to send you a signed copy :)
    Enjoy your week reading!

    Is Women on a Verge of A Nervous Breakdown -- the same story as the famous Spanish movie from the 90's? Which BTW is a hilarious comedy.
