Mailbox Monday (58)

Another Mailbox Monday post coming at ya!

It's been a good week overall and I picked up a bunch of new books this week.  We're working on getting ready for my daughter's birthday in a few weeks so I'm not sure when I will have time to read everything but I'll try to fit them in when I can!  It's been super hot here this weekend so we've had lots of pool time this weekend; it's been so relaxing that I'm not sure I want to go back to work tomorrow!

Anyway, here is what I picked up this week.

It's time for another Mailbox Monday post!  Once again I could not resist the cheap ebooks that Amazon and Barnes and Noble were promoting this week.  I really need to stop!  I already have more than I can read.  I also was able to spend a little time browsing at the library and I came home with a nice stack of books.  These days, I hardly ever get to spend time at the library by myself for more than a minute or two so it was wonderful to have time to just wander and see what I could find. Purchased (for kindle): The Color of Secrets by Lindsay Ashford The One I Was by Eliza Graham House of Bathory by Linda Lafferty   Purchased (for nook): One Night in Winter by Simon Sebag Montefiore  Becoming Queen Victoria by Kate Williams From the Library: The Messenger by Daniel Silva   The Ripper's Wife by Brandy Purdy Hotel Moscow by Talia Carner Brazen by Katherine Longshore What books did you get...
