Mailbox Mondays (click the icon to check out the new blog) has gone on tour since Marcia at A Girl and Her Books, formerly The Printed Page passed the torch. This month our host is Amused by Books. Kristi of The Story Siren continues to sponsor her In My Mailbox meme. Both of these memes allow bloggers to share what books they receive in the mail or through other means over the past week.
Just be warned that these posts can increase your TBR piles and wish lists.
Here’s what I received this week:
1. To Join the Lost by Seth Steinzor for a TLC Book Tour in November.
2. The Time in Between by Maria Duenas from Shelf Awareness.
3. Kill Me If You Can by James Patterson and Marshall Karp from my mother.
4. I Curse the River of Time by Per Petterson, which I won from Caribousmom during BBAW.
5. Tracks by Eric D. Goodman, which I received for review from the author.
6. Ladybug Girl Dresses Up! by David Soman and Jacky Davis, which I picked up from Penguin at the National Book Festival — first time books were given away for free.
7. Skippyjon Jones by Judy Schachner, which I also picked up from Penguin for “Wiggles.”
8. Stagecoach Sal by Deborah Hopkinson, illustrated by Carson Ellis, which is signed by the author and given away to 100 attendees at the Penguin tent.
9. The Chameleon Couch by Yusef Komunyakaa, which I purchased at the National Book Festival and got signed by one of my favorite poets.
Library Loot:
Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Claire and Marg that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library. If you’d like to participate, just write up your post-feel free to steal the button-and link it using the Mr. Linky any time during the week. And of course check out what other participants are getting from their libraries!
1. Does the Noise in my Head Bother You? by Steven Tyler
