Mailbox Monday
June 13, 2016
Welcome to Mailbox Monday, a meme started by Marcia and now hosted on its own blog. Yesterday was the 8th anniversary of my blog but, after hearing of the tragedy in Orlando, I didn’t feel much like celebrating. My heart aches because of the hatred and senseless violence in this world and I long for a solution. I found these goodies in my mailbox last week:
Monday
- Don’t Tell Me You’re Afraid by Giuseppe Catozzella came from Penguin Random House
Tuesday
- One Paris Summer by Denise Grover Swank came from Harper Collins
Thursday
- The United States of Beer by Dane Huckelbridge came from Harper Collins
Friday
- Darktown by Thomas Mullen came from Simon & Schuster
- The Binding by Nicholas Wolff came from Simon & Schuster
- Truevine by Beth Macy came from Little, Brown
- The Wonder by Emma Donoghue came from Little, Brown
- IQ by Joe Ide came from Little, Brown
Saturday
- Look at You Now by Liz Pryor came from Penguin Random House
- Baby Doll by Hollie Overton came from Hachette
What did you find in your mailbox last week?

Yesterday was a sad day, for sure.
All of your books are new to me so I’ll watch for your reviews.
I never read Room, even though I know it was a bit hit. Maybe I’ll try the new one first.
Wow!Wow!Wow! That’s a huge pile of books, and Emma Donoghue has a new book coming out. Awesome!
I’m going to have to check out ‘Don’t Tell Me You’re Afraid.’ It sounds great!

A great way to celebrate your anniversay,with some great titles.
Congratulations on the anniversary, can’t let the troubles in the world lessen that achievement. So many great titles there. I am looking forward to the new Donoghue and it’s the first time I’ve come across IQ but it’s gone straight on my wishlist! Enjoy.
The recent, senseless tragedy is so awful. It saddens me greatly.
Congratulations on 8 years of terrific book blogging, Kathy! Enjoy your new goodies.
Happy blog anniversary, Kathy! Yes, yesterday was such a tragedy. My heart breaks for those affected.
I hope you enjoy your new books! They all sound good.
Happy blogiversary!!! And what lovely books you got this week.
Happy Blogiversary although, yes, that terror is awful. I don’t understand hate like that. It is just evil as far as I can tell.
I searched out a couple of your titles. I loved Room so hope you really enjoy The Wonder. Don’t Tell Me You’re Afraid sounds interesting too. I hope you enjoy all of your new books!
Looks like a great stack. Enjoy!
The violence in Orlando, and around the world, is horrible, such a tragedy.
I have Room but haven’t read it yet. I plan on getting to it soon and then might read The Wonder.
I know many people who go to Pulse and a few of them were going to go last weekend. I’m so thankful they changed their minds. What a terrible tragedy!
Very nice mailbox. ENJOY!!
Happy 8th Blogoversary.
Agreed….a very senseless, horrific tragedy.

And I agree- I’ve just been so heartsick about the tragedy in Orlando.
