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’m a little late in posting this morning, but I still wanted to share some new audiobooks I downloaded last week. I’ve been listening a lot more than reading, and I’m looking forward to listening to these while I finally get some of my garden planted. Now it just needs to stop raining!

New Arrivals

Paper Ghosts by Julia Heaberlin from PRH Audio.

A gripping thriller about a man who may or may not have dementia – and who may or may not be a serial killer – from a master of twists and turns, in the tradition of Laura Lippman and Gillian Flynn.

Love and Ruin by Paula McLain from PRH Audio.

The Order of Time by Carlo Rovelli from PRH Audio.

Why do we remember the past and not the future? What does it mean for time to “flow”? Do we exist in time or does time exist in us? In lyric, accessible prose, Carlo Rovelli invites us to consider questions about the nature of time that continue to puzzle physicists and philosophers alike.

The Soul of America: The Battle for Our Better Angels by by Jon Meacham from PRH Audio.

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jon Meacham helps us understand the present moment in American politics and life by looking back at critical times in our history when hope overcame division and fear.

We have had a burst of color the past few days as every living tree has turned green and perennial has popped out of the ground and started to boom. Unfortunately along with it comes pollen and spring allergies, but I am so happy to finally see some color that I will try and overlook the itchy eyes and runny nose! And now if it will stop raining I will finally get my veggie garden seeded.

Last week I mentioned I had several pet bird emergencies and this week was no different. This time a lovebird at the shelter got its toe bit by a larger bird. No, we don’t let them interact, but sometimes birds get away from a volunteer while cleaning, and they can be pretty fast. I am one of the volunteers that does transport to the vet and foster care for injured birds in my home. So, off to the vet we went. Poor little guy lost his toe and is recovering at home here with me. I did manage to get some reading done in the waiting room!

A few new books arrived last week. . .
