Marcia at The Printed Page and Kristi of The Story Siren both sponsor memes in which bloggers share what books they've received in the past week. I'm going to continue calling these Mailbox Mondays, but The Story Siren also has In My Mailbox.
This mailbox is another full one and I have no idea how that happened.

3. The Weight of Heaven by Thrity Umrigar
4. Gargoyle 54
5. Mrs. Darcy and the Blue-Eyed Stranger by Lee Smith
6. Christening the Dancer by John Amen, a gift from the poet.
7. An Arsonist's Guide to Writers' Homes in New England by Brock Clarke
8. Watermark by Vanitha Sankaran
9. Tainted by Brooke Morgan
10. Burnt Shadows by Kamila Shamsie
11. Stettin Station by David Downing

You've a lovely loot there! Happy reading!
Don't you love those weeks where the postman is dropping off packages day after day. I got The Swan Thieves as well, looks like it will be a great read!
I just finished Yolen's The Devil's Arithmetic, so I'm curious about the Radiation Sonnets. I also received The Monuments Men.
Happy reading!

Your mailperson must have a sore back from all those books. Have a fun time reading them all.
You received a great stack of books!! I got The Weight of Heaven and look forward to reading it. Lucky you getting a copy of The Swan Thieves!
I think I see some giveaways in your future! I read Burnt Shadows with my book club and I really enjoyed it. I was definitely in the minority, though.
I hope you enjoy Burnt Shadows as much as I did. I found it very thought provoking.
And what a great lot there =)
My mailbox is up at The Burton Review.
Happy Monday!
Your mailbox must be sagging from all the great books!
You did get a ton! Have fun reading!
What great books! My mailbox is at The Crowded Leaf.
A great mailbox week! I have a couple of the books on my stack too.
Go Serena!! Happy Reading!
Here is mine
I have The Swan Thieves on my wish list. I have read many great reviews for it. Enjoy that enormous stack of books!
Wow, you must have an extra large mailbox by now Serena. Happy Reading!
OMG! Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter? I've not heard of this, but it set me off with giggles just thinking about it. Will have to pick this up just for laughs!
Wow...your mailbox is out-of-control....I love it!! Enjoy all the great goodness!
Nothing in the mail today... The Swan Thieves is on my wishlist, you will have to let us know how you enjoy it!
That is a great loot! Happy reading!
Mondays: Musings/Mailbox/Whereabouts
Gulp!! Have fun Serena!
You got some great looking books! Mrs. Darcy and the Blue Eyed Stranger really appeals to me. I've read other books of hers and really liked them so I could even be tempted by this collection of short stories, which I normally avoid like the plague.
