Mailbox Monday
April 27, 2009
Mailbox Monday is hosted by Marcia of The Printed Page. Head over there if you want to join the fun or see what everyone else got last week. I had a great week, but most of the books I received were wins or prizes. Here’s what I found in my mailbox:
Monday
- North of Montana by April Smith – the paper with this one says it was a win – I think it was from Twitter
- Janeology by Karen Harrington – a win from Karen’s blog Scobberlotch
- 8 books by George Pelecanos – these were a prize for calling in to his Blog Talk Radio show
Tuesday
- The Last Bridge by Teri Coyne – this is a Library Thing Early Reviewers book
- 2 more books by George Pelcanos – again from calling in to Blog Talk Radio
Wednesday
- B as in Beauty by Alberto Ferreras – a win from Book Reviews by Bobbie
Friday
- Life’s That Way by Jim Beaver – from Folio Literary Management

Great stack of books! I hope you like B as in Beauty as much as I did 🙂 Here’s the link to my Mailbox Monday post.

That’s quite a stack. Enjoy!

another big week of books for you! 🙂
That’s a lot of books! I have to admit, I’m just a wee bit jealous of your copy of Janeology – I’ve entered every giveaway I’ve seen for that one. I think that may be one title that makes me add to my books-bought total for the year.
I. hate. you. :-p
I soooo want Janeology! 😀 Congrats on the win!
Oh, I finally figured out how the video thing works with Skeleton Creek (I think it was you who was telling me you liked it). There’s a password to enter in at the website. lol…
Now can you read all those in a week? hehehehee
Gotta love all of those wins! Enjoy your reading!
That’s a great haul of books! I hope you enjoy them!
Wow, that’s a crazy pile! Congrats on all your wins and enjoy your books!
Wow so it’s George Pelecanos week for you lol? Hope you enjoy them!
Thank you for stopping by the mailbox this week. Enjoy your books!
In my opinion, you are reading one of the best writers of detective fiction in the world. I blundered on Pelecanos in the magazine First Edition and started with the first one. Would love to know what you think. I’ve never been able to give them away and they are in my bedroom now. I don’t like the current ones as much as I did Shoedog, The Sweet Forever and A Firing Offense.
I prefer the totally bleak and hopeless ones! Next time you are over my way (hollernotes.blogspot.com/) please
sign in. I think I’d like to keep in touch with you.
