Mailbox Monday ~ August 2nd

Mailbox Monday is touring through blogs in the upcoming months. In August it will be hosted by Chick Loves Lit.

Mailbox Monday was created by The Printed Page. It is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their home last week.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

In my mailbox last week:

An ARC of The Eternal Ones by Kirsten Miller through Shelf Awareness.

What if love refused to die?

Haven Moore can’t control her visions of a past with a boy called Ethan, and a life in New York that ended in fiery tragedy. In our present, she designs beautiful dresses for her classmates with her best friend Beau. Dressmaking keeps her sane, since she lives with her widowed and heartbroken mother in her tyrannical grandmother’s house in Snope City, a tiny town in Tennessee. Then an impossible group of coincidences conspire to force her to flee to New York, to discover who she is, and who she was.

A finished copy of The Nobodies Album by Carolyn Parkhurst which I won in a giveaway.

From the bestselling author of The Dogs of Babel comes a dazzling literary mystery about the lengths to which some people will go to rewrite their past.

Bestselling novelist Octavia Frost has just completed her latest book—a revolutionary novel in which she has rewritten the last chapters of all her previous books, removing clues about her personal life concealed within, especially a horrific tragedy that befell her family years ago.

      Since wordpress.com doesn’t allow scripts I couldn’t use one of their widgets so I had to type up the html myself. I uploaded a copy of the LibraryThing logo to my blog and put the link to the logo and LibraryThing in a sidebar text widget.

    I have to tell you, The Eternal Ones had me plastered in my chair. I hope you like it as much as I did. I reviewed it on Bookworms Dinner, if you want to check it out.
    Enjoy your reading.
