Mailbox Monday ~ December 1st

WinterBirdsMailbox-smlWelcome 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.


 

The blog has been quite the past week – life and other obligations sometimes get in the way. I still have time to listen to some audio though. Here’s what arrived last week…

New Arrivals

    Hi Leslie,

    Murakami, is one of those authors who has been on my radar for some time, although I have yet to read any of his work. He seems to have a style which you either love or hate, but will always find intriguing. Of course, being set in a library (albeit a strange one), your featured book has even more appeal. I shall be interested to see what you think about it, there have been one or two ‘interesting’ reviews so far:)

    Thanks for sharing and enjoy the rest of your week,

    Yvonne
