In My Mailbox

Welcome to my new updated blog!

My blog has officially moved and my domain has changed to www.mrsqbookaddict.net. Ultimately, I didn't want to change my domain but it had to be done. I'm happy with the end result, and the options blogger has to offer. I should have done this from the beginning! I know it's a lot of work for right now, and i've lost all my subscribers but in the end it's a better option for myself and those visiting my blog.


This week, I recieved one book in the mail. Which is great considering Canada Post is on strike.

I recieved:


Birthday Pie by Arthur Wooten


I also did some ebook shopping!

The Karma Club by Jessica Brody
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishihuro
Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
Divergent by Veronica Roth I own the hardcover, but I love reading on my Sony Reader. Plus, my books stay new. :)








Marcia of The Printed Page for hosts Mailbox Monday. Mailbox Monday is now going on tour and this month (June) it will be hosted by Bluestocking Guide.
Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week (checked out library books don’t count, eBooks & audio books do). Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren.
We highlight what books we bought, received or picked up at the library.

    You had a great mailbox!!!

    Here is my Monday Update

    I put it in the news section of the podcast that your website changed. I inadvertantly created a link to the podcast rather than putting it on the same page. Live and learn.

    You're so BAD! You can crack open the hard copy Divergent!

    I so can not believe that you got a book via Canada Post! I so knew your mailman was in your pocket :)

    I'm surprised that you'd buy an e-book when you already own the hardcover, but when I think about it, it makes sense that you'll be able to carry it around more easily, and as you said, keep it new. Nice mailbox!

    I know that Canada Post strike has to be really frustrating. We lived through a mail strike in France and it was awful! Enjoy your new books!

    I'm really jealous right now (and shouldn't be ... I have tons of good books here to read still)- but I WANT Divergent, Sarah's Key, and Never Let Me Go.

    I know it was a pain to move your blog over, but I'm happy, because now I can comment without any problems! :)

    I found Never Let Me Go at the AAUW Used Book Sale in our town on Saturday. Should you read it between now and January, 2012, you would be completing the Japanese Literature Challenge 5 which I host ever year. If you're interested in Japanese Literature, of course. Looks like you have great books in your pile!

    The empty mailbox is so depressing! Let's hope this strike ends soon. Enjoy your books!
