Monday Mailbox

It was a very busy week at my house but even so, I always want to be the one to collect the mail every day just in case there are books for me in there. And this week was very satisfying that way. This week's mailbox arrivals:

Short Leash by Janice Gary came from Michigan State University Press Press and TLC Book Tours for a blog tour.

I am a complete sucker for dog books and this one has one of the best covers I've ever seen. But the fact that it is about two damaged and fearful souls, one human and one canine, and how they healed each other makes it that much more appealing.

The Pursuit of Mary Bennet by Pamela Mingle came from LibraryThing Early Reviewers and William Morrow.

How could you not want to know what happens to the prissy, uptight Mary Bennet once she has a chance to shine on her own merit? I am a sucker for anything Pride and Prejudice so I can't wait for this one.

Lost Lake by Sarah Addison Allen came from St. Martin's Press.

Addison Allen's books are magical and I expect this one about a woman who is just about to sell Lost Lake to developers and the mother and daughter who show up there needing the lake just before she sells to be as enchanting as her previous books.

Perfect by Rachel Joyce came from Random House and TLC Book Tours for a blog tour.

I loved The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Joyce and so I am looking forward to this next offering of Joyce's.

If you'd like to see the marvelous goodies in other people's mailboxes, make sure to visit I totally paused 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.
