I got a lot of books this week, and I'm really excited to show them to you. Last weekend we had another Montreal Bloggers Meetup, and we got together talked about books, ereaders and traded books.


Here's what I got last week for review:

Death Plays Poker by Robin Spano (I loved Dead Politician Society) *Canadian Author

These came from Cindy from Cindy's Love of Books. Thank you!


This one came from Lucy from Moonlight Gleam's Bookshelf. Thank you!

    You have a nice eclectic mix of books! I'll be eager to see what you think of Crying Tree. I've had it on my list for quite some time but have yet to buy it.

    I'm not a fan of Cassie Claire, I kind of stop reading her books after the first three, IDK they were all the same to me lol

    This is the second time I see Dearly Departed this week and I'm getting ~curious~ about it:)

    What a great mailbox! I just know that you are going to love FatherMucker. It was such an inventive book, and the protagonist really won me over. Lots of other great stuff in there as well. I just got my first Jill Mansell book in the mail this week, and it looks like the perfect read for when I need a little something lighter. I hope you enjoy all your new additions!
