Mailbox Monday is meme created by Marcia from The Printed Page. Marcia says,"Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists." Mailbox Monday is on tour and this months hostess is none other than the fabulous Kathy of Bermudaonion's Weblog. Thank you Kathy for hosting!
I didn't receive any books via the mail or ups but I did run to pick up medicine for the dog and I may or may not have gone a bit out of my way to drive past Borders where of course I had to stop and browse. They had a wonderful sale section where of course I couldn't help myself and purchased a few bargains plus I purchased a book for my Goodreads book group read for the month. Now I know why I have been keeping myself out of bookstores. As you can see, I have no control. Just call me hopeless!
Still The One by Robin Wells
The following books were $3.99 each!
One Fifth Avenue by Candace Bushnell
Dune Road by Jane Green
The Lost Hours by Karen White
Rooftops Of Tehran by Mahbod Seraji
The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen
The next book was $5.99. I have been glancing through it and find it quite humorous!
I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence by Amy Sedaris
So what great books made their way into your home?
