Mailbox Monday #36


Welcome to the latest edition of Mailbox Monday, sponsored by Marcia at The Printed Page.


I've been accepting fewer books fore review, but I have received a few this week and I can't wait to read them.



1. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows for a TLC Tour in August.

2. Mr. Darcy, Vampyre by Amanda Grange from Sourcebooks for review in August.

3. Red to Black by Alex Dryden from Shelf Awareness for review.

What did you get in your mailbox this week?

Also, have you checked out my latest article on the Examiner? Here's my D.C. Literature Examiner posting about YA novels in verse.

Don't forget my giveaways: 2-year Blogiversary, here and here and here.

I'm 3/4 of the way through Guernsey and I'm absolutely adoring the story, it's beautiful!

I can't wait for your Guernsey tour stop. I absolutely loved that book.

You're in for a treat with Guernsey! Plus, it will count for the WWII challenge.

Guernsey was pure LOVE :D

Oh I have been wanting to read the Guernsey book also. I will be looking forward to your thoughts on that one Serena.

Guernsey broke my self-imposed rule of no more blog tours until after summer...simply because it did count for the WWII challenge.

I'm sooooo jealous of your Mr. Darcy, Vampyre book Serena!!! I hope you like it though :)

Kristen said...

I gave in and bought Guernsey because I kept hearing such wows about it. Hope you enjoy it and your others as well.

I do so want to read the Potato Peel PIE book. I'm assuming the Darcy book is for the Austen Challenge?

A friend of mine just bought Guernsey so I'm going to borrow it from her. Enjoy your books!

I will look forward to reading your review of Guernsey. I have that one in my TBR room waiting it's turn.

I'm curious about Mr. Darcy, Vampyre!

Some good books there Serena. I have Guernsey on my shelf but still haven't read it. I'll be reading Mr Darcy, Vampyre too-it sounds really good.

I think I am like one of the last 10 people who haven't read Guernsey yet! Enjoy your books!

I've been cutting back too. It seems summer, when our schedules should be more flexible, somehow get filled up with other things, doesn't it?
