Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday! MM was created by Marcia at A girl and her books (fka The Printed Page), who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring meme (details here).
The wonderful Amused by Books is hosting in September. Please visit!
I was in Montana last week for work (see news story here and an interesting follow up piece on Slate here), so had the chance to "discover" a terrific used book store in Kalispell called The Bookshelf.
I found two books I've been looking for for a while now:
Emotionally Weird by Kate Atkinson. This is one of her non-mystery novels, from before she started her Jackson Brodie series.
First Love, Last Rites by Ian McEwan. This collection of short stories was McEwan's first published book.
Oooh, enjoy both!
ReplyDeleteI like that title, Emotionally Weird. That would definitely make me pick up the book to see what it is all about. Have a great week and enjoy your new books!
ReplyDeleteI have not heard of either of these. I hope you enjoy them both.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! Ian McEwan is kinda hit or miss for me.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued by Emotionally Weird. Enjoy your new books!
ReplyDeleteI love Montana! Both of those books look great - enjoy!
