Burglars & Blintzes by Morgan C. Talbot. This is the second book in Talbot's Moorehaven Mysteries series featuring Pippa Winterbourne, owner of a bed-and-breakfast/writers' retreat on the Oregon coast.
The Girl Inside Me: Poems by Javelin Hardy. Hardy draws on her training and experience as a therapist to tell her own story of recovery from abuse in this beautiful book of poetry.
Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday, a weekly "show & tell" blog event where participants share the books they acquired the week before. Visit the Mailbox Monday website to find links to all the participants' posts and read more about Books that Caught our Eye.
Mailbox Monday is graciously hosted by Leslie of Under My Apple Tree, Serena of Savvy Verse & Wit, and Martha of Reviews by Martha's Bookshelf.
I like the idea of bed and breakfast/writer's retreat mysteries. Tempting.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy both books. Happy Reading!
Oooh, a poetry collection! Lovely! This week, I scored a Penguin List from 1962 (their complete catalogue of available books, it's amazing - like a time capsule!), and a copy of The Heat Of The Day by Elizabeth Bowen (I've been scouring my local secondhand stores for *months* looking for it!). I'm a happy chappy!
ReplyDeleteMartha: It is an interesting twist on the culinary cozy, to have the mystery writer theme added in there. I like it.
ReplyDeleteSheree: Nice to see you here too! A 1962 Penguin catalog would make me crazy. I would be compulsive! I loved Heat of the Day.
