I haven't participated in Mailbox Mondays for awhile because, frankly, I don't receive as many books each week as some of you do, but this week I'm happy to say I have three to share! There have also been some changes at Mailbox Monday! This month I'm Booking It is hosting. For a complete list of Mailbox Monday Blog Tour Stops for 2011, visit Mailbox Monday.
Here are the books I've added this week:
- THE TRINITY SIX by Charles Cumming -
There's been some great things said about this exciting espionage thriller from Cumming. I don't normally read books of this type, but I'm going out of my comfort zone and really looking forward to the change in genre. Click here for more about the book. Thanks to St. Martins Press for sending my review copy.
- BLOOD OF MY BROTHER by James LePore -
This is the second book from LePore that I now have but I have yet to read either of them. It sounds fascinating and I think I'll like it, but once again, its a bit out of my genre comfort zone. I'd like to thank Goodreads First Reads for sending me this copy.
- 61 HOURS by Lee Child -
This is a week of firsts for me and it is also true with this book. My birthday was last week and I decided to treat myself to a new-to-me author. That's right! I've never read anything by Lee Child! I know the Jack Reacher series has been out for a long time, but I've heard so much about this book and my Aunt just finished it and loved it so I thought I'd try it. I've always wanted to read Lee Child's work and I think this is a good place to start. The story sounds exciting!
Thanks for stopping by today and allowing me to share my new books with you. For more Mailbox Mondays, please visit I'm Booking It. Have a great reading week!
I really liked Blood of My brother!
ReplyDeleteI see great books here! Look forward to read your reviews! As usual, for the some weeks, I got none!

ReplyDeleteBoth books are new to me. Will wait for your reviews.
ReplyDeleteThese are all new to me, but they sound good. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read anything by Lee Child, either...another author on my "to read" list.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog, and enjoy your books.
They all sound like great reads, stop and see mine.
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the last person on earth who hadn't read Lee Childs. Lol, guess I'm still gonna be even though every review of his work is a rave - I just haven't gotten around to him yet. I'll be looking forward to your thoughts on the book. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteThe only Lee Childs I've read is a Jack Reacher short story and it was quite good-- I love thrillers but lean more toward science/history thrillers. I'm working on expanding my horizons too.
ReplyDeleteClever to combine books and food-- I'm a foodie too and constantly fight the urge to start a food blog.
If you have time, come visit! You are invited to join my new book haul linky party anytime-- the theme is bargain books!

I've heard good things about Blood of My Brother, but that cover creeps me out!
