Mailbox Monday

Mailbox Monday has it’s very own blog, Mailbox Monday. For January, it is being hosted at Metro Reader.

I won the following 5 books from John over at The Book Mine Set as part of the Canadian Book Challenge 5.  I feel like I hit the jackpot!

I wasn’t crazy about his book Life With Pi but I have been wanting to give this one a try.

This one has been on my TBR since it first came out!

 This one has also been on my TBR since it was first published!

I hadn’t heard of this one until it was in the contest to win with the other books but it sounds great!

This isn’t a book I would normally read but there looks like there enough story in it to be appealing to me.  I’ll give it a try.

I received the following book unsolicited.

This isn’t in any of my prefered genres so I will find a good home for it.

Scavanger Hunt Clue: THE LEGACY OF EDEN by Nelle Davy

Posted by Teddyrose@1 on February 19, 2012
Posted in Excerpt • Guest Author 

This is the clue for my stop in the The Legacy of Eden by Nelle Davy Scavenger Hunt.  Good luck to you all!  You can read my review and enter the giveaway here.

The walls between my memories and reality are disintegrating and everything from my past that I have tried to push back, now rushes forward to escape.

Once while on the way to the bathroom, I passed my cousin Jude, who I have not seen since I was ten. He cracked a hand on the back of my legs. “Toothpicks,” he chortled; I gave him the finger.

Part of me is terrified. I wonder if I am losing my mind. But I find their intrusions oddly comforting. It is like turning up at a reunion I have been dreading only to remember all the things we had in common, all the memories that made us laugh, and I am reminded of a time when it was easy to be yourself.

At one point when I was flicking through the channels and stumbled on a soap opera my grandmother used to love, I hesitated. Even though I knew it was crap, and I have never watched it, I left it on for her, imagining she was behind me, waiting to hear her slip past and the soft creak of the wicker chair as she settled down to watch it. Tomorrow, click on the following link for the continuation of the scavenger hunt: http://mommyofamonster.com/ .
