In My Mailbox (June 12, 2011)

The weekly In My Mailbox post is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren. It is fun to see what everyone else gets in their mailboxes, shopping bags, and library visits. Click on the link to The Story Siren's site to see the rules and join in the fun.
 
I guarantee that your TBR pile will grow when you see all the wonderful books everyone gets. You will discover lots of great blogs and lots of books that you won't be able to live without.

I added nine books to the stacks - real and virtual - this week.
I got The Inheritance & Other Stories by Robin Hobb/Megan Lindholm. I have read a couple of her books and, when I saw this book at Amazon Marketplace for a cheap price, I decided to see what she did with short stories.

Hit List by Laurell K. Hamilton is the latest Anita Blake story. These are my guilty pleasure books. I need to know what is happening in Anita's life!
Next I got two books with the title Hexed.

Hexed by Kevin Hearne is the second in the Iron Druid Chronicles. Book 1 is sitting somewhere on my TBR mountain.

The second Hexed is an anthology with stories by Ilona Andrews and Jeanne C. Stein. Both are favorite authors.
I also got my latest batch from Amazon Vine for review.

The Twisted Thread by Charlotte Bacon is a psychological mystery about a murder at a boarding school. It looks to be both moody and literary.

The Devil in Disguise by Stefanie Sloane is a Regency romance filled with colorful period detail, evil villains, intrepid heroines, and romantic heroes.
I also got a couple more review books.

The Undertaker by William F. Brown is on my Kindle. The author emailed me the blurb and the book. It looks like an interesting mystery/thriller.

Deadly Sins by Kylie Brant arrived in my mailbox this week too. It is another mystery/thriller.
Last, I had to add Cotillion by Georgette Heyer to my Kindle. Sourcebooks was offering this one for free this week. I have read it because I am a big fan of Georgette Heyer's historical fiction but it will be nice to have a copy on my Kindle too. 

That was my mailbox. What did you get in yours?
