Mailbox Monday, July 23

On-going summer of awesome: yet another week of fantastic arrivals! In our house, birthdays are to be celebrated for thirty days, so I'm just telling myself it's the pub world helping me to celebrate! ;) This week's Mailbox Monday (hosted in July at Mrs. Q: Book Addict). As usual, click on a cover to learn more about the book (link will automatically open in a new tab/window).  What did you get?  Have any of these?


For Review

      I know -- many of these are 2013 releases so I have to keep telling myself to wait on picking them up!

    These look great! I have heard of some of them, and some of the authors, but have not read any of them yet.

    The Donna Leon book looks very good. Love a good mystery. Jasmine Nights is on my shelf to read and I hope to do a book tour of the Orphan Master's Son. Your other books look like good reading as well.

    I'm really looking forward to A Working Theory of Love. I've also been meaning to read The Orphan Master's Son since it came out in hardcover. Enjoy!

      It looks so unique -- and I love the simple cover -- so striking.

    Jasmine Nights is a fun read - the story about women being spies in WW2 is good, but be warned - there's a fair amount of romance!

    Now and then I don't mind romance -- it's infidelity that kills me and makes me all conservative -- but a hot bosom-heaving fling works for me usually! ;)

    Ooh, I have the Giles Kristian novel too. It looks good, but I have to hold off on reading it for a while.

    I love the cover for Seven Locks!

    Happy reading, Audra :)

    Orphan Master's Son was quite different but I liked it a lot more than I thought I would.

    I asked for Ashenden (Edelweiss) but they haven't approved it yet.
