A big thank you to Marcia at A Girl and Her Books for originating Mailbox Monday. This weekly meme is now on tour with a new host each month. December’s host is Let Them Read Books. The Tour Stops for 2012 are already posted and I look forward to meeting some new blog owners.
Some of these I picked up as reads while vacationing in North Carolina. I actually spent most of my time reading my Kindle with a paperback or two thrown in for good measure.
The Cookie Swap Cookbook by Gooseberry Patch. This was a free ebook that’s very appropriate for this time of year.
Jenny Pox by J. L. Bryan. A paranormal story about a girl who can’t touch anyone or else they’ll get the pox and die.
A Touch of Greek: Out of Olympus by Tina Folsom. Described as a romantic comedy, Titan is cast out of Olympus and can only re-enter once he finds a woman who loves him for his personality.
And So It Goes: Kurt Vonnegut: A Life by Charles J. Shields. I haven’t read much of Vonnegut’s work but he’s certainly someone who shaped modern literature and I want to know more about him.
What arrived in your mailbox this week?
I don’t think I’ve ever read Vonnegut, but I’d like to read his biography just because I love that genre. I’ll be curious to see what you think of it.
I think the older I get, the more I like biographies and autobiographies.
