Boy, the weekend sure goes by fast! Between going to the movies to see Inglourious Basterds with Serena, finishing up school shopping for The Girl (she goes back on the 31st), and getting an emergency visit from the plumber (at least the leasing office arranged and paid for it), I didn't have much time to relax.But now it's time for another Mailbox Monday, kindly hosted by Marcia from The Printed Page, where bookish folk share the books they received in the mail, checked out of the library, purchased, or otherwise obtained over the last week. I missed last week because I was sick, so here's what I received over the last two weeks:
One Scream Away by Kate Brady, a contest win from Pudgy Penguin Perusals
I received the first four Betsy-Tacy books from HarperCollins for an upcoming TLC Book Tour:
Betsy-Tacy by Maud Hart Lovelace
Betsy-Tacy and Tib by Maud Hart Lovelace
Betsy and Tacy Go Over the Big Hill by Maud Hart Lovelace
Betsy and Tacy Go Downtown by Maud Hart Lovelace
The Day the Falls Stood Still by Cathy Marie Buchanan, from Hyperion via LibraryThing Early Reviewers
Soul Survivor: The Reincarnation of a World War II Fighter Pilot by Bruce and Andrea Leininger with Ken Gross, from Hachette

My husband is dying to see Inglourious Basterds (or however they butchered the spelling!). You have a great set of books...I've got Night of Flames waiting in the wings as well!
Those Betsy books looks cute :)
And a great mailbox in general. Happy reading
I have Soul Survivor in my tbr and reviewed pile. Can't wait to see what you think about it.
I can't wait to see what you think of Soul Survivor.
My daughter just loves the Betsy Tacy books. Can't wait to hear what you and the girl think!
Betsy and friend are busy little bees, aren't they? Soul Survivor looks good. Glad you got One Scream Away okay. I hope you enjoy it. Have a good week!
I really enjoyed Night of Flames when I read it earlier this year. Hope you do to.
I've read many good reviews for The Day the Falls Stood Still. Hope you enjoy it!
I think I've read Kate Bailey before, the name rings a bell. Lots of good books for you this week. Happy reading!
Wow you got some awesome books! I'll have to check back for the reviews.
I also have an award for you :0)

Great Mailbox. I have a few of these too! Can't wait to clear my head and READ.
I just finished The Day the Falls Stood Still and it's fantastic. I really enjoyed it. Happy Reading.
I got the Betsy-Tacy books as well and I bet you and The Girl will enjoy them! I never read them as a young girl and look forward to reading them now. I also got The Day the Falls Stood Still from LT Early Reviewers, I believe. I didn't receive a letter this time as I usually do with a book from them..did you?
Thanks everyone for stopping by my mailbox!
~Jeanne: LOVED IT! My review with Serena is here.
~Natalie: Thank you! You're so kind.
~Bonnie: Nope, no letter, but I've never received one with a book from Hyperion.
