Mailbox Monday ~ December 30th
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. Currently on tour, it is hosted by a different blog each month.
The December host is Rose City Reader.
Beginning in January the Mailbox Monday blog will be the permanent home for the meme.

I don’t read a lot of books that take place in Japan, but always seem to enjoy the ones I do, so for that reason I can’t help but be drawn to The Crane Wife.

Red Moon was a surprise arrival in my mailbox. I almost never receive unexpected books. Sad to say it’s not a genre I enjoy so I may pass it on to one of my nieces. I’ll watch for your review before I let it go though 😉
