Mailbox Monday December 24, 2012

Welcome to Mailbox Monday.
FOR DECEMBER: the Mailbox Monday Tour host is Suko's Notebook!

Mailbox Monday is a gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week and explore great book blogs.  This Meme started with Marcia at A Girl and Her Books (fka The Printed Page) but is now hosted at Mailbox Monday and through various blog hosts.

Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists. 


I didn't get to post while on the cruise and I was too late for last week. So this covers several weeks during which I added more review books as well as holiday gifts from authors and publishers AND I even purchased a number of eBooks (too much free time on the computer during vacation!) 
How are your mailbox and TBR piles doing?
