For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia at A Girl and Her Books. Mari of Mari Reads is hosting for the month of May.
I received one book in my mailbox!
Far to Go by Alison Pick: tells the story of an affluent Czech Jewish family at the onset of the Second World War. The lives of Pavel and Anneliese Bauer are observed through the adoring but misguided eyes of their son’s governess, Marta. A second, unnamed voice addresses the reader from the present. Part mystery, part love story, Far to Go asks question about the legacy of secrecy and answers them with incredible heart. It is a beautifully written book that appeals not only to the history buff but to anyone who has loved deeply and lost.

Ooo, I'm interested in The Lincoln Lawyer, it sounds good!
Please feel free to stop by my Monday :)
How'd you find The Lincoln Lawyer, I'm umming and ahhing about whether to hire it out or not!
What did you think of the Lincoln Lawyer. I'm on the fence about trying Michael Connelly.
Far to Go sounds good. Did you like Caribou Island? I read it, but it was so dark and chilling.
Far To Go does sound like a good read. I can't wait to see what you think of it.
Far to Go is going on the WL.
Liked Lincoln Lawyer a lot but LOVE his Harry Bosch books and am always snatching them up first. Happy reading!
Have to read more on this one since it's new to me.
You always open up my little corner in the world of reading ;)
I hope you love Far to Go as much as I did!
Did you like The Lincoln Lawyer? I really did and picked up the next book featuring Mickey Haller. Not sure about the movie though. Don't think the casting is right. But will probably get it at Red Box when it's $1.
Far To Go sounds good to me, enjoy it.
Far to go sounds great. Enjoy your book!
Far To Go sounds like it could be very good. I'll watch for your review!
Thanks for stopping by! I really want to read the Lincoln Lawyer before I see the movie, but my husband says I always hate the movie after I have read the book because I know what's going to happen and all the things that were left out or changed. lo
Far to Go looks tempting...and The Lincoln Lawyer made a great movie. Need to read the book.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Far to Go looks like a wonderful read! Everyone seems to like The Lincoln Lawyer as well! I'm interested in your thoughts on Caribou Island - it was an excellent read for me, but very dark. Enjoy your reading week!
