Monday Mailbox

Another of the odd couple pairings that often arrive together joined my bookshelves this week. This past week's mailbox arrivals:

The Tell-Tale Heart by Jill Dawson came from Harper Perennial.

Centered on a fifty year old university professor who receives a heart transplant from a teenager involved in a tragic accident, this examination of life, death, organ donation, and the soul should raise interesting and difficult questions.

Not Without My Father by Andra Watkins came from Word Hermit Press.

Who do you ask to walk 444 miles with you when everyone you'd rather choose says no? Why, your elderly father, of course. This sounds like a hilarious look at both a major accomplishment and at father-daughter relationships.

If you'd like to see the marvelous goodies in other people's mailboxes, make sure to visit Mailbox Monday and have fun seeing how we are all doing our part to keep the USPS and delivery services viable.

  3. I have the Dawson on my wish list. I think I've requested it at Edelweiss. Please let us know how you like it!

  4. If The Tell-Tale Heart does not have any Poe references in it, please throw it against a wall. Just sayin'.

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.
