Uhm...Hoo-ray.

I got two free books in the mail today. I had been waiting for them for about two days. Because that's as long as I've known about them. I got an e-mail from the "Tell Harlequin" Panel people saying they'd sent me a package of two books. I was thrilled. :)

One is Around-the-Clock Protector, by Jan Hambright. & The other is Manhunt in the Wild West, by Jessica Andersen. After reading the back cover descriptions, I decided to read the Jan Hambright first. I've got a lot of other reading to finish first, but I hope to get these read and send my thoughts to "Tell Harlequin" before the end of the month. :)

Recently Received.

I was going to do the Mailbox Monday yesterday, but I completely forgot. So, here they are now, books I've recently received in the mail. :) Yay.

Little Stories, by Jeff Roberts:

I can't wait to get into this promising collection of stories. I'm not really a short story kind of girl, but I could not pass this one up. Read an excerpt over at amazon.com by clicking the "Look Inside" feature. :) I plan to read and review within the next two weeks, so look out for it!

Forever Lily: An Unexpected Mother's Journey to Adoption in China, by Beth Nonte Russell:

I've always had an interest in adoption stories, and right now I have a particular interest in China, I've never read any adoption stories before though, so I'm not quite sure what to expect. Going by other reviews this looks like a good one. Also planning on reading and reviewing within the next two weeks. :)

Also, I broke down last week (could not wait until Christmas!) and bought the second book in Sadie Montgomery's Phoenix of the Opera Series: Out of the Darkness: The Phantom's Journey. I am anxiously awaiting it's arrival in the mail. Hopefully tomorrow, since today is Veterans Day and there's no mail delivery today.
