Mailbox Monday is a weekly meme created by Marcia at A Girl and Her Books and is being hosted all this month by Staci at Life in the Thumb.
I received a trade paperback of Death of the Mantis by Michael Stanley for an upcoming TLC Book Tour.
I received a hardcover of State Vs. Defense by Stephen Glain for review from PTA.
I received a trade paperback of Unforeseen Fears by William Gruchow from the author for review.
I won an ARC of Down the Mysterly River by Bill Willingham from Cecelia of The Adventures of Cecelia Bedelia.
I won a hardcover of Crime Fraiche by Alexander Campion from LibraryThing.
A hardcover of The Red House Mystery by A.A. Milne was a surprise delivery from the wonderful Becke of The Mysterious Garden Muse. She also happens to be the moderator of the Mystery forum on the Barnes & Noble book club site.
On my last trip to Borders, I picked up a trade paperback of The Town That Forgot How to Breathe by Kenneth J. Harvey and a paperback of Wielding a Red Sword by Piers Anthony.
From the Friends of the Library Book Store I picked up two hardcovers for $1 a piece. I've read Murder at the Library of Congress by Margaret Truman before, but I haven't read Murder on the Potomac.
Last night I stopped into Target to get a few things and found Big Business on DVD for only $2.
One of my birthday gifts was 4, Beyonce's new CD. I've never been a big fan of her ballads in the past, but she really impressed me with this one. Of course, the dance songs are up to her usual standards.

Wow, what a mailbox! You had a lot of great wins! Crime Fraiche looks interesting - I'm guessing it's a cozy set in France. Enjoy your new books (and CD)!
I've heard the Margaret Truman mysteries are quite good--maybe this will be my next mystery series. Enjoy your new books!
Down the Mysterly River sounds good, and I really like that cover. I look forward to reading your thoughts on it.
Great mailbox this week, Ryan! I love the cover on Crime Fraiche. Truman's mysteries are always well done. Have a great week and enjoy all your new books.
I love Beyonce! My favorite ballad of hers is Halo. Can't beat that amazing piano intro.
I am also doing the tour of Death of the Mantis and I just finished it yesterday. I really liked it!
Wonderful mailbox! That's a lot of reading/listening. Enjoy!
Some interesting wins and a great mailbox! enjoy them all.

Ryan, Once again, Thanks for your thoughts of concern for me during Hurricane Irene; I appreciate that.
Cool, a new Willingham book :D

Enjoy! your very interesting mailbox.
Wow, great mailbox! There are several you received that look interesting. I have The Town that Forgot to Breathe, but haven't read it yet, of course! I've never been a big fan of Beyonce, but some of her dance songs are okay.
Big Business...what a blast from the past!
Target can be a very bad place for me when I'm weak!!! We're both on the Death of the Mantis tour...sounds good doesn't it? Enjoy your other books!!
Wow, what a great list. Enjoy!
You win so many books, Ryan! Lady Luck is certainly smiling on you these days. :)
I'm jealous. In case you can't tell. Ha!
I'm dying to read the A.A. Milne mystery.
Great selection! Awesome find with Big Business! Such a fun movie! LOVE Bette Midler!
