Monday Mailbox

Sometimes I look at the books I have and have to chuckle. Anyone trying to predict anything based on what the eclectic assortment I read means would be hard pressed to come to any sort of reasonable conclusion, other than perhaps I am completely scattered and unclassifiable. This past week's mailbox arrivals:

Charlotte Street by Danny Wallace came from William Morrow and LibraryThing Early Reviewers.
A bit of a loser guy does something out of character, helping a girl on the street, and is rewarded with a dazzling smile before she disappears. Tracking her down via the pictures on the disposable camera he's been left holding sounds like a good idea to him. And it sounds like a fun read to me, provided it doesn't turn into a stalking of some sort!
My Scandalous Viscount by Gaelen Foley came from Avon and TLC Book Tours for a blog tour.
Thank heavens we are no longer honor bound to marry those we are caught kissing! But that doesn't mean that this as a plot driver in Regency-set romances isn't still wildly appealing as this novel about a rakehell and a busybody proves.
And Now We Shall Do Manly Things by Craig Heimbuch came from William Morrow and TLC Book Tours for a blog tour.
An author committed to investigating the hunting life and what it means to be "manly" as he grows closer to his father, this memoir completely and totally intrigues me.

As always, if you'd like to see the marvelous goodies in other people's mailboxes, make sure to visit Monday Mailbox 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.
