This is my first Mailbox Monday this month. A big thank you to Bermudaonion at Bermudaonion’s Weblog for hosting Mailbox Monday this month.
My husband made his annual trip to Toronto for work and brought me back two books this year. He either picks out a book I’ll like with an interesting Canadian cover or something written by a Canadian. This year both books fall into the second category.
Fall On Your Knees by Ann-Marie MacDonald. It’s about four sisters in Canada before, during and after World War I.
A Man in Uniform by Kate Taylor is the other book. A femme fatale lures a lawyer into helping her friend, an army captain convicted of espionage. This one takes place in France.
Anna from Hachette Book Group sent me a copy of Oogy by Larry Levine for review. Larry and his twin boys went to the animal hospital to euthanize their ailing cat. While in the lobby an odd looking white dog launches himself at them to claim this family as his own.Â
The last book is an urban fantasy e-book written by H.P. Mallory sent me for review. It’s the first book in the Dulcie O’Neil series. Dulcie is a fairy working as a law enforcer to keep the Netherworld from wreaking havoc in the human world. Dulcie is the last person to see a warlock alive and must prove her innocence in To Kill A Warlock.
What arrived in your mailbox this week?
I enjoyed Oogy, I hope you do too! (my review is going up Wednesday).
Have a great reading week!
WWI is one of the time periods that really interests me, so Fall On Your Knees caught my eye. Happy reading!
You had a great week – Oogy looks like a good one to me.
Sounds like you got some good books! Happy reading!
Sounds like some interesting books! Hope you like them.
