Mailbox Monday (13)



It's that time of week again: ...Mailbox Monday. Mailbox Monday was started by Marcia of The Printed Page. It is currently on blog tour and this month is being hosted by A Sea of Books. It's a great opportunity for all of us to share what books have come into our home the previous week.


Shoes Hair Nails


by Deborah Batterman


A debut collection of short stories drawn from the everyday symbols in our world and their resonance in our lives.


Batterman, a fellow SheWrites member, has generously provided me a copy of her novel for review. Will be posting review of this on Wednesday.


The Magicians and The Magician King

by Lev Grossman

Sent by BlogCritics for review.

Return to Fillory in the riveting sequel to The New York Times bestseller and literary phenomenon of 2009--The Magicians. 




The Foreigners

by Maine Swann


A glittering, energetic novel about three women-each experiencing an awakening in the gloriously conflicted and sexy city of Buenos Aires.




The Map of Time 

by Felix J. Palma

A Map of Time by Felix J. Palma. Set in Victorian London with characters real and imagined, The Map of Time is a page-turner that boasts a triple play of intertwined plots in which a skeptical H.G. Wells is called upon to investigage purported incidents of time travel and to save lives and literary classics, including Dracula and The Time Machine, from being wiped from existence. What happens if we change history?







Another awesome week with books I can't wait to read.
