Mailbox Monday and It's Monday...What Are You Reading?




Mailbox Monday 
is a gathering place for readers to share the books that
came into their house last week and explore great book blogs. 
Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.

Well, can I just say that I'm blaming all of these new books on Mary, Ti, and JoAnn? Let me explain why. Early Sunday morning I turn on my iPad just to do some browsing and came across Mary's Sunday post and I notice the Ciji Ware title right away. So, of course I have to then go to Amazon to see what the price is for my Kindle.  $4.99!!! I bought it immediately. Then I also remembered Ti posting about The Painted Girls being today's special value...which led me to buying that one for $2.99. And while I was browsing through the titles I couldn't resist The Bucolic Plauge because of JoAnn's love for this book and actually getting to meet the authors earlier this year!! I lost control...but all three of these titles cost me $10.00.....how can you resist that??

    The Bucolic Plague caught my eye in your list, and I recognize the authors as the guys who won last season's Amazing Race! Sounds like a fun book--I like fish out of water stories, as well as farming and urban/rural stories. Sounds perfect!

    Happy reading.

    Sorry to be an enabler... well, not really ;-)

    Beware of The Bucolic Plague. You may want to buy a few goats and plant a bigger garden - don't say I didn't warn you!
