Mailbox Monday
Melody

Mailbox Monday is hosted by Marcia from The Printed Page.

These are what I received in my mailbox last week:

1) Rape: A Love Story by Joyce Carol Oates (I have to get this after reading Trish's review!)

2) Burnt Shadows by Kamila Shamsie (I simply love the cover. Plus, the blurb sounds good to me.)

3) The Moment Between by Nicole Baart (After reading Dar's review, there is no way I will want to ignore this book!)

So what books came into your house last week?

    These all have gotten some excellent reviews. I'm impressed you remember where you got the recommendations! That seems to be a big problem for me!

    Great books! I hope you'll enjoy The Moment Between as much as I did. I'm really curious about Joyce Carol Oates novel. I'll be watching for your review of this one.

    I haven't read anything by Joyce Carol Oates in a while. She's such a prolific writer isn't she? Some of her books I've really liked and others not so much. Hope you enjoy your book and I'll be looking forward to your review!

    I have Rape and Burnt Shadows in my TBR room waiting their turns to be read. They do sound good. I hope you enjoy your new books, Melody!
