Mailbox Monday

It's the last Mailbox Monday of 2009! Whew- those holidays went fast! In fact, this entire year flew by for me! If you're new to Mailbox Monday, this is the place where we share what was in our mailboxes last week. E-books and audio books count, checked out library books do not. This is kindly hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page.

This week was stellar week in books for me. I received one book for an upcoming tour, as well as one book for review. On Christmas Eve I received a package from my book blogger secret santa containing three new-to-me books! I also went shopping on boxing day and was going to pick up two books marked down to $4.99 with a gift card that I had, but when I got to the cash they rang up at $0.99 each! So, back to the book bin I went and I picked out a total of 9, which came to under $10 with taxes! Although I didn't get those in the mail I'm going to post about them anyways, just because I love reading what other people have purchased in their posts. These are the books that I received:

For an upcoming book tour: Spin by Catherine McKenzie

For review: The Last River Child by Lori Ann Bloomfield

From my secret santa: Saul and Patsy: A Novel by Charles Baxter
Split-Levels by Thomas Rayfiel
The Biographer's Tale: A Novel by A.S. Byatt

And finally the books that I got while shopping on Boxing Day!:
Varieties of Disturbance by Lydia Davies
The Romancipation of Maggie Hunter by Jane Sigaloff
Without a Backward Glance by Kate Veitch
Step-Ball-Change by Jeanna Ray
The Only True Genius in the Family by Jennie Nash
The Professor's Wives Club by Joanne Rendell

That was my week in books- what was in your mailbox last week?
