Mailbox Monday



I have decided to join Mailbox Monday and meet some new blogger friends and also to keep a record of all the books I am receiving. Yikes!!!
So hello to everyone and I know I will pick up a few ideas from all of you.
Here's what crossed my front step last week:

1.The Color of Lightning by Paulette Jiles
2.Yellow Knife by Steve Zipp
3.Drood, by Dan Simmons
4.The Commoner, by John Burnham Schwartz
5.Firelane by Kristin Hannah
6.The Empty Mirror, by J. Sydney Jones
7.The Miracles of Prato by Laurie Albanese and Laura Morowitz
8.My Stroke of Insight, by Jill Bolte Taylor, Ph.D. Non-fiction
9.The Long Fall, Walter Mosley
10.Big Boy Rules, by Steve Fainaru Non-fiction

I have to say, this was a particularly overwhelming week. Needless to say it was like my birthday and I am grateful to have received them. Now for the reviews. LOL

    Welcome to Mailbox Monday! I seem to love participating in Monday and Tuesday memes!! :) They really are a great way to meet new bloggers.

    I also received Firefly Lane, and am wishing I had requested Drood because of all the rave reviews it is getting!

    Welcome and thank you for stopping by the 'mailbox' this week. 'Yellow Knife' is in my TBR pile. I've already had the pleasure of reading 'Firefly Lane'.

I'm glad you stopped by my blog. I welcome your comments and will try to answer you back whenever possible. I like to think we are a learning community, that this is an interactive blog, and communication and dialogue brings us closer together as we share our common interest in reading books.
