Mailbox Monday

I am excited about my Mailbox Monday list this week. Even though none of these books actually came in the mail, they are three that I picked only because I want to read them. No obligation. No guilt. Paradise News by David Lodge (because I am on a David Lodge kick) Memoirs of the Ford Administration by John Updike (because I am always on an Updike kick) The Gathering by Anne Enright (because I do like to read the Booker Prize winners) .

    I have to admit, the cover on "Memories of the Ford Administration" is slightly creepy...

    The book about the Ford Administration looks interesting.

    These all look very interesting. I'm going to add The Gathering to my list.

    I am looking forward to The Gathering, but the other two are really appealing to me right now. Although I agree with A.C. that the cover on the Updike book is creepy. I don't know who the other half of the face is. Maybe I will learn when I read it.
