Mailbox Monday August 12, 2013

Welcome to Mailbox Monday.
For AUGUST: the Mailbox Monday Tour host is Penelope @ The Reading Fever. If Penelope doesn't post then the the link will be at Bermudaonion (thanks Kathy).
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 received two audiobooks for review and I picked up the free audio titles from SYNC YA. 

Are your mailbox and TBR piles blooming?

Review Titles
I received two Audio titles from Audiobook Jukebox for review.

Title: Death of a Dyer
Author: Eleanor Kuhns
Narrator: Richard Waterhouse
Publisher/Date: AudioGO, 06/18/13
At the Bowditch farmstead, Rees quickly discovers that everyone--from Nate's frosty wife to his missing son to the shy serving girl--is hiding something. But are any of them actually capable of murder? Or does the answer lie elsewhere, behind stones no one even knew needed un-turning?

and



Title: Paradox Resolution
Author: K.A. Bedford
Narrator: Cameron McDonald 
Publisher/Date: Post Hypnotic Press
Aloysius “Spider” Webb fixes time machines for a living. He hates his job; he hates his life, and hates time travel even more. He simply wants to get on with his life. He’s a hard working ­Australian bloke — a good man in a bad ­situation who is willing to do almost anything to regain his self-respect and the affection of his nearly ­ex-wife, Molly; a mad sculptress on her way to international fame and fortune.
