Mailbox Monday -- January 19

Another Mailbox Monday, hosted by Marcia of The Printed Page, where we list the books we bought or received over the past week.

I received only a few last week. I'm being very picky when it comes to review copies, as I have a bunch that still must be read. Here's what I got:

The Triumph of Deborah by Eva Etzioni-Halevy (from the author)

Flirting With Forty by Jane Porter (a contest win from Wendi's Book Corner...thanks Wendi!)

Gold Dust on His Shirt: The True Story of an Immigrant Mining Family by Irene Howard (from Mini Book Expo for Bloggers)

What did you receive last week?

The Gold Dust on His Shirt sounds interesting. Flirting with Forty was a fun fluff read.

I've got The Triumph of Deborah, too. It's been on the stacks for a while, so it's way up on the TBR list!

I just saw a movie preview this weekend for Flirting With Forty. I thought it was based on book, but wasn't sure. Now I know. :-) Enjoy your new books!

I received (from myself) YOU: Being Beautiful for my Kindle.

I have read The Triumph Of Deborah. It is one of those books you just can't put down. I know you'll love it, Anna.

Thank you for stopping by the 'mailbox' this week. Of the 3 JP books I've read 'Flirting with Forty' has been my favorite though all were good.
