Mailbox Monday #29


I originally started this post by saying it had been a slow week for my mailman and UPS driver, but that is no longer the case. You'll soon see why. I really started off the week with just a couple of books, then the weekend came, and the newbies grew . . . multiplied . . .

Mailbox Monday is sponsored by The Printed Page.



1. A Girl's Guide to Modern European Philosophy by Charlotte Greig for review in September.







2. Secrets to Happiness by Sarah Dunn for a Hatchette Group Early Birds Tour in June.






3. Mating Rituals of the North American WASP by Lauren Lipton for a Hatchette Group Early Birds Tour at the end of May.






4. MAX by James Patterson on Audio from Hatchette Group, which I won at Lost in Books.








5. Bloody Good by Georgia Evans from Joan Schulhafer Publishing and Media Consulting for review in June.








6. Admission by Jean Hanff Korelitz, which I won from Booking Mama.

    You are right, you landed some good ones! I LOVE the cover with the dog...he is the epitome of happiness. I'm interested in the Maximum Ride series...its big with the kids right now. We've considered reading them as a family.
