In January, Mailbox Monday is being hosted by Rose City Reader.
Last week I received A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness. I can't wait to start this one - it's been compared to The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova, one of my very favourite novels.
I also received a book I bought from Book Depository. I saw The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie recommended somewhere (I think it was viaLibraryThing). This is the first book of a trilogy that just looked too good to pass by.
Last, but not least, I received five books from Cindy:
The Snow Globe by Sheila Roberts
Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball by Donita K. Paul
Finding Father Christmas and Engaging Father Christmas both by Robin Jones Gunnand:
Simon's Cat by Simon TofieldThanks for all the books, Cindy!

I adored Simon's Cat -- hope you do too!
I like the look of Simon's Cat.
Those should keep you busy for a while. My sister is reading - and loving - A Discovery of Witches.
Donna alot of people got Discovery of witches. I am sure you will enjoy it because I know you enjoyed the Historian.

Discovery of Witches sounds great. I will have to add this one to my WL:) Happy reading!
Hopefully I'll get the Witches book too!! Loving all your snow themed books!!
Discovery of Witches is one I'll definitely have to look for. I loved The Historian too. I just packed away The Blade Itself, but I hope to get to it one day.
Enjoy all your new books, Donna!
