Monday Mailbox

It's a good week when a pair of books as good looking as this week's arrivals appear in my mailbox. This past week's mailbox arrivals:

When All That's Left of Me Is Love by Linda Campanella came from Tate Publishing for a blog tour through TLC Book Tours.
A memoir about a daughter's last year with her dying mother, I expect this to be a difficult but rewarding read.

The Dressmaker of Khair Khana by Gayle Tzemach Lemmon came from Harper Perennial for a blog tour through TLC Book Tours.
The true story of a woman who not only started a business to support her siblings but also mobilized her community under the Taliban, this one sounds like an important and brilliant story.

As always, if you'd like to see the marvelous goodies in other people's mailboxes, make sure to visit Diary of an Eccentric 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.
