Mailbox Monday, created by Marcia at To Be Continued, formerly The Printed Page, has a permanent home at its own blog.
To check out what everyone has received over the last week, visit the blog and check out the links. Leave yours too.
Also, each week, Leslie, Vicki, and I will share the Books that Caught Our Eye from everyone’s weekly links.
Here’s what I received:
1. The Demon Who Peddled Longing by Khanh Ha for review in November with Virtual Author Book Tours.
Set in post-war Vietnam, The Demon Who Peddled Longing tells the terrible journey of a nineteen-year-old boy in search of the two brothers who are drifters and who raped and killed his cousin also his girl. It brings
together the damned, the unfit, the brave, who succumb by their own doing to the call of fate. Yet their desire to survive and to face life again never dies, so that when someone like the boy who is psychologically damaged by his family tragedy, who no sooner gets his life together after being rescued by a fisherwoman than falls in love with an untouchable girl and finds his life in peril, takes his leave in the end, there is nothing left but a longing in the heart that goes with him.
What did you receive?
I’ll bet the story is very emotional. Might write the title down.
I hope you have a great week of reading!
Thanks, Vicki.
Sounds like an intense read and I’m intrigued! Looking forward to your review.
Thanks for popping over Lucy
Love the cover on this one. I hope this one is a great read.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Thanks, Cheryl
The cover is awesome on The Demon Who Peddled Longing – enjoy
It is a cool cover.
That sounds like one angst filled book!
It does…but I like those.
Me, too! I’m only disappointed when the outcome doesn’t live up to the angst. I don’t like a big build up to just fall flat. I’ll be curious to see your review on this one!
I didn’t receive anything this past week. It’s been rather slow in the ARC area.
I haven’t received tons…most have been for my kiddo.
This one sounds so engaging! Thanks for sharing…and for visiting my blog.
you’re welcome
Can’t wait for your review! Enjoy!
Thanks. I hope its another good one.
Your book in the mail sounds very good, very thought provoking.
I liked his last one, so this should be good too.
I hope you love it!
I hope so as well.
Sounds interesting. Have a great week.
Thanks, you too!
Sounds like an intense book!
I like intense books, and I’m sure this will be no different.
A new one for me. Curious.
I’ve read one other by the same author and really enjoyed it. There’s a unique writing style.
