Monday Mailbox

This past week's mailbox arrivals:

The Likely Resolutions of Oliver Clock by Jane Riley came from me for myself.

This is a quirky sounding tale of a strictly regimented man who loses the woman he loves and must learn to loosen himself up some if he ever wants a chance at happiness and love. I do like books that promise to be charming and delightful like this one.

Mobile Library by David Whitehouse came from me for myself.

Will you look at that cover?! ::swoon:: If I needed to escape bullies and an abusive father, I'd want to abscond in a mobile library so I am curious about this book, which promises to be both hard and redeeming.

Mr. Darcy's Guide to Courtship by Emily Brand came from me for myself.

Do I need a reason that's more than "because Mr. Darcy?" I mean, advice from Mr. Darcy on courtship? Don't mind if I do!

Seven Days in Summer by Marcia Willett came from Thomas Dunne Books.

With summer coming, what's better than a book about family and friends gathering at or staying away from the beach house they've been coming to for years. This is the stuff of delicious stories and tensions and I can't wait.

A Happy Catastrophe by Maddie Dawson came from a lovely book friend on Litsy.

Will these two opposites, who have been in love for a couple of years now, find enough commonality, especially in the face of an 8 year old surprise, to stay together and make a life? I liked the author's previous book so I'm looking forward to this one.
