Mailbox Monday ~ March 9th

WelcomeBirdhouseMailbox-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.


 

A variety of formats arrived in my physical and virtual mailboxes last week…

    I read CRAZY LOVE YOU, so I can warn you: the first two-thirds of CRAZY LOVE YOU is the best kind of book, the kind that is unputdownable.

    Here’s what you need to know right up front so the book is as unputdownable for you as it was for me. Priss is not what she appears to be; she is a mystery throughout this book. And then so is Ian. Is he crazy? Is he good or dangerous? Is Priss dangerous? Or is she not even real?

    Problem with this book is that the last third degenerates to the supernatural and becomes just plain silly. It’s too easy to solve mysteries by blaming them on supernatural silliness.
