Mailbox Monday - 5/16/16


 
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, created by Marcia @ A Girl and Her Books, has a permanent home now at Mailbox Monday.
 *****************
Every week Mailbox Monday will have a new linky posted for our Mailbox Monday links at Marcia's Mailbox Monday blog.
Here’s a shout out to the new administrators:

 Leslie of Under My Apple Tree 
Vicki of I’d Rather Be at the Beach
Serena @ Savvy Verse And Wit 

THANKS to everyone for keeping Mailbox Monday alive.

I hope you had a good mailbox.

On Tuesday, May 11, I received:

1.  LIAR, LIAR by M. J. Arlidge, courtesy of Loren Jaggers of Penguin Random House.


On Friday, May 13, I received:

 **A Box of Books from Dey Street and Kendra Newton of Harper Collins.  I won these books in a random drawing at The Harper Collins Fall 2016 BEA Blogger Preview Event that was held online on May 5.**

The event was quite fun, and you can view it at the link above.  It takes a bit to get the video started so don't go away.  :)  You will enjoy it.

I will be sharing the books with friends and family...not really my genre, but so nice to have won.

1.  THE WORLD ACCORDING TO STARS WARS by Cass R. Sunstein.



2.  THE FORTRESS by Danielle Trussoni.



3.  IT'S OKAY TO LAUGH (CRYING IS COOL TOO) by Nora McInery Purmort.



4.  SEX OBJECT A MEMOIR by Jessica Valenti.



5.  THE VEGAS DIARIES by Holly Madison.

    1. It was a wonderful presentation.

      I think it was only because of the BEA being in Chicago, but not sure.

      It would be great if they do it every year.

      Thanks for stopping, Leslie.
