Mailbox Monday

This past week has been dreary and rainy yucky here so it was really lovely to open my mailbx and find a book in it twice. Amazing how one little thing can make the day that much brighter. This past week's mailbox arrivals:

Gillespie and I by Jane Harris came from Harper Perennial for a book tour.
An elderly woman decides to tell the story of her friendship with a long dead artist who never achieved the fame she thought he was due. I do love to read about creative people and their relationships or muses.

Spin by Catherine McKenzie came from William Morrow for a book tour.
Showing up for the job interview of a lifetime still drunk from the previous night's celebrations and landing a different job that will test your loyalty as a result? What a great sounding start to a book!

As always, if you'd like to see the marvelous goodies in other people's mailboxes, make sure to visit At Home With Books as she is hosting this month's Mailbox Monday and have fun seeing how we are all doing our part to keep the USPS and delivery services viable.

I have had to disable the anonymous comment option to cut down on the spam and I apologize to those of you for whom this makes commenting a chore. I hope you'll still opt to leave me your thoughts. I love to hear what you think, especially so I know I'm not just whistling into the wind here at my computer.
