Mailbox Monday: Memorial Day edition

Hey y'all,

Happy Memorial Day!  I hope you've had a lovely holiday weekend.  I'm writing to you now from my hometown of Washington, DC, where I arrived this afternoon.  I have so much to blog about, but it's going to take me a while to catch up.  For starters, I'll tell you that the Book Blogger Con and the rest of my time in NY was awesome!  I promise to post about everything soon.  But first, an abreviated Mailbox Monday post.


Since I'm visiting with friends and family here in DC, I loaded a ridiculous number of books into my luggage to give away down here.  In many cases I have multiple copies, but here are the books I brought to give away:

• Dead Reckoning by Charlaine Harris
• Martin Misunderstood by Karin Slaughter
• All Things at Once by Mika Brzezinski
• The Forgotten Waltz by Anne Enright
• Tension City: Inside the Presidential Debates, from Kennedy-Nixon to Obama-McCain by Jim Lehrer
• Lot's Return to Sodom by Sandra Brannan
• The Swerve: How the World Became Modern by Stephen Greenblatt
• The Little Women Letters by Gabrielle Donnelly
• In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin by Erik Larson
• Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion
• Spa Deadly by Louise Gaylord
• Sugar in my Bowl: Real Women Write About Real Sex by Erica Jong
• Great House by Nicole Krauss
• The Taker by Alma Katsu
• The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin

So, those are the first few books from BEA.  The boxes I shipped should be waiting for me next Monday.  It should be an interesting list.  And I think that's all for now.  More soon!
