Mailbox Monday ~ July 14th
Welcome to Mailbox Monday, created by Marcia of To Be Continued, a place where readers share the books that came in their mailbox during the last week.
After several years of being on tour with different blogs as the monthly host, the Mailbox Monday Blog is now the permanent home for the meme.
Here’s what arrived last week:
Print Books
Stone Mattress: Nine Tales by Margaret Atwood from Doubleday.
Margaret Atwood turns to short fiction for the first time since her 2006 collection, “Moral Disorder,” with nine tales of acute psychological insight and turbulent relationships.
The Clairvoyant of Calle Ocho by Anjanette Delgado from Kensington Books.
With warmth, wit, and insight, award-winning author Anjanette Delgado explores one woman s flawed but heartfelt attempt to live and love well, transporting listeners to the center of contemporary Little Havana and a community of uniquely human, unforgettable characters.
Audio Downloads
The Good Girl by Mary Kubica from Blackstone Audio through AudioBook JukeBox.
An addictively suspenseful and tautly written thriller, The Good Girl is a compulsive debut that reveals how even in the perfect family, nothing is as it seems.
Life Drawing by Robin Black from Random House Audio.
In “Life Drawing”, her gorgeously written first novel, Robin Black unfolds a fierce, honest, and moving portrait of a woman, and of a couple’s life – the betrayals and intimacies, the needs and regrets, the secrets that sustain love and the ones that threaten to destroy it.
How was your week?

Hi Leslie,
I had no idea that Margaret Attwood had written a short story collection, so that definitely sounds worth checking out and I lovely that particular cover art version.
Both of your audio books also sound like winners, although I would have to acquire them in print or e version, as I don’t get along with audion books at all.
You have a great selection this week and I hope that you enjoy them all,
Yvonne
