Mailbox Monday ~ May 22nd

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.

Happy Monday! Despite the return of cool weather, it’s definitely springtime in my backyard.

Yesterday morning I noticed a lot of activity at one of my nest boxes. The baby sparrows were ready to go out on their own — one was out and hiding in the grass, and another had its head sticking out of the box, afraid to jump out. They can’t fly very well for the first few days and mostly hop around on the ground keeping the parents quite busy! Meanwhile, a robin was building a nest somewhere in the back of the yard.

Two new books this week, one audio and one print.

New Arrivals

The Destroyers by Christopher Bollen from Harper.
An enthralling odyssey and a gripping, expansive drama, The Destroyers is a vivid and suspenseful story of identity, power and fate, fathers and sons, and self-invention and self-deception, from a writer at the very height of his powers.

The Sixth Victim by Tessa Harris from Blackstone Audio.
London’s East End, 1888: When darkness falls, terror begins…
The foggy streets of London’s Whitechapel district have become a nocturnal hunting ground for Jack the Ripper, and no woman is safe.
