Mailbox Monday for 11/7/11


Mailbox Monday is a weekly meme created by Marcia at A Girl and Her Books and is being hosted all this month by her Mailbox Monday Blog.


I won a trade paperback of The Handmaid's Tale from Alexis at Reflections of a Bookaholic during the Banned Book Week Giveaway Hop.


I received a trad paperback of The Doll by Daphne du Maurier for an upcoming TLC Book Tour.

I picked up The Handmaid's Tale a couple of months ago and have been wanting to read it but I just haven't been in the right mood. Though it's definitely a priority.

The Handmaid's Tale is a terrific book! Enjoy. I can't believe I have never heard of The Doll by DuMaurier --need to check that one out. Hope you have a great week Ryan.

I have been meaning to read The Handmaids Tale for a while, I have heard it it really good. Hope you enjoy it!

I've never heard of The Doll either. I had The Hnadmaid's Tale for a long time, but couldn't remember if I read it in college, which I think I did, or only saw the movie. I think it ended up getting donated at some point when I was trying to dig my house out from underneath books!

Not an Atwood fan but The Doll sounds wonderful. I just love Daphne DuMaurier. Enjoy your new books, Ryan, and have a great week.

Two good ones! I keep meaning to read The Handmaid's Tale because it is on a couple of book lists I'm working through. Thanks for the reminder!

The Handmaids Tale was my first taste of Atwood. Found it strange and interesting.

I haven't heard of The Doll either. But I do have a copy of The Handmaiden's Tale that I picked up at a used book sale. I did see the movie and one of these days will read the book.

I have been such a bad blogger bestie. I'm sorry, Ryan. =O(

I have owned A Handmaid's Tale for years and I can't believe I still have not read it. I have The Doll on order right now. I loved her short stories we read for TuesBookTalk. Hoping these will be good too.
