Mailbox Monday ~ July 27th

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.

I’ve been in a bit of a writing slump the past couple of weeks. I have lots to say but the words are getting stuck in my head. I hate when that happens! Perhaps there were just too many July distractions this month.

A couple of print books arrived last week . . .

New Arrivals

Black-Eyed Susans by Julia Heaberlin from LibraryThing.
Shocking, intense, and utterly original, Black-Eyed Susans is a dazzling psychological thriller, seamlessly weaving past and present in a searing tale of a young woman whose harrowing memories remain in a field of flowers—as a killer makes a chilling return to his garden.

Not Black and White by G.A. Beller from Tandem Literary. This was a surprise arrival, but does sound interesting since I know a lot about Chicago politics.
A fictional account of many of the events that led to the meteoric rise of a local charismatic street politician to become America’s first African-American president, and the downfall and imprisonment of two consecutive governors in the State of Illinois, along with several of their most trusted advisors and cohorts.
