Mailbox Monday ~ July 21st
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:

The Sleepwalker’s Guide looks interesting. I like the cover.
I still haven’t tried any audio books. I used to listen to the on my way to work, but since I retired I am not in the car long enough and I can’t sit down long enough at home.
ENJOY your reading week.

I never sit and listen. I use my mp3 player and listen while doing household chores or gardening.
