Mailbox Monday: April 12


Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week. (Checked out library books don’t count, but eBooks & audio books do). Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists!


Week 3 without a book purchase, but I feel my resolve fading fast!
I did receive two very cool looking ARCs this week:


 
My Name Is Memory
ARC from Riverhead Books via Shelf Awareness. To be published June 1, 2010 by the Penguin Group. 324 pages. From the back cover: The story of a love that lasts more than a lifetime. This new novel of reincarnated love and the immortality of memory is Ann's most imaginative, inspired, magical book to date.

Still MissingARC from St. Martin's Press via Shelf Awareness. To be published July 2010. 342 pages. From the back cover:  Chevy Stevens "pulls out all the stops" in this shocking, visceral, brutal, and beautifully crafted story of an abducted woman, her year held captive, and an escape that is just the beginning.


Mailbox Monday is hosted by The Printed Page.

    I've seen both books on mailbox lists today. Hope you enjoy them. Of the two, the first appeals to me more.

    Those look great! My Name Is Memory sounds a little like The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson. I loved that one!
