My reading mojo is back and I'm so happy.  I have barely read since mid-March and I had a great week last week.  Some really good books by new authors, like Flaherty's Crossing and then some new books by old standbys like Harlan Coben's Caught.  Here's hoping this coming week is just as good!

Mailbox Monday is hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page. To see this weeks list of participants go here.
 
I didn't participate last week - I had a lot going on, so this is my summary for the last two weeks.  Lots of great books and I am having a hard time putting these books away and reading the ones next up on my review list.


The Kindle books this week are for the YA Battle of the Books that starts this week.  It is hosted at The Shady Glade and I'm excited about being a part of this.

Weekend Wondering - Pick a book for review

I'm out walking with mom and boys this morning in the local Cystic Fibrosis Great Strides Walk.  We've been looking forward to this for weeks so I know we are enjoying ourselves.

Thanks for the great ideas for guest posts - they were very helpful and I will be incorporating them in the future.  Now I am excited about having guest posts. 

Last week's winner is:   Bookie

If you see this before I email later today, please email me with your choice from here and your addy.

So my weekend wondering this week is simple, I'm a little behind on some of my review reading due to a reading slump.  The reading slump has passed and I have some time to play catch-up before my next reviews are due.  So my question for this weekend is which book would you like to see reviewed?  Comment below for a chance to win a selection from my giveaway shelf.  Open through April 30 and giveaway limited to US/Canada only.
