Mailbox Monday - 5/8/2017

 
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.

    Ooh, I'm envious that you got The Child. For some reason, I was not approved for it on NetGalley.

    Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.

      I was approved by the publisher for a tour...that must be why.

    Hi Elizabeth,

    All new to me authors this week, but I really like the sound of 'The Child' and 'Not A Sound'.

    I like it when a book arrives unannounced, that particular heavy thud of book through letterbox, is always very satisfying!

    Enjoy your books and have a good week :)

    Yvonne

      The "thud" is a fun sound. :) Mine was UPS so my "thud" was on the porch. :)

      Not A Sound is good...started it already. :)

      The Child is supposed to be a good read also.

      Thanks for stopping, Yvonne.

    I received Not A Sound as well, and get wait to get to it. I enjoyed The Child. I think I may have enjoyed The Widow a smidge more though ;)
