Three books showed up in my mailbox last week, so this is a legitimate
Mailbox Monday post. In addition, I used some of my
Reading Local contest winnings at
Annie Bloom's Books for three other great finds.
IN THE MAIL:
Paul Newman: A Life by Shawn Levy (from the
Internet Review of Books)
Homer & Langley by E.L. Doctorow (from
LibraryThing's Early Reviewer program)
Good for the Jews by Debra Spark (from my friends at the
University of Michigan Press)
FROM ANNIE BLOOM'S BOOKS:
The Naming of Names: The Search for Order in the World of Plants by Anna Pavord
Ex Libris: Confessions of a Common Reader by Anne Fadiman (recommended by my buddy Laura at
Artscatter)
Rereadings: Seventeen Writers Revisit Books They Love, edited by Anne Fadiman

I hope the Paul Newman book is good. He was a favorite of mine!
ReplyDeleteI loved Ex Libris and hope you do too. Good for the Jews looks interesting. Enjoy your books this week!
ReplyDeleteGood for the Jews has caught my attention. Will have to keep my eyes out for that one.
ReplyDeleteWell, the P.N. book starts off great and looks like it is going to go strong. I like it already.
ReplyDeleteGood For the Jews was a mailbox surprise, but it has caught my fancy. I hope to turn to it soon.
As soon as I finish Ex Libris, which I am particularly excited about.
Oh my gosh, Anne Fadiman's Ex Libris is one of my all time favorite books on books. It's wonderful. Hmmmm... maybe time for a reread.
ReplyDeletelooks like a good week in books. happy reading.
ReplyDeleteThose all look good. My mom would love the Paul Newman book!
ReplyDeleteYeah for Shawn Levy and his book about Paul Newman.
ReplyDeleteI can hear you laughing already about Ex Libris! Best not to share the part about eating sled dogs with your hubby.
You had a good haul! Happy reading!
