Hope all you mothers had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday. I enjoyed a relaxing, lazy day filled with movies, games, reading, and watching my husband do the laundry for me. Too bad it's all over. :(Now it's time for another Mailbox Monday, hosted by Marcia from The Printed Page, where we share the books we received in the mail for review, purchased, or otherwise obtained over the last week.
I'm being very selective with review copies and avoiding the book store these days, but I still managed to receive 4 books:
A Girl's Guide to Modern European Philosophy by Charlotte Greig (from Tony Viardo at BlueDot Literacy)
Mating Rituals of the North American WASP by Lauren Lipton (for a Hachette Early Birds Blog Tour later this month)
Tea & Other Ayama Na Tales by Eleanor Bluestein (a contest win from Savvy Verse & Wit...thanks, Serena!)
Bloody Good by Georgia Evans, the first in a paranormal trilogy set in England during WWII with Nazi vampires. There was no way I could turn down this book! (from Joan Schulhafer Publishing & Media Consulting)
What books have you welcomed into your home recently?
